Iron-on
Iron-on or Heat Transfer Vinyl (HTV) is used to adhere vinyl to a project or material with heat.  This could include anything from t-shirts and bags, to wooden signs and leather earrings.  

 Iron-on vinyl is very versatile. 

 To apply iron-on vinyl, you would want to have a heat press of some sort.  I personally use the Cricut EasyPress 2 for all my iron-on projects.  Head here to learn more about the Cricut heat press.


Paper
Many crafters start using Cricut cutting machines because they want to create beautiful paper crafts.  That's how I started years ago in my classroom.  

 From handmade cards to easy birthday decorations, there are so many great Cricut cutting materials you can try.

Fabric and Fibers
I LOVE to use my Cricut to cut out fabrics!!  It is easy, fast and accurate.  Both the Cricut Explore and the Cricut Maker can cut fabric.  

 The Explore requires the Cricut bonded fabric blade.  The Maker requires the Rotary Blade.

 You are limited on fabrics with the Explore, but you can cut fabrics.  Check out All About the Cricut Rotary Blade to teach you a bit more about cutting with fabric.
