Cricut Faux Leather Bookmarks : How To Cut Faux Leather On A Cricut!

[@JD-72191]

I decided to make these and they came out great! Thank you for the idea! I did make double-sided bookmarks like you did but I did not join them together in design space as my faux leather sheet was not long enough. But it seemed easier to me to cut out 2 separate pieces anyway. I used regular white glue and inserted a piece of thicker cardstock between the 2 pieces of faux leather to make it slightly more sturdy. After the glue dried I machine stitched close to the edge all the way around. This last step made all the difference! It looks professional!

“You’re not going to get anything done with a newborn…” I’ve been blessed to see your more recent videos, and you’ve done a lot! Hope the Lord blesses you and your growing family as much as these videos bless us beginning crafters. Got mine as a supplement to woodworking, and got hooked on the great designs posted by you, Jennifer and Doletha.

They are so Beautiful great Idea. I made some for my grandson School mates. I don’t have the new Cricut I have the very First Personal Cricut And I was given the Expression Cricut by a friend an I was told that by Design Space that I can’t use my expression Cricut on the design Space. But I do make a lot of other things and I have a lot of Cartridges am 72 yrs old an this is my favorite thing to do. ❤️❤️❤️

Very cute! I would have done the iron on with the bookmark folded, (to get a more crisp fold) & would have ironed the whole front, in case the heat affected the texture. I would also put the owner’s name on the back, in case it gets misplaced. Thanks for the great ideas! ❤️😊

[@Mindshiftmastery2525]

I enjoy a physical books as well. ❤❤

[@justifiedjewel]

I like the most sturdy one ( bookmark) black and green. Eat, read.

A vous je dis un million de merci pour votre tuto car j'avais des problèmes pour couper le simili cuir grâce à vous maintenant je sais faire

[@barblamoureux6826]

These look awesome!! 😍

[@richardlynngarst3728]

I love my Kindle when I travel - much easier and less bulky but these are perfect for bookworms! Our women’s church group meet for lunch, collecting books and other things such as socks and blankets/warm throws to donate to our local senior center. Making a bookmark is a perfect a small gift to add to each book. Thank you!!! - Lynn

[@nicholeschlueter3283]

Love these!

[@sheilalewis5227]

Oh my goss - I absolutely love your channel. Please, don’t ever stop crafting. I get all my inspiration from you

[@YarnSociety]

So grateful for you! This newbie appreciates your step-by-step instructions, my bookmarks came out perfect!🥰

[@cyndismith4939]

I know I'm late to the game but wanted to suggest using a small crochet hook to push through the hole and pull out whatever you use for a tassel. I would rather have a smaller hole that holds onto the material. Thank you for the great tutorial and hope you're now able to read with both hands.

New subscriber because of this video. Love your explanation and watching you make these. Thanks! I want to make some!

[@ttmarie1111]

Congratulations on your new bundle of baby boy joy Bethany! Your little girls are going to spoil & protect their baby brother! Beautiful! Love the monogrammed floral faux leather book mark! Definitely doubled up makes it perfect! Your so right, I always fall asleep, then have to reread portions of the page! Love the glue gun as well, it’s on my wish list! Thank you for another great craft tutorial & ideas!

[@Bethadilly]

Thanks so much, Tina!

[@LisaVornhagen]

Those are so cute! I really love them! I didn't know that there was iron on foil. I'll definitely have to get some!

[@tewmuch7342]

[@DIYAlex]

This is such a great idea with faux leather! I absolutely love it! The double sided design is genius!

[@Bethadilly]

Thank you, Alex! Yes, making them double sided really gave them a fine finish!

[@sophiemacdougall1326]

Great bookmarks, thanks for the video

[@fatimarazon8407]

Love foul iron on too! I used it to add our branding symbol on a sweatshirt for my dad.

[@latina438p]

Cute upon cute upon cute! NO regrets on following this channel very instructional for a newbi like me, much blessings

[@Bethadilly]

I’m so glad, thank you!

[@regine-annogletree1373]

These bookmarks are so cute and I also love reading physical books. I have some faux leather already and plan to make a few of these for myself and as gifts. Your videos are so detailed and you explain everything clearly; thank you for sharing!

[@Bethadilly]

Thanks so much! I really appreciate that!!

[@ChinkyRiceCake]

I love bookmarks! I was curious on what you’d do with faux leather. I want to make for my coworkers since we’re always reading during or breaks!

[@suzettesmith2075]

So cute!! Great idea!

[@pattishelton3169]

Love these

[@annatrigeros-rocha7701]

Such sweet little bookmarks Beth! 🔖 I have the Cricut Joy so I can cut the faux leather by hand and use your ideas and designs! Great Christmas gifts! Hope you and your family are enjoying your precious son he's beautiful 💙

[@jessicaott7593]

Anna, from the research that I've done, I think you can cut faux leather with the joy.

[@alexandragarciabaudrit5835]

Love this!! Will be doing it soon!! Congrats on your new baby!!🥰❤️

[@MLLatUtube]

These are a great idea! Thank you for sharing

[@thescrapperchick]

Super cute bookmarks! Thanks for this great tutorial. Will be making these for sure!

[@saminaxalixmakeup3142]

Love these! Tried for the first time following your measurements and for some reason my first one came out minuscule 🤣🤣 😂😂😂

[@brittnaayyy]

This is absolutely gorgeous

[@brittnaayyy]

We're did you purchase the template

[@Bethadilly]

Thanks! Be sure to reference the description box below the video!

[@spuracchio]

Great tutorial and congratulations 🎉!

[@darlenekrisak2962]

Beautiful… 💕

[@jenniprado8705]

This is a great tutorial! I’m trying this out for the first time and I’ve followed the steps to duplicate/rotate/weld the bookmark but my Cricut still cuts out two separate pieces. Any suggestion on what I need to adjust? Thanks!

[@queenofhearts57]

This is exactly what I was looking for. But I’m confused between the types of vinyl. What’s the difference between heat transfer vinyl , iron on vinyl and iron on foil? Great tutorial!

[@epidemicfire07]

These bookmarks are cute! Also unrelated, what color is that on your nails? They are so cute!

[@cathyrandolph7135]

I was going to crochet bookmarks for our ladies' retreat, but now I'm doing this instead!

[@sarahseid5674]

I have a question: I tried making the bookmark and after I ironed the everyday iron on, it left, like a boarder of the liner on the faux leather...there isn't any residue but its as if the heat embossed the lining to the faux leather. This has happened twice. I followed your instructions, including the heating and movement directions of the mini iron. On the first bookmark I did use parchment paper and on the second one, I used a teflon sheet but the end result was that embossment of the lining from the everyday iron on. Thanks for your help.

[@dezirrewalker6731]

Love these! I'm going to have to make some for myself and my momma! I enjoy reading on my bad days and am stuck in bed. Do you think putting HTV on the back side of the faux leather would work?

[@moobaba]

I’m new to owning a circuit and I’m wondering how often do you replace blades? Where can I buy replacements ?

[@Bethadilly]

It purely depends on how often you use your machine and what you’re cutting, but I’ve found my blades last a long while. You can purchase replacements on Cricut’s website or wherever cricut supplies are sold. Hope this helps!

[@sharoncarson7634]

I ordered the same faux leather, using the same mat, settings, star wheels are to the right, etc. and my machine still will not cut all the way through the material. I've had it repeat the cut 3 times and it still will not cut all the way through. Any ideas?

[@KOCABustards]

Which iron-on foil do you use?

[@tan.hughes]

Fab can these be made on my cricut joy x

[@Toytatu]

Yes, using faux leather sheets, 💕

[@Bnes0531]

My faux leather moved even on a new strong grip mat 😢

[@Bethadilly]

You may need to tape it down along the edges if your mat is losing stickiness.

[@HarleyGrl23]

I want to add a monogram to my daughter & granddaughter's on the back of the double sided bookmark either with the vinyl used on the front or using the deboss feature. I'm assuming I would add it to the top one but put it upside down?
