Hi Karley! Thanks for the video. Do you know of any cricut hack to cut larger than the mat, but not slice the paper in sections? I make paper placemats that take foreverrr to cut out by hand, so I'm looking for a way to divide my image up into sections and rotate the mat so that it cuts a section of the image, but doesn't cut "squares" down the middle. Since it's a placemat, I don't want seams and tape on the back. Cricut snap mat possibly???
@KarleyHall2 жыл бұрын
Do you already own a cricut? If not I’d say get a bigger machine! Silhouette and StarCraft offer machines that are wider and can cut a lot longer. Are your placements bigger than 11.5” x 23.5”?
@jordanlawrence95172 жыл бұрын
@@KarleyHall Thanks for your reply! I do already own a Cricut, but may have to invest in a Silhouette if I have to cut too many more of these things! The placemats are about 13 x 13. I wish Cricut would develop a system to “pause” cutting, allow you to reposition paper, and then resume the shape. 😩 With the use of the snapmat it should be a cinch!
