Okay, so obviously using the method above with kraft board is quick, easy and can be done with the Explore or Maker. If you want to discover all the materials Cricut can cut for you read my post here! I’ll be using kraft board for one example with my Explore machine and chipboard with my Maker machine for my puzzles. Plus I will show you how to make your own puzzle, whether you have an Explore machine or the Cricut Maker machine. Today I am going to give you a free Cricut puzzle template in both rectangle and heart shapes.

I also heard the frustrations of others who owned the Explore machine and wished they could make puzzles, but since the heavy chipboard doesn’t work with Explore, because the knife blade isn’t compatible, Explore users felt stuck. When I started off making my puzzle with Cricut, I tried chipboard first with my Maker machine and became very frustrated that no matter what I did, my image would end up torn, and my puzzle not pretty enough for keeping in the end. I also wondered can I make a puzzle with my Explore Air 2 as easily with my Maker machine?īut my mission here is to always test and share my results even if they are a total fail! I also thought it would be fun to design and share a free Cricut puzzle template for you to enjoy which you can grab below. I have wanted to make a puzzle with my Cricut for a while now but honestly was worried about dealing with torn edges.
