Cricut Christmas Craft: How to Make Floating Ornaments | DIY Personalized Gift Ideas

[@nancyloomis3046]

Love this project ❤ Glad to see that these ornaments are glass. While glass is fragile, it is so much more environmentally friendly than plastic. And if handled with some care, will perform so much better 👍 than plastic 👎. We are literally drowning in plastic and should look for alternatives if at all possible.

[@Cricuter]

Thank you so much! I agree - glass is better!

Hi I made some floating ornaments last year.. but, I forgot how to make them so I came to your video. FOR MOST PROJECTS WHERE I HAVE TO SLICE, I CHANGE THE OPERATION TYPE FROM BASIC CUT TO PEN ON THE OVAL (OR WHATEVER SHAPE I'M USING) TO SEE WHERE EXACTLY I WANT TO SLICE THE PICTURE. IT MAKES IT SO MUCH EASIER FOR ME! JUST A TIP FOR ANYONE INTERESTED :) TY FOR YOUR THOROUGH INSTRUCTIONS.

[@vernicedennison6217]

Wow! You make it look so easy. I have to try this!

[@Cricuter]

They were super easy to make, and I made a ton of money selling them at Christmas!

[@lil-mac-acres]

Great video, and great idea! I wish I had seen this before Christmas, but I'll definitely do this for the next holiday!

[@Cricuter]

Thank you! Yes, definitely sell these next year! They were so easy to make and sold so good!

[@dollsmaria]

Great video thanks for sharing ❤️ question 🙋🏻‍♀️ where is the Baskerville old face font? It’s not on CF site 😔

[@jaloneynorwood4306]

Thank you for this tutorial your direction are clear and details. Especially with Canva. My sister and I are clueless how to use it. But slowing understanding.What you should how to uploading from there to Cricut was helpful. If possible can you show ESTY how to bring it to Cricut. One of my downloads images .Does not appear when I uploaded to Cricut the image looks like a big blob.😂. How can I turn the correct image to what I purchase from ESTY. 🤪❣️

[@Cricuter]

I'm guessing during your upload into design space you're selecting cut image instead of print then cut image. Let me know if that works. Was this from my bundle or someone else's?

[@LonniStockley]

Hi what font is the “angel in heaven”

[@the3meadows694]

How can you make the picture stand out more? The pictures are so light.

[@Cricuter]

You can put fake snow behind them

[@mayra3287]

Hello, I just came across your video! Super helpful! I checked out the ornaments on Michaels and was wondering if these are 3" or 4" ornaments? Thanks!

[@Cricuter]

Hi! They're 4"

[@mayra3287]

@@Cricuter Thank you!

[@crafdnonna6027]

Great video tyvm! My paper just comes straight out. Any help greatly appreciated ❤

[@antoinettemitchell2888]

I did all the things I love this video I’m making a Christmas ornament but my pictures came out too late and I used Adobe Photoshop elements 11 and a JPEG so do you have any suggestions?

[@Cricuter]

Do you mean too light? I would think that would be an issue with the picture or your printer running out of ink. I'm not really sure. You could try playing around with filters. I know in canva you can adjust the vibrancy of your photos. That might help

[@Cricuter]

Also, I have to share this story with you because it gave me chills! A few days ago I was laser engraving a cutting board with my great grandmothers recipe on it. Her name was Antoinette Markowski. At the same moment that I pressed start on my machine your name popped up in my orders on etsy - Antoinette Mitchell. I thought what are the odds that Antoinette M came through at the exact moment?! I felt like it was a sign from heaven and I called a bunch of my relatives to tell them about that crazy coincidence. I noticed your name here and had to share!

[@tracybagley9099]

I have an Epson EP-3760 Ink Jet Printer and it is having issues printing on the transparency. Sometimes it will print just one of the 2 I am trying to print, and then because it didn't print the bottom markings, it won't cut that one pic it printed. then sometimes it only prints half of the photo! I've gone back and rewatched the video to make sure I didn't everything right, so I've remade this project several times to no avail. It prints just fine on paper, just not on the transparency! I'm pulling my hair out! and yes, It is printing on the correct side.

[@Cricuter]

Printing on transparency can be tricky! Here's some suggestions to try: Make sure your printer is set to Transparency or Glossy Photo Paper, load one sheet at a time, and ensure it’s compatible with inkjet printers. Also, check that the design fits within Cricut’s print-then-cut margins. If it works on paper but not transparencies, the material might be the issue. If you're using a Cricut Explore Air 2 or older, those machines have difficulty doing print then cut on anything other than white paper. Hope that helps!

[@MaribeleMartinez]

What printer do you suggest

[@tottie24100]

I tried to look up your Etsy shop but I’m unable to find it. Do you have a link?

[@BudgetMama101]

Great Video! It would be very helpful if you put the dimensions for the circle and the square in the description for quick reference!

[@sherronday3441]

Hi there. I purchased the bundle from Etsy and the photos will not upload into Cricut. Please let me know how to resolve. Thanks. It's giving an upload error,

[@Cricuter]

Did you unzip the file first? Can you take a picture or screenshot and send it to [e-mail]

[@jacquelinerojas1722]

My ET 2850 does not want to print on the film. It will print on white paper. Has anyone experience this?

[@Cricuter]

Are you sure you're not printing on the wrong side? What happens when you try to print on it

[@tracybagley9099]

I am having this issue right now. Sometimes it will print just one of the 2 I am trying to print, and then because it didn't print the bottom markings, it won't cut that one pic it printed. then sometimes it only prints half of the photo! I've gone back and rewatched the video to make sure I didn't everything right, so I've remade this project several times to no avail. It prints just fine on paper, just not on the transparency!
