Great video! On my Maker, instead of the scoring idea, I just leave it as “cut” but then just remove the blade. It goes through the motion of cutting but doesn’t actually cut because there’s no blade. 👍

[@caitlinheal3746]

Thanks for the tip - so helpful as the pen was scoring on the mat and leaving a mark :(!

[@weirdgirlgacha]

20 videos later and yours was the best information

[@Peenchy]

Great Video! A word of advice from someone who felt way overconfident with this project and didn't watch the full video. Don't put your marker in during the scoring phase of cutting lmao. accidentally drew on the mat lol!

[@annettearmstrong3051]

Wow one simple comment from you has stopped my 24hrs of hell because my first project wasn't working, yes I'm a noob. Placing the order of the items in the right hand task column means that it attaches correctly and prints correctly. Oh my goodness thank you. You can't imagine how many times I heard to resize, lock the size and select them all and attach arrrgghhh (I watched so many tutorials and none mentioned this), lets hope it all prints out nicely now lol

[@StarQuality28]

And here’s the answer to my question regarding writing 😂😂 wow I’m shocked. So glad I found your videos!

[@jaloneynorwood4306]

Oh my god 🤗🥰 I’m so happy to have came across your tutorial ❣️ I actually had to go back a few time for the comprehending. And with that being said I learn how to make my first sticker labels. I do have other great features I’m a newbie fully subscriber to Cricut and now YOU 🤗🥰💕 So grateful Thank you so much ❣️❣️❣️❣️

[@patriciadianeboily9103]

Your video was the best video I watched today so thanks for posting it !

[@karlasellers3290]

Really enjoy your videos and this one with addressing envelopes is brilliant!! You have a pleasing voice and explain everything very clearly. Thank you!

[@letilewter5394]

thanks for showing how to address an envelope with the Cricut. It was very helpful.

[@jackiedarnell4905]

Sent from makers gonna learn! Im going to fill out my valentines cards with the cricut pens!

[@shaniapratt8413]

totally tried it!!! worked great! it was my first time doing this on an envelope and was alot of help!!! thank you!!!

[@amycheldelin8848]

Thank you so much, I was unaware of the style feature. This has helped me so much.

[@sandraengstrand2784]

Great tutorial, I learned so much!! (newbie maker) 😁

[@LynDahlie]

Thank you so much for how detailed your videos! I love seeing you and Tanner connect and share your passion for Cricut with the world.

[@susanorona7896]

In the future I might be addressing envelopes for my niece’s wedding. This will be a big help to refer to when I do.

[@ptlboodeb1]

New subscriber. Great video on addressing envelopes with a Cricut. I never thought of that.

[@michelecleveland6457]

This is awesome. Never thought about addressing envelopes lol

[@karinavlog9703]

Omg I’m learning so much from you

[@donnaheyduk3139]

Thank you Karley!! Your tips were super helpful and my card and envelope came out beautifully!

[@CassieAStone]

So many fantastic tips I’ve needed for a while! Thank you!

[@AutismJourney_BeKind]

Awesome video! Love this idea. I do think I will struggle with lining it up exactly on my mat, I am not good at that. 😃 so the hack with the “scoring” shows you if the envelope is in the correct place? If it is not, would you cancel and place the envelope again? Thank you so much for always having amazing videos! I truly appreciate all the time u spend filming for us. ❤️✉️💕

[@theresaforsyth1650]

[@traceybartlam5940]

Great video, thanks

[@chelseacarrier3170]

Im using the Explore air 2 and when I resize the square it only lets me select one measurement. If I choose 5.5 for width it makes the height the same. 😕 and when I go to the mat preview screen it has my scored square and my address information outside of the square to the right

[@erikamelendez5366]

I’ve gone thru three videos and no one explains how to maneuver. I’m just starting out so I’m confused. Thank you so much.

[@MileyonDisney]

I'm still waiting for delivery of my first Cricut, but couldn't you just delete the envelope, instead of marking it as Score? I would think it would just write the letters and stop. I do not know. I'm obviously still learning. Thanks for a great video!

[@KarleyHall]

The score line is to help line it up. For my brain, it’s easier to use the rectangle to align it :) but it’s definitely not necessary!

[@robbie6625]

​@@KarleyHall If you want to use the rectangle, you could also only attach the two addresses but leave the rectangle on its own layer. Then when you get to the layout screen, simply align the rectangle on the mat where you'd like it to be then drag the addresses inside the outline. Once you get it aligned how you'd like, you can click the 3 dots on the top left and simply hide the outline. This way your Cricut won't need to do the extra step of "scoring", but you can still use the rectangle for alignment.

[@KarleyHall]

Good idea! I like the motion of the scoring to ensure the envelope is placed correctly- but if you don’t- that’ll definitely work!!

[@nicoleolivas1444]

U are amazing 😻

[@normbenjamin]

really rather than score just turn off the rectangle layer and all you will see then is the addresses you have entered.

[@shopcallykids683]

Hi, why does my pen draw the square shape onto my paper even when I set Score? Thanks!

[@suzethc7990]

Are you leaving your pen inserted while the machine scores? That is one reason I can think of. 😁

[@dillamy07]

Has cricut fixed this in DS yet so u don't have to use a hack?

[@user-sg8lw9vy3q]

Is that a specific pen?

[@dawnzobel1582]

This may have been asked, but I literally just got my machine so I am sorry for possible repeating. Do you have to use Cricut pens or can you use other pens?

[@KarleyHall]

You can use other pens! There are 3rd party adapters available or you can wrap a rubber band around pens to make them fit in the machine. I typically stick with the Cricut pens because I am lazy haha!

[@suzettetitus2337]

I did not see where to change pen color? What am I missing?

[@lydiaalbright122]

Can you take the same steps that you just did on a t shirt

[@marandamendibles5282]

Hello! Do you prefer the cricut fine point or cricut gel pens? I’m trying to decide with the purchase. Thanks!

[@KarleyHall]

I like both! But the gel pens are my fave!!

[@marandamendibles5282]

Thank you!

Design space will not allow you to just select "draw" anymore nor does it have an option writing. This vid is outdated.
