I just got a cricut for my sewing business, but realized there's sooo much I can do for my wedding! My biggest thing I'm excited about is being able to address the invitation envelopes in a very pretty don't without spending the money to get them done by shutterfly. I'm so stoked because my handwriting is awful. I also have so many things lined up to do for cebterpieces and name cards!

    I love my Cricut! I will say that I would pass on using it to address envelopes unless you don’t have a printer and have tons of free time. It took approximately 3-4 minutes per envelope and if you use anything besides a writing font, you’ll have to fill the letters in by hand. We did a test run with the Cricut, but ultimately decided to just print directly on the envelopes and took about 45 minutes for 75 envelopes.

    Cricuts are amazing! I don't have one, but my two best friends do, and the things they're able to create for everything is just awesome. Saves a TON of money too!

    I didn't think about just printing onto envelopes. I will have to figure out how to do that with my printer. I do have place cards that I want to make.

    And some hacks,

    if you get a pencil grips you know the colored one for kids to use, put that in your A holder on the circuit you can then use sharpies in there so your Cricut can draw with them saving money on the circuit markers,

    Use a spray adhesive for your mat when they become less sticky saving you money from having to rebuy mats

    the glad press and seal bags and contact paper works great as the transfer tape alternatives so you don't have to waste 10 on a roll,

    remember the whole in the mat goes in the machine first

    you can also switch colors on design space

    there is so much you can create for your wedding even robes for your bridesmaids

    and you can use it for your bridal party gifts too.

    My bff that has a small but growing crafty business bought one this week and I’m pretty sure the reception is going to be filled to the brim with it!
    She’s so excited. She has a storefront so she’ll be testing out signs and decor with my info as displays in her stores, so it’s a win win.
    I don’t think she has slept for two nights!

    I love my Cricut! I did my envelopes with it and it is definitely a labor of love. I worked on them for a month or so, doing a few a day. I also did all my signage, but haven’t gotten to utilize those thanks to Covid. Have so much fun!
