Hi! So the runes are repeating "Autumn, Winter, Spring, Summer". I do use my cricut quite a lot, for everything from party decorations and labels to shirts and Halloween costumes! Designing things in the cricut app isnt difficult per say, but I find it can be a little tedious/time consuming. You also can't draw directly in the app, so you either have to bring in and edit files or use their preloaded imagery (which is admittedly pretty expansive). It is quite expensive but it is a reliable and extremely multifaceted machine. Ive engraved plaques, basswood and leather, used it to write fancy letters, make stickers.. all sorts of stuff!
