I am so excited about the Cricut Machine that I just acquired. I am going to use it for my next project. This is going to be another ornament since Christmas Season is fast approaching. It’s the Joy Bell Ornament made with the Cricut Machine.
For some of you who don’t know what is Cricut machine. This is a machine where a computer or a smart mobile is used to control it to create cutouts made of paper, boards, cloth, felt, vinyl, and even certain woods to make crafts.
