Cutting your own vinyl lettering and images is really easy with the Cricut but so many people don't try it because it looks a bit intimidating.  I made a video to show you just how simple it is to do.  On the video I am cutting out letters to put on a bucket I got from the Target $1 spot.  Did you see the vinyl on the vase from yesterday?   I'm sensing a theme.  I wonder what else I can find from there to adhere my vinyl to?

Enjoy the video and me in all of my Cricut demonstrator glory.
