How to Engrave Wood with the Cricut Maker

I have had people asking me for some time about engraving wood with the Cricut Maker. I finally had a chance to sit down and perfect a method for you. And I must say that I am loving the results. I used the engraving tip along with the knife blade to make some wood earrings and they turned out really great. Grab your supplies and craft along with me cause you are going to want to try this technique.
