Thanks for the tip on reusing the mats, it can get very expensive replacing them. They seem to wear out pretty fast. I just got mine for Christmas and am on #3! I though about doing that because I use that glue with my Slice but didn’t know if I could take off the old glue from the mats. Thanks A Bunch!!!

I really did enjoy your new video on DVD, it is very helpful, especially since the writing on the cricut keys is so small that I can’t see it. It has been very difficult to learn. I do feel like I know the basics now, thanks to you. Keep up the good work.

I have another tool that I picked up not knowing how valuable it would become, it is the Quickutz, Quicstik. It has a supply of sticky tack covered by a cap, that keeps it clean and fresh, along with a pointed end that can be used for positioning. So I can pick up the smallest of embellishments and move them around with just this one tool. the sticky tack is not an adhesive but I can place my items right on a dot of glue with it. I have seen them at Hobby Lobby and Jo Ann’s. I got 3 in a pack from Qvc a few years ago and they never run out.

Hi Megan. Some of my favorite tools are just about everything in the cricut tool kit, the spatula, baby wipes,a speedball (to make sure my paper is stuck to the mat well), the cricut paper cutter and the Fiskar paper cutter.

Thank you for the tip on using the baby wipes to clean the cricut and blades. I hadn’t thought of that.

BTW. Thank you so much for making the DVD. I learned so much.

Hi everyone. I have to say that so far the spatcula and baby wipes are my must haves when I use my cricut. the baby wipes helps my cricut items as well as my fingers when they are full of Zig glue. lol.

I love the tip aboput the Zig glue on the bone folder. I have never thought of that. Also can you show a pic of the Fiskars Finger Tip Tweezers? I don’t have an AC moore around me, do you know where else they can be found?

unfortunately they can ship the stick spray and stick away outside of the usa. Not even into Canada!

Great tips! I’m wondering if there is a Canadian store that sells the sprays because it’s not shipped internationally? Or does anyone know of an alternative? I used Goo Gone to take off the adhesive, and it worked well, but have yet to find the sticky spray.
