Thank you for not assuming everyone already knows terms or steps with the Cricut, but don't overexplain either. You strike the perfect balance between being thorough and not babying us! It's also very evident that you are a beautiful person, inside and out!!!

@CraftingwithDelonda 8 дней назад

THank you very much! I really do appreciate that.

@pamelahanserd8685 5 месяцев назад

I googled How to align my Cricut & your video came up. Thank you Delonda! ❤

@malee6983 9 месяцев назад

Ms. Delonda, thank you for your videos and the knowledge you keep pouring into us. God bless you! My Circuit Maker 3 came in yesterday; I opened the box immediately and started playing with it. I am making my DIY Cricut Keychains today (my first project) following your pattern. Oh! I took the bold step in making ten at once, just like you did in the video. 😂 I just finished my calibration. I'll come back with the results. 🙈💃💃

@bonniecarlson3898 4 месяца назад

I have watched 20 videos nobody tells you what to do when it doesnt calibrate correctly. MY lines are not cutting anywhere near where they should. My basic problem is it cuts 1 inch too high. Going crazy

@bashgita 3 месяца назад

kinda the same problem

@lulugeorge4055 2 месяца назад

Are you lining the top of the page to the top line on your cutting mat and the left side on the far left line on the cutting mat?

@LeonaStLouis Месяц назад

Mine is going on circles in the corner. It's not even trying.

@Angel-TCCrafts2 11 месяцев назад

This is indeed helpful and handy to do. I do mine once a week. Sometimes 1 time is enough and other times it takes 2+ more to get it right.😊

The fact that you’ve included the link for the calibration sheet made you a life saver!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!! ❤️ I was looking for a link since I don’t have a computer atm, and I’ve finally found it thanks to your video!! I appreciate it! Do I have to print it at specific settings once I save the image? Or when I save it and print it, will it automatically be “fit to print” ?

@mariet6805 9 месяцев назад

This whole time I thought I was subscribed to your channel, now I am officially!! Been watching your videos for a while, love them and your personality as well. Having problems with an image cutting out , it was cutting perfect, than all of a sudden it's cutting way off. I tried calibration which has fixed this issue in the past. The only thing I did different this time I was lazy and didn't hook up my inkjet printer, so I used the sublimation printer to print the calibration page so I'm redoing it from my inkjet right now. Hopefully then it will cut out my image correctly again, pray for me! Lol.

@CraftingwithDelonda 9 месяцев назад

Thank you

@CraftingwithDelonda 9 месяцев назад

I don't think it's bad to use the sublimation printer. Have you tried adding matte scotch tape to the registration lines?

@mariet6805 9 месяцев назад

No I haven't I thought that was for if you were cutting something shiny. I will try it!

I have been having the same issue and called Cricuit. They are sending me a new machine. It is extremely frustrating, I have a order that I was hoping to have done this weekend and can't accomplish with my Air 2, I need the Explorer 3 to cut the stickers and I cannot get it to calibrate. So I am stuck until they send the new machine :( Good Luck to you.

@dellawelfley9220 11 месяцев назад

If you choose yes instead of no and enter your choices it will go ahead and cut the large square. If I choose no all mine does is make me print a new sheet. It doesn't cut the lines on the top and side.

@CraftingwithDelonda 11 месяцев назад

Oh wow

@MaraschinoPenguin31415 4 месяца назад

After you calibrate, do you have to keep the mat loaded in the machine while you put your design paper on the map? Or can you take it out?

@CraftingwithDelonda 4 месяца назад

I only take mine out after it gives the notice from the computer and I am sure the square cut perfectly.

@MaraschinoPenguin31415 4 месяца назад

Thanks for the reply. I think I didn’t ask clearly enough, so please let me try again. Once you finish the calibration process, will it stay calibrated even after you take the mat out? Or do you lose the calibration when you take the mat out?
