Scrapbooking/Cricut Advice Needed, Please

[ChickenettiLuvr]

Welp, I went and done it. I've been wondering x 12 months, thinking more x 6 months, earnestly considering x 3 months, bit the bullet this week and bought one.

What I want from a Cricut:

To add captions, titles, and small images to scrapbook pages.

What I bought:  Cricut Explore Air 2 wild rose bundle.

What I'm wondering: Should I have bought Cricut Joy instead?

What I'm feeling: Sheer terror. Buyer's remorse. Over my head by 10 miles. Utterly too stupid to figure this out without benefit of in-person classes. Kicking myself for wasting a lot of money. 

Good people from the crafting world: I would love to hear from you!!!!

I think you made a wise decision,  The Cricut Joy is very tiny and you can do so much more with your Explore Air 2.  I bought a Maker 2 years ago and was not even remotely tempted when the Joy because available.  I felt the same way about the infusible ink cartridges.  I would, however, recommend a heat press if you ever decide to use iron on vinyl.
