Hey hey friends! My goal is to share the best craft tools and techniques so you can spend more time creating and less time frustrated. I specialize in Cricut machines, card making and sublimation, and I'm starting to dabble in sewing tutorials with my mom's expertise. I love questions and comments and I respond to all of them myself. I look forward to helping you with your next craft project and I'm always open to video ideas. Let's get started!
No matter what I have tried I can’t seem to make print and cut work. I can get the sensor to read the lines but I can’t get it to cut properly. I have wasted so much time and materials. I feel like buying this machine was the worst decision I’ve ever made.
My print then cut works fine. When I attach a pen to a cut it does not line up correctly. Sometimes the cut, cuts off part of the pen writing. Can you help with this?
Thanks for your efforts in putting together this Kittl Video. Kittl isn't bad, but it is a rehash of CANVA. Canva has also bought Affinity so I think ADOBE will start to loose market share soon. Good Work
So what happens if you get the black lines all the way around but you do a print then cut and still have more white space on one side? I have had this happen. I have noticed sometimes the black line that outlines the large square might not be perfectly in the middle.
So the tattoo does have a clear border around it, or behind it, but you can make that smaller if you make the "edge" or "outline" smaller. Thanks so much for crafting with me!
Hey Nicole! When I use the right temp and pressure usually no. I also tear my paper around the edges so if there is any kind of a mark it's not a straight edge. Hope that helps and happy crafting!
If you want to read it from the outside, then you would mirror image it. The packaging will help you too if you get confused before cutting. Thanks so much for crafting with me!
Why is my Bluetooth not locating my Cricut Joy ? Every time I go to make I get buffering thing I paired it renamed it several times 😢😢😢 tablet is right next to Joy
Oh that is such a bummer Cheryl! I'm so not techy myself. I would personally call Cricut. I've found their help desk to be great and they've likely had to help lots of people with these types of things. Hope you get it worked out!!
I'm trying to make a Thank You card from Design Space. My card stock is 4 1/2 x 5 1/2.. Using the Card Mat. Design is not showing centered on the card. How do I move everything down a bit and to the right?
Carol, hmmm... did you manually move your card over/down? I've had a few designs do that to me and I had to make sure that the edge was either very snug to the mat (if it needed to go to the right) or a bit looser (if needed to go to the left). It stinks because you waste cardstock having to adjust. Maybe use a blank sheet of regular paper to test it and get it centered? I've only had that happen to me twice and it was the design in design space. I hope you figure it out and can get back to crafting!
Hey Cheryl! The apps change so often and I don't use the iPad much since I'm making tutorials. I hope you figure it out. All the same functions should be there, just in different spots. It might be worth a Google! 😀 Thanks so much for crafting with me!
Hey Candice! Here's what I use: ⭐ Canon Printer MG7720 - amzn.to/3rlYuib I've had it for years and it's still printing strong! Thanks so much for crafting with me. :)
Hey Tonda! All of the links to the Creative Fabrica sets I used are in the description. If you're referring to the design template, here it is: www.creativefabrica.com/product/20oz-skinny-tumbler-kit-bundle/ref/1394776/ Thanks so much for crafting with me! 🩷
Hey Martina! If you mean for the temps, I used the Cricut temp app. You can also find it online by searching Cricut Temperature Guide. Thanks for crafting with me!
I'm not completely sure of the exact size without going back into the template (this was several years ago), but yes, I would say these are about 1.75x2 Thanks so much for crafting with me! 🩷
Hey Desiree! If these tricks didn't help, I would personally contact Cricut support. In my experience they are super helpful. I hope you figure it out and can get back to crafting!
Thank you so much for crafting with me! As for using an iron, I've never tried it. The key with puff is pressure and a consistent heat. If I tried it, I would make a test project, with no steam and as much pressure as I could apply. If you try it, let me know! 🩷
@@KimByers I tried it with an iron. I wasn’t able to get the right temperature. It was either too hot or not hot enough. In the later , the heat didn’t distribute evenly. I got some puff with some sections not sticking to the fabric.
I really love how those mugs turned out! I can't even imagine paying those prices for any of those items knowing that I can make them myself so much cheaper! I have the Joy and the Maker and I would definitely say they are very much worth the expense. I have been able to make cards, paper crafts and holiday decorations with them and have had so much fun doing it. I am so glad I bought them! And thanks for that tip about the hole in the bottom of the tube!
Thanks so much for crafting with me Lisa! I agree, not only can you make lovely things, but have a ton of fun doing it. 🩷 Happy Memorial Day weekend! 🇺🇸
Hi Kim! I love the way you think! “Perfection is overrated” is so true!! And I agree, my Cricut is absolutely worth it!! I’m a #1 type of crafter, and the more I use my Cricut the more I love it. Im always on the lookout for potential “canvases” (mugs, plates, signs) from the discount bins or garage sales, estate sales etc. I think I love the finished items even more when they’ve been upcycled or made on the “cheap”! Thanks for yet another fun and inspirational video!
I completely agree! Finding "cheap" or "cheaper" blanks make me giddy. :) Hobby Lobby has tons and tons of blanks and I wait for the cyclical sales. Thanks so much for crafting with me! 🩷
I'm definitely a #1 and I love it! These are so cute. My birthday is July 3 so I love everything Americana for that reason, too. Thanks for inspiring me to make some things this year. ❤
Oh, thank you! You are too kind and I so appreciate the sweet words. So glad this video helped! 🩷Have you seen my new card making series? We're on Episode 6: ru-vid.com/group/PLYJAbsWmbUWZPbhDp-RMRDaRVfZScaYct
Great tutorial, thank you! I have been looking and looking for a video to show me how to change the landscape of the image. If I want to do it horizontally, is there a way to do that? It shows horizontal in Design Space, but when you go to create it, it goes back to vertical. I can’t figure it out!
I love mine, I agree with you thought, I wish the drawer would pull out further. I make size 4-5XL t-shirt for my ASD son and family members, I find that it is not suitable for that :(
Love your invitation card, super cute. I usually double my score lines i.e. one on top of the other so it does a double score and find that it really helps. Thanks Kim and have a beautiful day xx
Hey there! When you go through Design Space it will turn it on the mat for you and depending on your shirt size, I usually go with 9" wide on a medium shirt. Thanks so much for crafting with me!
