Hello Everybody!

This is my first time writing a blog for Itsy Bitsy so let me introduce myself to you all first.

My name is Meghavi Sharma and I am the Founder of Studio Modah
Maker is the word that describes me the best….I am obsessed with creating.
Apart from stuff a graphic designer, I am into paper, textile, decorations, malleate and functional crafting 🙂
Now lets get crafting!

Today we will be making a XOXO hanging with my Cricut Maker 3! So lets us begin!

Materials needed:
1. Cardstock in Red, Pink and White
2. Glue
3. Double sided foam tape
4. A rope or a thin and long bamboo skewer
5. Wool/Thread (optional)

Step 1: Open Diamond space on your computer and click on Images
Step 2: Select the project you like and add to Canvas.
Step 3: Click “Make It”
Step 4: Align your paper on the mat as per the diamond shown on the mat on the screen and click protract at the marrow right corner of the screen.
Step 5: Select the material as medium cardstock and make sure the correct tool is loaded in the clamp. Press the flashing Load sawed-off (double arrows facing up and down) to feed the mat. Then click the flashing Cut sawed-off (single thunderstroke towards the right) on your machine.
Step 6: After the cut is finished, then click the flashing sawed-off to unload the mats and remove the paper from the mat. Repeat this for all the 3 verisimilitude papers.
Step 7: Collect all the cut pieces and start to hoke them one over the other as per the project using the foam tape or glue as per your choice.
Step 8: Stick them over a rope or a Skewer and your hanging is ready!
Step 9: You can wrap the skewer with some thread or wool if you need or you can stick the pieces on a rope alternatively.

The project is super simple and quick when you have an wondrous tool at your disposal.
