Episode 38 - How to Cut Laminated Cardstock on a Cricut // Crafting Tutorial // Cricut Tutorial // As a school librarian, I need to create awesome letters with my Cricut for my bulletin boards. This year I decided to try something new. I laminated my cardstock FIRST and then cut the letters on my Cricut. Join me as I test a few settings and find the perfect Cricut Design Space setting for laminated cardstock. I actually end up creating my own custom Cricut setting and show you that process as well. Products used are below. Thanks for stopping by my channel.

@MegaBignob Месяц назад

Thank you for this setting i have added it to my cricut I use laminated card stock and then sublimate my designs onto my boxes

That's a great idea! Thanks for watching. :)

I added the custom setting while watching this video! I help my husband decorate his classroom every year. I bought my first Cricut in March just recently started using it for all types of classroom decor. This video is a huge help for the student nameplates I really want to create! Thank you!!! ❤

@FlipandFlutterCreations 2 года назад

Yay!!! So glad it helped! :) It definitely made doing my bulletin boards easier. :) Thanks for watching.

Genius! Precutting and storing laminated letters is going to be a game changer when I start teaching in January. I’m horrible at decorating, so this is going to help me out so much. Thanks for the tutorial!

Laminating the paper or cardstock before cutting the letters is brilliant! Much better than trimming the excess laminate from the letters. 🤦‍♀️ You have so many helpful hints in this video: prepping 2 or 3 mats so you are utilizing the time one is being cut to weed or prep, not removing the mat if need to recut same product (instead select flashing cricut button twice), changing the pressure (and saving in a custom setting) to reduce the cutting time,...

@FlipandFlutterCreations 3 года назад

Thank you so much! I am so happy these tips were helpful for you. :) Laminating the cardstock first is definitely a game changer!

I laminate 2 sheets back to back then cut the laminating on the edges, so u get 2 cardstockes with one side of laminate. i cut on the paper side, works great! Make sure you flip the design if you want the laminate on the front of the letters. Otherwise it will cut the letters showing paper side facing. but still have the strength of laminate.

@julieprince77 2 года назад

Also there is a plastic packaging setting on there, and it cuts twice around, for anyone needing that setting.

@FlipandFlutterCreations 2 года назад

Thank you! That's a great idea. :)

@kaitlinannette 2 года назад

Great video! I’ve been using the Cricut Explore Air 2 for a few years now and had no idea you could create your own custom materials!! Thank you so much for the walkthrough :) Do you happen to know the weight of the cardstock you used (e.g. 24lb, 65lb)?

@FlipandFlutterCreations 2 года назад

I believe 65lb but not 100% as I keep mine all in a plastic cart and have unwrapped it. :) Glad it was helpful!! :)

@brynnbergen4804 2 года назад

First year teacher here👋 I am SO glad I watched this before cutting all my bulletin boards and decor! How did these hold up long-term? Did the laminate peel off/curl at the edges as the year progressed?

@FlipandFlutterCreations 2 года назад

Thanks for watching! I had no issues all year, but I also left my bulletin boards up and alone. I took them down at the end of the year and most held up well. I saved them for use again in the future. :)

@nancyeaguiar Год назад

I do this too, but I run the cutouts again through the laminator to reseal the edges. I make bookmarks.

@kharrill1 11 месяцев назад

I keep getting an error - machine cannot read sensor marks

@FlipandFlutterCreations 10 месяцев назад

Sensor marks are usually for print then cut. This video did not use print then cut? Did you print letters, then laminate, then cut? I just laminated the cardstock and then cut my letters so no registration marks were needed. If that is not it, then maybe you need more light on your machine? Sometimes if it is dark it cannot pick up the paper is ready...

@ifeomaokonkwo9046 2 года назад

Thank you for this video. What if I already have what I need to cut on the laminated paper. Can I upload the same picture and cut it with cricut?

@FlipandFlutterCreations 2 года назад

You can upload your design and cut it on the cardstock. :)

@jammiknox1339 9 месяцев назад

I'm looking to make a busy book for kids... does the laminate pull away from the paper on the sides over time?

@jacquelinelettman9772 Год назад

I know this is an old video but how did you get it cut without the registration line.

@FlipandFlutterCreations Год назад

This is just cutting, not print then cut. :)

@DeneeLynne933 2 года назад

i understand that this is for the cricut air. does this changing the setting also work on a cricut maker?

@FlipandFlutterCreations Год назад

I would assume works very similarly. I haven't tried on my maker yet though.

@adavillanueva8692 2 года назад

Hi! Enjoyed watching your video. One question though, what blade did you use to cut this project? TIA!

@FlipandFlutterCreations 2 года назад

Thanks for watching! It is just the standard fine point blade that came with the machine. Actually, I have yet to ever change it. I just poke it with a ball of foil to clean it and it keeps on cutting. :)

@sireenahasan5608 Год назад

Hello, I am new to all of this, Can I please know what kind of Cricut do you have? Which one should I buy since all my cutting will be laminated paper.. would really appreciate your help. Thanks

@FlipandFlutterCreations Год назад

I used an explore air. I think if you are just cutting paper an explore air is good.

@sharneylawren4322 2 года назад

Did you have to do an offset on the letters?? Wouldnt they come unsealed?

@FlipandFlutterCreations 2 года назад

I did not. I just cut them. I had one or two come a little loose on an edge, but I was using the letters for a bunch of library bulletin boards and it has worked well. I plan to keep them up for a while. Maybe if I was handling them often and moving them a lot, I might have more issues? But for what I needed, this worked really well. :)

@neospezia 2 года назад

did you use cricut explore or maker? what is the settings?

@FlipandFlutterCreations 2 года назад

I used my explore. I have to go back and watch the video as I don't remember off the top of my head. I made a custom setting which I saved so I don't have to do it again. I walk you through that in the video partway through.

@michaelodarra6637 2 года назад

Hi. Could you describe paper size and laminate sheet size in GSM please. Thank you so much

@FlipandFlutterCreations 2 года назад

I used various cardstocks that I no longer have packaging for, sorry. Most were from packs from Michaels or Hobby Lobby. All letter size. Same for laminate. 8.5x11. 3mil.

@casandrasantos6693 2 года назад

I started cutting out my laminated cardstock but for some reason it’s bubbling up and unlamented my letters. It seems to be more with the black paper is this normal? Or am I doing it wrong? 😅 any tips are appreciated!

@FlipandFlutterCreations 2 года назад

I didn't have that happen. But I will say the black did have a little lifting. None of my other colors did. I just put the lifted side at the back.

@madebycc3387 2 года назад

Hi what size font did you use my letters are way tooooo small

@FlipandFlutterCreations Год назад

I always measure my space the letters will go (so 4 feet maybe,,,) then I type the letters and then size the box to the 4 feet or whatever it needs to be. Sometimes I adjust if I see that just by making things a little smaller I can fit more on a page.

@bluejoel14 2 года назад

I have followed all instructions and saved laminated card stock but it won’t appear on all materials ??thanks in advance

@FlipandFlutterCreations 2 года назад

Did you search in the all materials for it? I set mine as a favorite to make it easy to find without having to go to the all materials tab. If that doesn't work, maybe close out the app and open it back up to see if it is there. If not, try again and see if that works.

@bluejoel14 2 года назад

@@FlipandFlutterCreations thanks so much it came up eventually I’ve been trying for ages to cut laminate can’t wait to try xx

@djlarris3 2 года назад

I'm having the same problem. When I go to Material Settings it shows, but when I actually go to Browse All Materials it doesn't show up.

@tias8911 8 месяцев назад

So I’m clear… with the custom laminate setting it still took 3 pass to achieve the clean purple and red cut? TIA

@lrn777 2 года назад

what laminating sheet did you use? thermal? self laminating?

@FlipandFlutterCreations 2 года назад

It is thermal. Not self laminating. I just use the Walmart brand most of the time. Whatever I find on sale or is the least expensive at the store I visit. :)
