I've been scrapbooking for more than thirteen years and making crafts since I was a little girl.
I hope you enjoy these and future videos as I share tips and techniques. Be sure to sign-up for my free newsletter to keep abreast of new postings and other free resources I will be making available.
These videos were made with the original Sure Cuts A Lot version. I will soon be releasing new videos with SCAL 2.0. SCAL 2.0's layout is slightly different with more features.
Cut Personal Designs & Drawings with your Cricut
Did you know you can cut your own drawings and design with any Cricut? All you need is the right software on your computer and a USB cable to connect it to your Cricut.

Save Money on Chipboard Shapes & Fonts
Chipboard is a great way to add dimension and depth to your scrapbook pages. But, you can spend a lot of money on it over time.
In addition, chipboard work can be pretty time consuming.
Sure Cuts A Lot has a great multi-cutting feature that lets you cut your own chipboard shapes and fonts with your Cricut.
Make your own chipboard designs quickly and freely - that's what I do
One of My Favorite Features
Sure Cuts A Lot has cool features and one I really love is the ability to work with fonts and shapes naturally, creatively and efficiently.
Watch how easily you can move, stretch, widen and rotate characters even if they're in the middle of a word!
Even if you already use Cricut Design Studio and own many cartridges, you owe it to yourself to add Sure Cuts A Lot your collection of tools.
It's "Show & Tell" Day
When I began to share that you can truly cut thousands of free fonts and shapes with your Cricut using Sure Cuts A Lot, I received emails asking if it was for real.
Well, believe it!
Watch as I quickly set-up the word "fun" using a font called "Raavie", add a star shape at the end from a wingding font and then cut them - as ONE cut because of a great "welding" feature.
Goodbye Pricey Cricut Cartridges II
The very same evening I discovered Sure Cuts A Lot, I had spent $150 earlier in the day for three font cartridges at a nearby craft store. Ouch!
I'm a pretty smart shopper and was a little "tweaked" when I realized I could have saved that money plus gas plus my time.
In this video, I share an example of a single cut made with a free font and a cool "shadow" feature that will give your work a three-dimensional feel.
Sure Cuts A Lot Overview
In this video, I provide you with a brief overview of the original Sure Cuts A Lot software and compare it to Cricut Design Studio.
As you will see, the "Sure Cuts A Lot" software is easy to use, intuitive and well organized.
What's more, you can use thousands of free fonts, dingbats and shapes without the need of any additional cartridges.
I will soon be releasing new videos about SCAL 2.0.
Happy scrapping,
