Join me live! Kickoff party and prizes!


Happy Friday Reader!

I am just popping in with hopes you can join me live tomorrow at 12:30 pm ET for a fun Valentine Craft-Along as well as our kickoff party (including fun prizes) for the Cricut Craftfest happening next week!

The Craftfest is starting on Monday, February 5th - with over 45+ never-before-seen workshops that will teach you how to master your Cricut and craft with confidence!

We’ve got paper crafts, felt projects, vinyl, iron-on, infusible ink, wood, and a dozen more craft concepts just waiting to be made by YOU!

Are you ready?!

We have over 50,000 crafters registered! WOW!

Live Craft-Along And Kickoff Party

Set a reminder because tomorrow, I am going ​live at 12:30 p.m. ET​!

During this Live, I am mixing it up a bit and making things more interactive with a step-by-step craft in addition to all our other info for beginners and prizes that are always so much fun during these lives!

Here is what to expect tomorrow:

  • Cricut Design Space basics, featuring how to upload designs so you are confident to start crafting when the event begins.
  • I'll answer any questions you have about the event or Cricut in general during our live stream.
  • Make a Valentine’s Day friendship bracelet gift with me using our Cricut and the Print Then Cut process. I’ll even be giving you my free template for this project (but it will only be available for a limited time, so be sure to join us!)
  • You will have a chance to win several prizes during the live, including a Cricut material bundle, digital templates, gift cards, and more!

Speaking of giveaways...

Right now, in honor of the Cricut Craftfest, speakers, sponsors, and I have teamed up to bring you a giveaway extravaganza..

34+ giveaways are open for entry right now!

So don't walk; run over to the ​giveaway page​ and pick out your favorites because I guarantee you will find at least one (or ten) items you want!

I've highlighted a few items below, but there are SO many more!

  1. DreamBox 2
  2. 12x12 Cardstock shop gift card
  3. Cricut Maker 3
  4. Cricut Joy Xtra
  5. Craft Memberships
  6. Ebooks
  7. Gift cards
  8. Craft kits
  9. And 25+ more! ​See them ALL here!​

Here are a few frequently asked questions about the giveaways I want to cover below. Please read. Thank you!

HOW DO I ENTER?

Head over to our ​giveaway page​ and follow the instructions for any item you wish to enter. Most of our contributors will have you join their email list so they can reach you if you win!

And that's it! Giveaways are open until February 9th at 5 p.m. ET!

IS THIS FOR U.S. RESIDENTS ONLY?

There are more than 17+ giveaways open to both US and International folks. I have marked them individually so you know which ones are best to enter, depending on your location.

Items that are not open internationally are only due to the high cost and logistics it would take to get the shipment to international folks, beyond the investment our speakers have already made in giving away the prizes.

But as I said, there are 17+ giveaways that ARE international - so there are still plenty of generous prizes and gifts to receive!

Please note: AKC and our speakers will never ask for sensitive info to collect prizes. Please be vigilant against imposters!

Will you be able to join me live tomorrow? Reply and let me know!

All my best,

Abbi

Hi there, Reader! One of the things I am most passionate about is genuine connection. Listen, I am as human as you are. I make mistakes, and I learn from failures like anyone else. One of the things I have learned through tons of trial and error was how to make my own custom SVG craft files. Here's the personal bit... I have ZERO education in design. Zip. Zilch. Nada. In fact, I completely sucked at it when I started, and honestly still have rare moments where I look at the things I make and...

I know, I know, you may already know..but just in case, Reader, here is what's happening.. 🥳 The Cricut Craftfest is back, and registration is now OPEN FOR FREE! Can you believe it? It feels like just yesterday when I first hosted the Cricut Craftfest, and now we're celebrating our fifth epic crafting online event in the last 3 years! 🎉 Whoo, hold up there! 🤐 You may see several crafty folks mentioning this event right now. I value and respect my spot in your inbox, so if you are not...

It's the week before Christmas, Reader. Are your days merry and bright? Or busy and bustling? Or maybe they look different and are filled with quietness and solitude. No matter what your holiday season is like, I just want to take a moment to say I see you. You are a valued person here in my community, and we care. I've packed a warm virtual hug in this message just for you! 💗 Yes, Christmas is full of cheer for most, but I know for some, the holidays bring more loneliness and pain than joy...
