Learn how to make Bookmarks with Cardstock, and the Print then Cut feature on your Cricut. After printing your free designs with an inkjet printer, I will show you how to laminate your bookmarks with a thermal laminating machine and cut them with a Cricut Explore Air 2.
These bookmarks can be made with any of the Cricut machines with the Print then cut feature. Unfortunately, the Cricut Joy would not be compatible with this Cricut tutorial.

Glad I found your video. Laminating before cutting makes sense especially when you have a shaped bookmark. Also sending through laminator 3 times is a good tip as well.

Wow, that was really clever! Another take on using the Cricut for cutting, loved it. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the great tutorial. Didn’t realize you could print multiple pages for print & cut before cutting. Need to give a try (printer needs ink first)

They are beautiful. Thanks for the tutorial. Why did you run them through the laminator 3 times?

@mainroaddigitalcreations Год назад

@@maryfoor5701 Thank you, Mary! I ran them through 3 times based on information from another creator. I'm not sure how many times 1 sheet of cardstock would need, but I wanted to be sure they sealed completely since I would be cutting them with my Cricut. I hope that helps. Thank you for watching and for your comment. 😊

@Main Road Digital Creations thanks for the quick response. I sometimes have issues laminating cardstock, and I'll try running it through 3 times. 🤩

Your tutorial is concise and clear, easy to follow. I really appreciate that! I am wondering how to create double sided bookmarks. By any chance, have you created a tutorial for that? Thank you very much for creating this wonderful tutorial!

@mainroaddigitalcreations 2 месяца назад

Thank you so much for your comment and kindness!😊 I don't have a tutorial for double sided bookmarks, sorry.

@debsbodyjewelryandmore День назад

Love this tutorial!!! What blade did you use? I'm going through the fine point blades very quickly.

@mainroaddigitalcreations День назад

@debsbodyjewelryandmore hi! Thanks for your comment and kindness! I use the blade that came with my machine - the fine point blade. 😊

@bhamavemuru4076 7 месяцев назад

Thank you for the tutorial! Don’t the plastic layers peel off if they are not sealed on the sides?

@mainroaddigitalcreations 7 месяцев назад

Thank you for your comment. Honestly, I have not had any issues. You may be right, though! Mine and my daughters are still going strong!

@meaganlapensee699 Год назад

I have 65lb cardstock, would you suggest passing through 3 times as well, or would 2 passes through the lamination process be enough?

@mainroaddigitalcreations 11 месяцев назад

I have always done 3 passes. You can try to do 2. I'm honestly not sure if it would make a difference. ☺

@NickelCris2010 11 месяцев назад

Great tutorial! I just cant geg my cricut to read the lines after i laminate no matter how I try.

@mainroaddigitalcreations 11 месяцев назад

Thank you! I appreciate your comment. 😊 I have never had an issue, but I know others that have. You can try adding a black line with a permanent marker so your machine can read the lines a little better.

@adic7805 10 месяцев назад

Do you know how can I do double side print? On Cricut

@mainroaddigitalcreations 9 месяцев назад

I would imagine the best way is to make your 2nd image the exact same size and print that one as well. Then lay them together (maybe glue them) and then laminate them? I have not tried it. Sorry.

@devonjasper5284 9 месяцев назад

So the Eason printer prints out the card stock..?

@mainroaddigitalcreations 9 месяцев назад

Yes, I print the designs on cardstock with my printer.

@lindacooke8845 7 месяцев назад

What program did you use to line up your bookmarks? I have designed bookmarks Affinity Photo would this program work? OR do I need the Cricut design program?

@mainroaddigitalcreations 7 месяцев назад

I design in Adobe Illustrator.

@lindacooke8845 7 месяцев назад

Thank you for your reply. I guess I need to know how to set up the file so that it has the correct registration marks and what file format do I save it to. I heard you say SVG. Do you have a video on how you have do this process? Thank you again for your help with this.❤

@mainroaddigitalcreations 7 месяцев назад

I apologize, I really do not understand what you are asking. The SVG is included with the free download on my website.@@lindacooke8845

@lt6502 7 месяцев назад

Sorry, When I create a file on in Affinity Photo which is like Adobe Photoshop, I save it as a jpeg, or png or pdf etc. In order for the Cricut to be able to cut it do I need to save it as an SVG or will it take JPEG? I am interested in purchasing a Cricut but don’t know much about how to operate it. If was hoping you had a video on how to set up the file on your computer and how to save it so that the cricut recognize the registration marks. Thanks. L.

@mainroaddigitalcreations 7 месяцев назад

@lt6502 Cricut will recognize those files. You would be able to use them as printable images- so you would use them like I show in the tutorial. As a print then cut design. 😊 The SVG files are layered cut files - those are cuttable with products like vinyl and cardstock.

@arnessad16 Год назад

Why did you put it through the laminator more than once?

@mainroaddigitalcreations Год назад

I ran them through 3 times based on information from another creator. I'm not sure how many times 1 sheet of cardstock would need, but I wanted to be sure they sealed completely since I would be cutting them with my Cricut. I hope that helps.

@Lissbirds 10 месяцев назад

Doesn't the lamination peel off since there is no clear border around it? I've never seen lamination cut flush to the design before.

@mainroaddigitalcreations 9 месяцев назад

I haven't had any problems

@ladyer1972 3 месяца назад

I’m having this problem too. It peels off if I cut too close.

@debsbodyjewelryandmore День назад

@@ladyer1972 I've had problems with a few of mine peeling up after cutting, I just run the individual bookmarks through the hot laminator again (not using another pouch).

My machine won’t read the registration marks after I laminate my sheet

@mainroaddigitalcreations 10 месяцев назад

I'm sorry you're having problems. I have heard that others use masking tape to cover the registration marks. Then use a black marker to mark the lines so your Cricut can read them.
