The <strong>Cricut Explore<\/strong> will kick off 2014 with all the bells and whistles you could possibly ask for in a die-cutting machine. With several new features, Cricut is distinguishing itself as an industry leader. This machine bridges the gap between new school and old school with its <strong>patented Cut Smart technology and the ability to create designs both with software and the Cricut cartridges<\/strong> you have come to know and love.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-674 size-medium aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/craftdirect-blog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/cricut-explore-2-300x94.jpg\" alt=\"new cricut explore machine\" width=\"300\" height=\"94\" srcset=\"https:\/\/craftdirect-blog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/cricut-explore-2-300x94.jpg 300w, https:\/\/craftdirect-blog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/cricut-explore-2.jpg 559w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\">Cricut Design Space vs Cartridges<\/h2>\n<p>One of the beauties of Cricut is that its cartridges have allowed the less technologically inclined to operate their machines with ease. This was very appealing to many users, but many of their customers have yearned for something more customizable. The new Cricut Explore machine <strong>offers the best of both worlds<\/strong>. With the software application you can use image files to create the design you desire or you can rely on the tried and true old fashioned way, and put your <strong>Cricut cartridges<\/strong> to use.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-675 size-medium alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/craftdirect-blog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/dial-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"cricute explore smart set dial\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/craftdirect-blog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/dial-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/craftdirect-blog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/dial.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><strong>Cut Smart and Other Features<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Not only does this feature allow for quieter operation, but it can simultaneously utilize the marker as it cuts with one simple pass of the blade.
