    Thank you, Jennifer! Especially about the reminder of "Don't overstock on stuff"!!! Your idea of "purchase what you need for the project you have" is the best advice!!!! Being a 'collector of stuff', that was the best advice! I tend to hoard and therefore have a file cabinet full of scrapbooking paper from when my niece and nephew were born, 22 and 23 years ago!! I have a ton of paper to practice with and now is the time for me to actually get busy and use it up!!!! Loved video 1 and now 2! Just waiting for #3 today!!

    Thank you, Jennifer, for being a great teacher. I teach middle school and bought my Air Explore 2 to create fun bulletin boards and items for my classroom. However, I was quickly overwhelmed by all the details in making projects using my ipad. You are so easy to understand and give great advice. Your visuals and demos are very helpful as well. I look forward to learning more from you.

    One concern I do have is the plastic waste accumulated from using vinyl, as I don't think it's recyclable. What do you do with your vinyl waste? Do you have any tips as far as environmental considerations?
    Thank you again!

I'll try to create as little waste as I can to begin with, and probably stick to cardstock for the most part. Thanks again and take care :)

    Question: Can the Cricut infusible ink transfer sheets once cut be transferred onto polymer clay and baked in a toaster oven?

    • @JenniferMaker

      Infusible Ink needs a high polyester count to be infused into the material with heat.

    I just purchased a used Explorer 1 for my first Cricut machine. I can't find much information about it. Trying to find the pen adapter, all the ones I find mention it fits the Air 2 and Air 3 and Maker series, but doesn't say it will fit Explorer 1. Does the Explorer 1 have its own line of tools, like the Joy does, or if it fits the Air 2 and 3, it will fit the Explorer 1?

    • @JenniferMaker
      @JenniferMaker  18 дней назад

      No, the Cricut Explore 1 does not have its own unique line of tools; essentially, if a tool fits the Explore Air 2 and 3, it will also fit the Explore 1, as they all share the same basic compatibility with blades and tools across the Explore series.
