5 Cricut Cardstock Types You Need to Try Today

[@Reneesfun]

Oh wow! Didn’t think to use the self adhesive card stock for cards. I use it ( with my joy) to cut cute shapes that I seal envelopes with. It makes the envelope look special. Thanks 😊

[@AngieHolden]

I have done that as well! It works great!

[@wandam.5586]

I have all the Cricut paper you mentioned, except for the Sticker paper. I think Cricut paper is great quality. I agree about the Kraft Board. I use it a lot and keep a supply of it on hand. I try to stock up when Cricut has a sale.

[@AngieHolden]

It is so great! And so few people talk about it!

[@ebvee123]

Good Morning Angie🙂 When ever I go to Michaels, I always walk past the smart sticker paper but know thanx to u I know what to do now.🙂🙂

[@AngieHolden]

It is a really great product especially for quick crafting!

[@AngieHolden]

Yay! Happy to help!

[@dianemacdonald9121]

Thanks Angie for the clarification of all the different cardstock available to use on the cricut and for mentioning which cricut can cut what type of cardstock. Very valuable info for sure! I had been wondering if the Explore Air 2 could cut kraftboard and you explained that as well, so my question was answered! Again, thanks for sharing.

[@AngieHolden]

Thanks for watching!

[@julieann5196]

I've never seen the foil cardstock or sticker cardstock. I'll have to get some to have on hand. Thanks for sharing Angie.

[@AngieHolden]

Give them a try!

[@clutterqueenie]

Thanks for this video, Angie! You've inspired me to pull out the paper types that you covered and that I have collecting dust in my stash. And I did not know about the sticker cardstock! I truly enjoy your videos.

Cricut newbie here! Your videos are very good and informative. I have been struggling to cut cardstock (have done all the basics like making sure my mat is clean etc and still having no luck) and want to give up and return my machine. You are giving me hope though, so thank you! The sticker adhesion machine looks so good! I didn’t know there was such thing. I’m struggling to get my glue stick to work between layers haha. I’ll have to get one 😊

[@AngieHolden]

Just want to make sure you have seen this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5KtdmOqaraNd5I

I love and use all those cricut products! Nice refresher on them. Those birthday cupcakes are adorable! IF you have this as an option, use the double scoring wheel on the heavier products; makes life easier!

It definitely does!

That is one of my favorite hacks!

Thanks Angie. I agree about all the uses. I have and used all 5 Cricut products you mentioned. But loved seeing all your projects.

Hopefully it inspired you!

Hi Angie - just a note that the poster Board is white core so you will see a white edge to the cut

[@amymanganaro4243]

[@joseykeep]

I just discovered the foil poster board and love it. I like the smart cardstock as well. I haven't used either very much though.

[@AngieHolden]

The foil is so great and shiny!!

[@joseykeep]

@AngieHolden yes. I used it to decorate my department at work for lab week. I can reuse for next year. It's great.

[@civilizeddiva]

I am looking forward to trying the smart paper cardstock instead of printable vinyl

[@sharon2922]

How informative, thank you. Can one use normal cardboard paper? Just for starters. (Looking for cheaper options at this stage)

[@AngieHolden]

Yes definitely!

[@wendyleebarrett5652]

Hi Angie, you definitely have taught this old dog new tricks! I saw the self-adhesive card stock on the Cricut site but never thought about how I could use it and also the Kraft board that I almost never think about… brilliant ideas! I know it’s not a Cricut product, but that adhesive in the blue gadget that you roll the paper through, could you possibly link the name of it? it looks amazing! Thank you for all of this as usual l learn something every time!

[@jaynemansfield140]

I’ve used the sticker card stock for labels. They would be permanent labels because it’s very hard to peel them off if you change your mind.

[@AngieHolden]

Hmmm. I didn't have much issue. Anything that was hard to get off I just used water to dissolve the label then goo gone.

[@NancyWirtz]

Nice to get an overview of what is available (Cricut Joy since March). What is the little machine you were feeding pieces thru? Does it apply adhesive?

[@elainepierron8140]

Would love to know what the little machines were too 😊

[@shirllundstrom4176]

It is a Xyron sticker maker! Small, cheap, portable, and manually operates.

[@brendamoring5429]

Hello Angie, I love watching your videos. I have an air 2. Just before Mother's Day, I was able to print and cut. Did they change something in the program. I did calibrate my machine first and did not have a problem or maybe I misunderstood what you were saying. Thanks for sharing. Have a blessed day.

[@AngieHolden]

Print then cut on the Explore Air 2 is for white paper only. Colored paper requires the improved machines.

[@brendamoring5429]

@@AngieHolden Thank you. It must have worked out ok for me since I used the very light purple cardstock. Again thank you for letting me know.

[@cherylh7559]

Would you be able to use the Cricut cardstock sticker paper for print and cut. Thank you.

[@AngieHolden]

I would not use their cardstock to print on only because it is textured.

[@debbiefontes5597]

Hi Angie what is that plastic blue thing you were passing parts of your projects through?

[@AngieHolden]

It is a Xyron sticker maker which adds glue!

[@LisaVornhagen]

Thank you! I am so used to using the card mat with my Joy to make cards I didn't know you could do that on the Maker without a mat. Is there a tutorial? I love the glitter cardstock and the foil posterboard! I am going to have to get some of the paper sticker cardstock! That opens a lot of possibilities and ideas for me! I am curious as to what that little blue machine was that you were using. I couldn't really tell what it was doing.

[@MrKeithcl]

Me too! I came to the comments to find out what that little tool was. I want one!

[@MrKeithcl]

Ok found out XYRON create a sticker Amazon has small 1 1/2” and 3” and 5” (that’s the one I just bought)
