- Did you know that the new Cricut Explore 3 can cut up to two times faster than the previous models and it features matless cutting with Smart Materials?
When I first heard about this new machine, I could not wait to get my hands on them! Whether you just purchased your machine or you are still deciding if this machine is right for you, this video is for you!
After testing out the Explore 3, I’m ready to share everything you need to know about the machine as well as a few of my tips and tricks with you. In this post, I’ll teach you all about Smart Materials, Explore 3 updates, and the Cricut Roll Holder.
A big thanks to JOANN for sponsoring this video and sending me the new Cricut Explore 3 to test out and review!

This video was EXACTLY what I needed! For someone who is new to the Cricut family all together this was very informative! Thank you
Can you make a video how to do stickers on the cricut explore 3 ?
I am new to Cricut and have just purchased my Explore 3. This video is the best I have seen. You explained everything so clearly and was very easy for me to understand. It was the perfect video for me.
You have been the biggest help when it comes to using my Cricut explore 3. I was so lost but you broke it down so nicely
Thank you so much for this video. I got a cricuit not too long ago. I've heard about the machine for a while. This was a nice video to let me know about the different materials and features of the machine I have. Great video!
you did an amazing job in your comparison of the two machines. I'm 68 with a hearing deficit and I could hear you very clear. Thank you very much.
This is so helpful! Just got this for Christmas and was so overwhelmed. Thank you for explaining everything!

Hi, thanks for your video, I just got the explorer 3 for my birthday. I can't wait to use it. All the videos are great but overwhelming. I want to make a rolled flower, I put in a 8.5x11 paper and my cricut went crazy. I guess I have to use a mat to get all the way to the paper grip, is that right? thank you
Received my first ever Cricut for Christmas yesterday. All set up, printed my test sample, good to go. I have 1 roll of Blue Smart Vinyl (13 in x 3 ft). What's next?? Where can I go to try some simple, easy, beginner projects? I'm very excited, but a little overwhelmed.

Hi I would be using it with cardstock would I have to purchase the cricut matt or Can I just insert the cardstock just by itself for a speedy cut. Thank you
Such a great review thank you so much. I have the joy. And I have use the smart vinyl. I absolutely cannot get that stuff to release. It is so discouraging. Any ideas on what I might be doing wrong.
Glad I could help! I actually inquired about this recently with Cricut. They told me that they reformulated their smart vinyl so it's now easier to weed from the thicker backing.
Can I cut a stencil from a 10 mil sheet of Mylar? I tried but it’s not cutting through, am I using the wrong setting or is there a deeper blade? Thanks for your info!
Can you recommend a good printer for cardstock and cricut print and cut projects? I am considering an ink tank version, but wanted your recommendation.
You mentioned how you could use colored printable vinyl. Where can I find that? As in 8.5 x 11 sheets. Thanks
Does the explore 3 do engraving?
Can you still use the mat with the explore 3?
Do you think that they are going to phase out the Explore Air 2?
Can you cut fabric with the explorer 3? More on point I have snake skin fabric so it's the bumpy kind will this cricket cut fabric like that?
What do you recommend if we want to do pictures and how to?
Can I use ordinary card stock without a cutting mat?
Something I've been wondering about in considering buying a Cricut Explore 3, but can't take the time to watch several videos in the chance it might be covered is this:
Can I adapt my own designs or am I restricted to using the ready-made design templates?
How do you make a 5' banner getting the font the correct size if that makes sense.
Does it cut stencils.?and can you design your own stencils or are they pre-set. Thanks
Can I make my own stencils @ 11x 14 and how bigger can I make them. Thanks please answer back

Hello I just bought a new cricut explore 3. And I purchased cricut premium vinyl resplendissant paper yesterday at my local Walmart store. I'm confused how exactly this vinyl paper works?
Many thanks for the amazing video. Please does the Explore 3 cut fabric? Have you got a video tutorial on how this works please?
The Cricut Explore machines can only cut fabric if it is bonded. That means you'll need to apply a layer of fusible stabilizer to the back of the fabric in order to cut it out.
@@SweetRedPoppy Many thanks
I just got my explorer 3. I made my first cut. But when I load the smart material or on a mat, it keeps stopping on measuring materials, I don’t know what I’m doing wrong
Does this model explore 3 cut flannel material?

Hi dear, im receiving my new explore 3, but its my first ever, i don't have any cricut mat, i will be purchasing vinyl papers from my local store, just the standard ones that others use, i was wondering if i will get difficulties to use it? Or i have to only use the ones i purchase from cricut company. Also if i don't have the cricut mat, can i use any other mat to do it?
Did I understand this correctly, you can use regular non smart vinyl with a matt in the explorer 3?

Yes!!
Hi. I am new to Cricut. The project that I want to do. Hope I can do is a quote/saying. Having many different fonts and sizes. Is this possible.
Why is it so difficult to figure out how to make a window decal with smart vinyl at 33”w x 19”h ?
Question I just bought this today but I didn’t buy the smart vinyl I bought the reg vinyl. I watched videos and everyone said I didn’t need a Matt- do I need a Matt with the regular vinyls that are not the “smart vinyl”
You need a Matt with regular vinyl. Smart vinyl can be cut without the Matt.
Can you do sublimation with explorer 3 😊
Sublimation, requires different machines, sublimation paper and a sublimation printer and sublimation ink. Depending on what you are trying to sublimate you might need a tumbler press, oven etc.
what is the plastic for stencils called please
How can you make labels with 3 colors in your logo?
Hi, I clicked the link for SMART MATERIALS and some Mcafee website synced to my calendar reminding me to renew and there’s a URL as well.. Is this some kind of virus? I was expecting a link for SMART MATERIALS, not some random link that’ll go straight to my calendar
smart IRON ON BEST 1 I LIKE OF COURSE ! ;0)
Can you engrave with this machine?
I have a question, I had bought 12x12 iron on paper thinking it would be able to fit on the Explore 3. I know she said that you can use smaller paper than the 13x12 that the machine takes, but how? Do I need a mat? If I do, will 12x12 mat be good because that is all that is in stores but I don't want to waste money. I have already tried changing the settings in design space and that did not work. Please help!
You will need a mat for any material smaller than the smart vynil.
mine didn't come with the extra materials only one black vinyl piece
Circuit explore 3 product overview
Do you sell a learners book?
That roll holder looks like it wastes a bunch of vinyl after each cut. Is there a way to move your project to a mat/table and then cut it off? Or am I missing something?
I think she said that you cut it right below where your cutting is gone so you don’t waste material.
What is sticker cardstock
not much difference with it but the speed. not all vinyl are big roles some on etsy and other websites you can buy vinyl per-cut to any size.
I had a Cricut explore 2. I want to buy the Explore 3 but wonder if I need to buy a new mat. The Explore 2 uses a 12"x12 or 12 x 24 mat. The Explore 3 cuts 13" wide. Is there a new mat size for it?
no the old mats work just the same with the explore 3 and maker 3
Can we still use a mat with the explore 3.
yes
I have been reluctant to buy a machine because it seems like you can only use it if you have internet access. Is that the case? I am an artist and I create my own designs. I don't want to invest in something if I have to subscribe to a service to use it. Can you let me know? Thank you.
hello, I have a candle business and want to make my own boxes and lids, also want to print and design my own labels. So I am using thin wood and cardbord. Wich Cricut would you recommend? I dont do fabric stings so I am a bit stuck on the explorer 3 and maker 3... Thank you for your help. Jessica from Belgium
what is the difference between Smart Vinyl Permanent and Smart Vinyl Removable?
Removable is good for windows and walls decals. Permanent has a strong adhesive and makes it harder to remove better for objects it will stay on and leaves a sticky mess when removed
I do have a question. Hopefully you'll answer it. Can you use NON smart roll of vinyl without using the mat?
Without a mat u can only use the smart material any other u must use mat
Anyone have trouble with cutting full names or any letters?
