Easy Cricut Project Ideas: Cards
I think cards are one of the easiest Cricut projects you can make. Cricut agrees with me, as that’s the first project that comes with your new Cricut, too! Here are several super easy Cricut card projects you can make:
Easy Layered Cards
Inspired by the “first project” that comes with your Cricut, these easy layered cards are easy to cut and assemble. There are two sets of 12 greeting cards for 24 total cards. You need just two pieces of cardstock to make each card, and they are super adorable! The cards cover a variety of occasions and holidays—you could easily print out the whole set and have a card on hand for nearly anything. Oh, and each card has slots inside for gift cards! You can get both set 1 and set 2 free!
This is one of the best easy Cricut project ideas!
Butterfly Card
This butterfly card is easy to assemble but looks amazing! You can make it with whatever color wings you like. And the fun part is how the wings flutter when you open the card. Get the free tutorial and files for the butterfly card Cricut project.
Butterfly Canvas
This beautiful piece of artwork looks so much harder than it actually is, meaning you can have a fun making an easy project but impress everyone with it! You just cut out the little butterflies and apply them on the canvas in the shape of a heart. I have a whole tutorial that works you through it, step by step, too! Get the full tutorial and files for the butterfly heart canvas here.
Easy Cricut Project Ideas: Vinyl Projects
Beyond paper, you can cut a variety of different types of vinyl on your Cricut for a lot of fun projects. Here are some of my favorite vinyl ideas:
