I love the cricut joy xtra machine. It's super easy to learn and use. It's versatile enough to make stickers, cards, iron on for t-shirts and more. It's the perfect starter machine for some one want to craft there own products or personal use or for sale. The bigger cutting space makes it better suited then the small cricut joy. It cuts cleanly as long as you follow the guides on the included software.

The newest addition to my crafting collection and I love it! I’ve been using the Maker for years so I wasn’t sure I’d be able to downsize to a Joy. The Joy Xtra is the perfect in-between. I can still do bigger projects but the machine itself doesn’t take up nearly as much space on my desk. My only qualm with it is that it has limited blade capabilities. I only miss the engraving feature from the Maker!

I have used my cricut maker 3 for years and my kiddo has been asking for her own, so we picked her up a cricut joy xtra. The Michaels exclusive lavender colour is gorgeous and it comes with a selection of materials to use.
