Thank you soooo much for showing a shortcut! I've watched a handful of videos that seem to make it more complicated or extra steps. And thanks for the detailed explanations for this newbie!!
This is the 10th video I've watched and finally understood how to keep the card the size I wanted it, and the first video I've understood "the how to" make an edge card. Not even the Cricut "how to" videos helped. THANK YOU FOR MAKING IT SIMPLE - EASY! ♥ ALMEDIA.
OMG, you are amazing, you taught me so much in this video and not just the card!! Alignment, contour, how to do back to back without trying to match it up, you are the bomb!!! Thank you so much for all of this. and the card is AWESOME!!!
I am so happy I came across this video and I am thankful that you shared your knowledge. You explain this so clearly as I was looking for something different to make my Valentines cards. I want to thank you so much for your generosity. Happy and healthy New Year.
Hi Narelle, I have watched several videos and found yours to be the most easiest to follow. I came from Tamara's you tube channel that was suggested on my feed as I was searching for new card folds.
Thank you. As others have said this is a very easy but detailed tutorial. I know I will refer to it again. This group is so generous with their knowledge and I am grateful.
Thank you for that. I recently watched Tamara's tutorial and while it was a bit easier than the others I've seen, the technique is still imprecise and fiddly. I knew there was a way to do it this way and began to play with it but didn't have the patience to figure it out. LOL. Thank you for all the work that it took go through the trial and error of figuring it out for me!
Thank you, Narelle. Your tutorial is very easy to follow and you explain everything so well. You have taught me a different way to make the Side Edge cards which I am eager to try now. I think using the Slice tool, as you have done, will make it a bit easier to create the card base and layers.
Great tutorial, Narelle! I can't stop making Over the Edge cards, they are so fun! Thank you so much for sharing your expertise using Cricut Design Space. I'll be sharing your tutorial and also the link to your group in my group so everyone can learn and have fun too. Thank you again! You're the Best! Misty
Thank you Narelle. Your tutorial is Amazing. You take the time and explain everything so perfectly. Tomorrow I will watch this again and try and make my own. Thank you again.
You showed just what I wanted to learn--side edge cards WITH DOUBLE OFFSET! Now I need to know how to make side edge cards of the A2 size: 5.5 tall by 4.25 wide.
Thank you! I’ve been struggling with this concept as I am trying to create escort cards with the design edge on top. I can’t seem to get it to work but your video has inspired me to try a workaround with your tutorial! I just joined your Fb group!! Thank you again!
Thank you so much! You really explained things well and I can't wait try this technique! Additionally, thank you for the map in finding the files in the group! I struggled with that while I have been searching for files.
Thank you for a very clear video on this technique, that I will use going forward. I have looked at the other video you linked, unfortunately it is in German.
Fantastic tutorial as usual, thank you :) After all these years how did I not know about the members projects album? haha I've shared a few of my cards there now.
Thank you for the wonderful tutorial... I am following along now and I have my two offsets done. When I press on the offsets the contour button does not go bold so I can't do that.. I am not understanding why
The Contour option will only be available if there is more than one contour. If it’s just a solid shape you can skip that step. If you need more troubleshooting help feel free to tag me in a post at facebook.com/groups/cricutexploreandmore with a screenshot of your project. 🙂
I have watched the video from start to finish 3 times now, but how do you get the icecream to look the same when making the card please. do you have a tutorial on card making?
Hi Narelle, & thanks for this tutorial! I just have one question. When you make the double side edge card, & you make 2 squares to put inside of it, wouldn’t you have to make them thinner, in order to not stick out beyond the edge of the card? When I’ve done this, I just put a square over the one side of the card, unlock it, & size it by eye, so it won’t stick out. If you have another way to do it, I’d love to know! Thanks again. 🙂
I did forget that bit in the video in my rush to get it recorded. You do indeed need to make the inside pieces shaped the same as the card base. You can use the original shaped piece and use the offset button but make them insets by using -0.125. 😊
Joan Fricker 0 seconds ago Your tutorial was great. I do have a question though...when I close the card the bottom shows behind the cut out image. Is it supposed to? I only cut one side.
Using the offset behind the image at the end of each project, is that just a design choice or does it serve a function? In other words, can you just place the flowers or ice cream directly on the card or do you need that offset shadow piece? Thx.
This was a very good video, and a project I wish I could make, but......my "offset" feature does not work, and Cricut has not yet come up with a fix for me :(
Are you using a PC running Windows 64 bit? If so, have you tried downloading and installing this: aka.ms/vs/16/release/vc_redist.x64.exe It doesn't work for everyone, but has for many.
I’ve never used the Scan n Cut software as I don’t have that machine. If I can download it without owning a machine I’ll have a play and see what I can come up with.
I've had a play and while I've worked out the basic steps, I can't get consistent results. So it will take me longer than I thought to do a tutorial. I am working on one that shows the process in Sure Cuts a Lot and saving as a SVG. I believe that SVG's can be imported into CanvasWorkspace.
There are many different embossing machines available. Here are some options from scrapbook .com. shrsl.com/4kel0 # ad. Look for one that has at least a 6" wide opening so you can use larger embossing folders.
I am very grateful to Tamara for first bringing side edge cards to my attention but having tried both Tamara's method and Narelle's method of making these cards, I think the way Narelle makes them is so much easier. I recommend that you just follow the steps that Narelle walks you through and you will be successfully making side edge cards in no time. 👍
