*CRICUT EXPLORE 3* | Everything You NEED to Know!

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Did you know that the new Cricut Explore 3 can cut up to two times faster than the previous models and it features matless cutting with Smart Materials?
When I first heard about this new machine, I could not wait to get my hands on them! Whether you just purchased your machine or you are still deciding if this machine is right for you, this video is for you!
After testing out the Explore 3, I’m ready to share everything you need to know about the machine as well as a few of my tips and tricks with you. In this post, I’ll teach you all about Smart Materials, Explore 3 updates, and the Cricut Roll Holder.
A big thanks to JOANN for sponsoring this video and sending me the new Cricut Explore 3 to test out and review!
The Explore 3 is available for purchase online starting June 10th and in stores on June 27th!
