If you use a Provo Craft Cricut personal die cutting machine for scrapbooking, you know how fun it is to make scrapbook items. You can use your Cricut cutting machine skills to make money. With enough know-how you can turn it into your own home-based business.

Here are some ways you can make money with your Provo Craft Cricut personal cutting scrapbooking machine.

Personalized greeting cards. While a store-bought card can be nice, there's nothing like receiving a handmade card from someone. You can make money from this idea by using your Cricut cutter to make cute, fun handmade greeting cards for all occasions. Leave the inside blank to allow the purchaser to write his or her own special message in the card.

Custom invitations. There are plenty of people that would be willing to spend money on custom creative invitations. Some people aren't creative or wouldn't have the time to make one themselves. This is where you come in. You can use your Cricut cutting machine to design invitations based on your client's request. Or you can create a variety of generic, yet creative, invitations and let the customers order what they like. Offer a variety of packages and price ranges to suite all of your customers.

Party favors. Throwing a party becomes more creative when you have handmade favors and place cards. You can make little paper trinkets with your Provo Craft Cricut personal cutting scrapbooking machine. Consider birthday party, baby shower and bridal shower favors.

Want to know where you can sell your scrapbook items? There are a number of places where you can sell your Cricut creations.

You can start your own arts and crafts blog showcasing pictures of merchandise you've made with the Cricut cutter machine. You can start own business and purchase a domain name to match. Link it to your arts and crafts blog and you're in business. Share your work with other scrapbook enthusiasts to get a feel for what's popular.

Show a variety of projects on your site to increase the odds of pleasing potential customers. Also advertise that you can make custom items on request. You can add a PayPal link to your site to allow people to purchase your custom Cricut items.

Sell your items on Etsy. The etsy online marketplace attracts lots of creative people and those that like to buy creative items. Setting up a shop on Etsy is simple and fun. It gives you a Web presence and a sleek way to present your Cricut scrapbook merchandise. Etsy will take a cut of your sales, but you'll reach a broader audience who may feel more comfortable purchasing with you on this reputable site.

    This is a great idea. However, if you check the Cricut website, the copyrights associated to the Cricut machine allow you to create crafts and sell them LOCALLY ONLY such as at flea markets or craft fairs. The rights granted do not allow for the selling of crafts made with the Cricut machine online or in an actual store. We are looking into something similar and that is what we found. So you may want to do some more investigation.
