Omg thank you for this video! this is so helpful. the only thing I keep running into a problem is that the text doesnt print in fill. help please....

[@CorinneBlackstone]

hmmm thats a weird one. I would double check the font itself and the style and then be sure to check if its set to writing style and not print. You can print them in the writing style so it comes out hollow.

When I try to do a print and cut on my maker I don't have the same icons as you, I cant find where you got the layer attributes options, I have created what I want to print with an outline but it keeps cutting all my words I have printed, do you know how I can stop it cutting my printed image? Thank you

Design space has updated since this video is quite old. Print the cut is now towards the top of the screen where is says fill. You need to make sure you have you image and words flattened to a shape

[@raquelbourne8145]

Very new to Crafting and this is my first attempt at invitations. Your instructions were good and I was able to figure out what the "register marks" are. The problem I am having is that my cardstock is silver and the Cricut is not finding the register marks. The error I am getting says to be sure I am using white paper but I would like to use the silver. Can you tell me what I would need to adjust? I would appreciate any help.

[@CorinneBlackstone]

your only real option is to print it on white paper and then cut out the registration marks from the white paper and tape it to the silver. this does not always work however. Sadly the Explore is only made to print and cut on the white paper.

[@cashabenton9254]

I am trying to make invitations and the black box is not around my design also when I go to print it, it comes out yellow and cant seem to figure it out

[@CorinneBlackstone]

This video is very old. Design space now only uses corner registration marks. Your print is yellow likely due to printer issues like clogged lines run some printer maintenance and see if that fixes the issue

could be a lighting issue or your black box isn't black enough. print then cut is temperamental

You can but the color on the character will be altered.

OK so I could do like a colored background and print it on white card stock right and it will look ok

[@megankoontzatc]

Please help!! Every single time, no matter what I try, when I print & cut with text that I did, it cuts each individual letter instead of just the outline. I have flattened, attached, everything I can think of. I have watched so many videos. I do not know what I am doing wrong!

[@CorinneBlackstone]

You are not flattening to a shape

[@feliciaarenas3191]

This was the comment and suggestion I’ve been looking for for two hours lol

[@coleyklug5119]

Can you do multiple on one sheet if they're small enough? I can't get the register marks so do around each individual one.

[@CorinneBlackstone]

Yes you can do multiple on one sheet. It will be one big box aroubd all of them

[@yaritzarodriguez8522]

Great video! It helped me to learn how to use my Cricut. For some reason I can’t change the text and image to just print. My design space temple does not show the scissors icon, but instead has the word and doesn’t allow me to change it to print... any suggestions? I can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong.

[@cryavi2005]

Try draw. I dont have a computer so I've been using my phone for all my projects. So what ever you want printed press draw. Then after that put a box around the the whole project and press attach. That might work

[@tammieanderson2084]

Can you do this with an image and adding words with printable iron on for tshirts, I can't find where you said change the words to print....when I did it, it cut the words out.

Yes but you need to have a solid shape behind it or it’s going to cut the words out be sure to flatten everything to the solid shape

You would have to make the background design brown and the words white. Then the printer will print the brown area but leave the white area. You would need to do that on white paper
