a very ✨stressful✨ fall shop update vlog

[@lesparza1981]

Your reaction to the amount of people on your site and ordering is so sweet and wholesome. This only confirms even more how much it brings me so much joy to support you in the little ways I can

[@laqueenie_art]

Please keep the detail in the washi tape!!! I'm not keen on the "simple" ones. hahaha but also I know it's about preference and whatever works for your shop. I love watching your videos and seeing the BTS work. I'm excited for the freebies!!! I hope you're feeling better!

[@KagomeMorino]

i love all the details as well. If they are going to be in sets of 3 maybe one can be more plain one can be detailed and the other can be somewhere in between 😁 love them so much though!

[@krissym1430]

16:06 Have you changed the blade on your cricut? I know when the cuts on my stickers get fuzzy/torn it's usually because my blade is dull and done for (or it has something caught on the tip of it). When I go to cut on my cricuts I always make sure to change the blades to fresh ones if I am doing bigger batches.

[@amarien82]

maybe for your launch times you can do something like 10am PST/1pm EST. It may help people understand the time differences. Everything looks super cute by the way

[@Dancinglemon]

33:15 nice to know that the ‘customers won’t read anything even if it’s a giant sign right in front of their faces’ applies to online shops too 😅

[@balletbookworm]

What a pain in the butt to have to fly down to LA to get your washi shipment - but salute to you for making that timeline work!!!

[@misstashxox]

Please look after yourself, friend! You work so hard for your customers and we love you - and we will still love you if you need a day or so to recover

[@bikangarts]

OMG. Love your content. I play your videos in the background while doing online shop stuff. I like how transparent your contents are. Also, I would like to suggest getting a Siser Cutting machine, especially if you're mainly cutting stickers. They cut super fast and boy are they super accurate. The software is so easy to learn. Have mine for a year now and just have to calibrate once. Also, calibration takes less than 5 min. They're so efficient esp during time crunch.

[@pamappleby1400]

That washi tape has been giving you grief from the get go-I have got to get a couple, or six cause they are adorable! I love the details you put into everything-it really is nice.

[@lesparza1981]

Love your content and your art. Thank you for saying what you did about it not being the dollar amount that someone spends on your site and business. I truly wish I could buy everything and anything from you but not my reality so here I am making an order of a sticker sheet and a dye cut sticker. You are amazing and so real and I truly appreciate and love watching your content

[@rosabellebelieve7762]

16:06 Used to work with cricuts, from experience the blade might be dull, set at a wrong pressure or have something stuck at the base of it. If it's dull u could change it or resharpen it with an aluminum ball. It could be set to an excessive pressure w the blade sticking out way too far, that ratio would need to be put thru trial and error tho. But it is totally fixable!

[@beingemma]

Such an inspo! I love the cat sticker sheet that was a freebie. Idk if you post other timezones when saying 10am PST, some people don't know or don't take the time to search what that means to them. So most commonly people will mention PST and EST times.

[@PotchouDoodle]

So much adventures for this shop update! You are amazing for keeping pushing through it. Seeing you cutting all this stickers with your cricuts, reminded me how happy I am to have Silhouettes so I can cut my sticker sheets without mat 🤩 thanks to my sheet feeders my machines can cut 20 A4 sheet by themselves without my intervention (most if the time). Maybe you can cut without mat with your Cricut too 🤔

[@mrshelium4137]

Omg! Your making bookmarks and knitting stickers! Girl... I got to get ready for your next drop. I just got my order and I can't get over the cute washi tape! I got only one set but I will need to get your match one and the new ones when their unveiled. Love your work but hopefully your taking time for yourself too. ❤

[@Angelofnine]

I could finally purchase something from your shop!! I love your art, it's super cute ❤

[@TracyLynnCruz]

the freebies are so cute, really hoping its something I can purchase later on! also loved the washi tape. I looked back at my order time after this video and I placed it at 10:01. LOL but wanted to ask if it has to be shipped in a box? I feel those sized boxes could be reserved for huge orders. I buy a lot of washi tape and most of the time, theyre bundled with sticker sheets that come with a journaling card to keep its shape/integrity and it's just inside a bubble mailer! hasn't been an issue with bending the sticker sheets at all!

[@fussyfissy]

So incredibly deserved!! Happy for your success with the launch! Even happier with the cute sprout stickers I received!

[@ChitoToda]

I enjoyed this drop, the sticker sheets are so good !!! I would have loved some washi but I will wait for you to work out the international shipping, hope you find something that work ! Thank you for all your hard word 😄

I know I'm super late, but these washi are absolutely adorable! It's been a crazy month so I missed this shop update when it went live, but I've just gone and ordered everything that wasn't out of stock because it's all so freakin' adorable! I absolutely love the details on the washi 😍 and I can't wait to get my order!

[@khershravani]

Firstly, way to go on crushing the prints and cuts!! Just curious if you have considered getting the larger cricut or a more industrial sized die cutting machine and getting the prints printed on a larger role of paper for those bigger machines in comparison to the letter sized sheets. What are your thoughts on the pros and cons of using 4 cricuts vs one large cricut or industrial cutter? :)

[@mochibujo]

That's such a huge amount of orders coming in right away!! I haven't ever had that big of a launch, haha I wish! I'd be so proud! Also I can't believe you flew to LA to get your washi tapes, that's wild!!

[@cherie.23]

Hoping to grab some of the washis when you start shipping internationally (I'm in Canada)!

[@kikiinthegarden]

You are so so talented! I wish I could draw like this

[@by_alice_entropie]

Oh, I feel the same with the freebies. When I see people are coming back over and over again this is a wonderful feeling. Seeing them wanting more and they appreciate my work is so rewarding and I want to add even more for these people. But what is with the new costumers? I never know exaclty where to draw the line with adding something on top to give back love. I really have to figure this out. And I love that you create items you would want to buy. If we as artist don't like our products how can we properly advertise for them, right?! I always want to write you a whole story to send you strengthand good wishes and alike. Because your attitude somehow gets to me (in a positive way). Don't know what I am acutally saying here xD And when it comes to Marvel I agree. The movies are too much action and too "colourful" in the sense of effects and alike. I miss the flopsy jokes from Spider-Man and that special something you got in the first few movies. It got lost a lot after Stan died (by the way I was born on the same day as him!). Personally I ignore the movies and stick to the comic books. All magic to you

[@beebopper1280]

Shopify lets you schedule your products so you don’t have to be online to set your items from draft to active. Love that about Shopify

for the 10am pst problem, you can just include a est subsection just in case ppl don't realize pst is different.

[@susannacervantes921]

Get a “ scan and cut” machine. It cuts right to the edge and or leaves a white area around image. Your choice. It cuts really nice.

[@JelArts]

Omg the shopify shipping profiles is my biggest issue with them too!!!

[@TheJtj18]

Congrats on the update! Wanted to see the book marks :( Guess I gotta make a trip to your shop! 😊

[@lostinwonderart]

I use Big Cartel. So, how they do shipping is I put a shipping fee for just ordering the item single, and a fee for when ordered with something else. Big Cartel charges the most expensive single shipping fee first, and then the secondary fee for additional items. So if they order something where alone it's $5, but with other items it's 25cents, and a second item where it's $2 alone and 10cents with others. It charges $5+10 cents, so $5.10 Also Big cartel does all sales tax automatically for you (like etsy does).

[@JulianneDoodles]

@@lostinwonderart ooOoO thanks for letting me know! I’ll look into it

[@brwniz39]

Woohoo!! Congratulations

[@lyfe.l]

Ok circuit I didn’t know it was an update issue. I had a project keep messing up the cut and it’s not dont that before. Your flow numbness how you do it with the consistent camera angles. Omg my tunnel vision

[@therummagingferret]

U can sharpen the blade by cutting tin foil with it.nremove the blade from the mechine and by hand cut some tinfoil strips with it. May last a while, depending on how much u do. At least it will get u through till a new blade arrives.

[@flytronica]

For timings perhaps list other timezones next to your timezone?

[@ionnoXD]

What do you use to edit your videos? The little animated "stickers" you use is always so cute!

[@sweethellstudio]

Have you considered getting a siser cutter? They’re as close to a graphtec as you can get apparently. 👀

[@JulianneDoodles]

@@sweethellstudio oOo i haven’t but ill look into it. Im so sick of this!!! 😂😂

[@thefoxesden342]

Question how do you keep the print quality on ur stickers high? After I draw when I print through the circut it lowers my quality so much

[@JulianneDoodles]

@@thefoxesden342 hmm it could be due to your print settings or dpi. When I print through Cricut I always do the “open printer dialogue” button to make my own settings through my printer

[@liamdepam]

Cricut software updates are the worst. I sold mine and went for a silhoutte, because those don't automatically update. I haven't used it yet, but I've heard you don't have to calibrate them constantly either ^^

[@nathaliehuerta4717]

I was on a flight to a vacation and had my sister order for me lol

[@simplyshandara]

I wonder if you may need to change the blade on the Cricut?

[@chrisbelyasmin6150]

I would say 10am pst, 1pm est just in case ppl dont know time zones ?

[@JulianneDoodles]

Good idea! But the issue is all over the world unfortunately so I’d have to include every time zone 😂😂

[@kimberlyschmit9959]

I would list EST as the one and only time zone. Most countries learn to convert to EST when doing business.

The Cricut might need a new blade. Cute designs!!

[@ebonyknight3948]

Congratulations on the chaotic update, and well done for just buckling down and pushing through the problems. I think maybe your dead cricut might be blunt? time for a new cutting blade, maybe?

[@Nuancesofnancy]

Let me just say, selling stickers is one thing but watching these vlogs really allows us to see the person behind the brand and see how much raw emotions and stress goes into a shop update. I was one of the individuals that ordered within the first five mins and got the bonus! I was so happy, since it was a first. I appreciate how you consider giving those of us who cannot order a lot a chance. I use your sticker sheets for my to do lists, and monthly spreads. I still have your cozy reading one from last year! It’s funny how you mentioned you drove an hour for those u containers, bcuz this same week I drove into West LA, an hour from me in traffic to pick up a piece of furniture. And in the car ride, I was telling myself whyyyy am I doing this, cuz LA traffic is horrific and parking is absolutely chaotic and stressful. Especially when you are by yourself picking up bulkier items, you have second thoughts like how worth it is ittt. 😅

[@maisartcafe]

I'm in CT time, but my corporate job is in PST and that means I'm 2 hours before PST so I am guilty of sending something at 9am because that's when I send things, but I forget its 7am your time LOL but then there's EST and their an extra hour before! So this is just a guess but you may be getting messages from the East coast :) BUT if you're putting PST, that's their fault xD

[@jimoran5265]

Have to ask what iPad are you using in this? I have trouble seeing on the smaller one I have now and the screen size of your looks perfect!

[@avo4974]

what printer do you use? I have to hand feed mine one sheet at a time ahaha

[@BreakfastMunkii]

Apologies if you have answered this in a previous video. But the cost of printing was too crazy for me to even print in colour. Is it just a large part of your expenses or do you have a particularly economical printer? Thanks in advance! PS just bought three stickers sheets wooo!

[@xo_lvcky]

Im pretty sure she has answered this in one of her videos i think she has a megatank printer which is essentially an ink printer from canon with a HUGE ink cartridge

Hey Julianne, you mentioned that your sticker sheet manufacturer had something going on and you had to print the sticker sheets yourself, was just curious if you're outsourcing now? I just watched your "how to make sticker sheets" video and thought you printed them yourself? :)

[@clairechcohen]

omg not me getting emotional that so many people ordered :')

[@bilapower2606]

for the time issue you are talking about around 33:57 it might be usful to look in to utc time, i work a lot with people from difrent time zone's and that is for al of us the easyest to take. most people know what time they live in. but it might be a little more work and a little difucult at the start do to you needing the know how much in front or behind that specifit time you are. and like calculated that into things. i have seen a lot of difrent people who sell around the world do this aswel with great sucses. but ofc it doesnt work for everyone. i might helps who know ^-^

how do you make the sticker settings to cut trough at the lines and the sticker only kisscut ? i hope you know what i mean my english isnt perfekt :(

it just sounds like the bad cricut needs a new blade? idk i own a silhouette but what you described sounds like a dull blade 😅 sorry you had such a chaotic update. glad you were still able to make it work. you're so cool! i woulda been a baby n just pushed it back or something

[@GabStoreStudio]

Am I the only one who struggles with printing everything first and THEN cutting it, when I have multiples to do. Am I missing something, or are all those stacks the same and that's why it's easy to cut after? lol

[@Un_Elysian]

Personally I find it easier to print & laminate everything in one go THEN go through and cut otherwise I’m running from the printer to the counter to laminate, loading a mat and back to the printer like I’m doing some gym circuit 😂😂 but if I’m not laminating I prefer to print & cut simultaneously 😅 I think when you have more than 1 cricut machine though it’s probably easier to print everything in advance, since once you load in all your mats, you prepare your next mats then they’re ready to swap over already? Maybe?

[@GabStoreStudio]

@@Un_Elysian that makes sense, but I guess I meant more so when your cuts are different, how do you go back and see what the Cricut is supposed to cut? Or do you put ALL your projects on the same canvas first? I’m so confused. lol

[@alekswakeham8294]

@@GabStoreStudio I pre-print and then go back and cut too. I arrange the stickers in design space and attach them, then print them - leaving the designs attached. And then when I want to cut them, I go back and 'make' the same attached design, skip the print step and go straight to cut. So I manually arrange and attach the designs, I don't let Design Space do it for me - that way when you go back to print, the individual stickers are in the same position as they were when I printed them. I hope that makes sense! And I hope I understood your question correctly - so sorry if that's not what you were asking!
