>> Simple Design Walkthrough

To start, check out the Cricut from the DSI desk,

plug in the power cord and the USB and turn on the Cricut

 

First, choose your cutting material and place it on the sticky cutting mat.

(The cutting mat holds the material in place while the Cricut makes the cuts.) 

Then, load the mat into the machine using the double arrow button.

Always load material into the Cricut using a mat, do not load material into the machine without one.

Next, choose a design in Cricut Design Space.

Select your material settings, and send the design to your Cricut cutting machine.

Press the button on your Cricut machine to start cutting

Do not put your hands inside or on the machine while it is moving

.

After the machine is done cutting, remove the mat from the machine, and the material from the mat.
