Ew, David Coffee Mug and 3 Simple Projects You Can Make with Cricut Joy

Why do I need Cricut Joy if I already have a Cricut machine?

If you already have a Cricut Maker or Cricut Air 2, the Cricut Joy opens additional creative possibilities with unique features and is the perfect companion for quick, mat-free projects and long cuts.

We LOVE how compact & portable Cricut Joy is. Cricut Joy is Cricut’s smallest smart cutting machine ever and weighs less than 4 lbs.! It fits in a cubby or looks great on a counter. Cricut Joy packs away easily and sets up instantly, making it super easy to move from room to room.

Not having to transport a mat—combined with the smaller material size—makes the whole system compact and portable. You can even take the Cricut Joy with you on vacation to make fun personalized items for your girls’ get-away weekend! No craft room required.

New Cricut Joy Exclusive Products 

With the Cricut Joy, mats are optional! Cricut Joy has a full suite of brand-new materials that do not require a mat, which means you have less to buy and store, fewer steps to create a project you love.

New Smart vinyl comes in extended sizes, so you can cut shapes up to 4 feet long or repeated cuts up to 20’ long, with no need to switch out multiple mats. Everyday crafting has never been easier!

Directions

  1. Create your art file in Cricut Design Space. The “Ew, David” file I created is available for download.
  2. Apply your Cricut Smart Vinyl to the Cricut Cutting Mat. Load the mat into the Cricut Joy.
  3. Follow the directions in the Cricut Design Space to cut the file.
  4. Remove negative Cricut vinyl pieces, leaving only the desired cut image on the liner (this process is known as weeding). Using the weeder (found in the Cricut Joy Tool Kit can make this process faster and less tedious). Personally, I love the Cricut BrightPad to make this process even easier. vinyl cut ew david
  5. Apply Cricut Smart Vinyl following directions on the packaging with Cricut Transfer Tape.
  6. Gently place the Cricut Transfer Tape (adhesive side down) over your cut design, starting in the center and moving out toward the edges. Use the Scraper found in the Cricut Joy Tool Set to burnish (rub or polish) the Cricut Transfer Tape onto the vinyl. Peel the vinyl away from the liner at a 45-degree angle. 
  7. To apply the vinyl decal to the mug, make sure your mug surface is clean and dry. Carefully place the Cricut Transfer Tape with vinyl decal onto the mug as you would like it to appear. Burnish the Cricut Transfer Tape onto the surface, starting in the center, moving out toward the edges. Use the Scraper tool to smooth.
  8. Peel the Cricut Transfer Tape away from the vinyl at a 45-degree angle. If the vinyl sticks to the Cricut Transfer Tape, simply burnish the Cricut Transfer Tape onto the vinyl with the Scraper and peel away again.
