You did such a nice job showing how to make these earrings! I want to try it now!!!

[@myinspirationcorner4499]

I hope you give it a try!

[@nicholekennedy362]

Can you please tell us where you got the jump ring tool and your faux leather ? I see everything else listed but 2 of the best things you used .

[@lorid6124]

I love your faux leather. Can you tell me where you get it? I’m struggling with my machine cutting all the way through. I think your video was very helpful.

[@khcrowley]

Loved these earrings.

[@elgremonprez5268]

thanks, love the colours the stacked version ... thanks for sharing sizes of jump rings -- that was my question as well :)

[@victoriadeleon839]

FINALLY! I have needed this in my life!!! Thank you. I’m now subscribed.

[@myinspirationcorner4499]

Thanks so much Victoria!

[@rosemason2071]

[@myinspirationcorner4499]

You made my day!

[@nessascrafts7578]

So happy I find this video. You have save my leather haha

[@gaylemiller7090]

I loved your video. I haven't started making jewelry yet but this video has me excited to start. I especially LOVE that jump ring tool.

[@myinspirationcorner4499]

Yes, I love using the jump ring tool! Excited for you to get started with jewelry!

[@S58885]

This video was so helpful! Thank you!

[@myinspirationcorner4499]

Glad it was helpful!

[@lauralindsey9946]

This is a great video! Thanks for sharing your expertise. :)

[@myinspirationcorner4499]

Thanks!

[@jessicabelanger929]

Thanks for the vidéo. Do you thing is possible to use the Fimo Lethers with the cricut ? I have Fimo Leather and I want to use or for this projet.

[@myinspirationcorner4499]

I haven’t ever worked with Fimo leathers. But you sure have me curious.

[@kirstenstone5369]

Hi, I don't have the leather hole punch. Can I have Cricut cut the holes? If I add them in design space?

[@foxtrottaa]

The svg file provided looks different than the one showing in the video. The shapes are slightly different. Did you change it after doing the video?

[@denisemcpherson3618]

Hi Love love these!! Which cutting blade did you use?

[@yvonnealvizo]

Great tips!!👏🏼👏🏼🙋🏻😍💜 TFS

[@myinspirationcorner4499]

thanks!

[@MakeupJules]

Where on Etsy can’t find the svg to purchase.

[@nicholekennedy362]

Can you tell us where you got the jump ring tool and faux leather ?

[@PinkObsession08]

What size did you end up making the largest layer?

[@savoringbeauty3046]

The linked leather punch looks different than the leather punch in your video. The one in the video looks easier to use; the linked punch offers smaller hole sizes. What type did you use? What hole size did you choose for the earrings?

[@FBI9540]

Love your video. What size did you make the earring to before you ungrouped them?

[@rhondagilbert400]

What size is the hole that you punch into the earring?

[@antoniaorlowski3384]

I had some from hobby lobby the rose gold color. It cut but the edges of the front came up so didn’t look good

[@SherylFerenczi]

Where do you get your leather?

[@ritagjefle3995]

Do you remember what Etsy store you got this SVG from? Cool template/design!

[@lorienutter4632]

I paid for that svg file (twice- I thought I messed up in the download the first tine) I can't ungroup the images to set which piece to cut in what color, very disappointing. Where did you get your svg file?

[@stephanielee1244]

SAME!!! Very frustrating. Waiting on reply from seller.

[@lolapruitt6355]

Thank you for this video! I love how they came out! With the kit that you ordered from Amazon, did you use the stencils as well for each shape or did you just get different designs from the web?

[@myinspirationcorner4499]

I haven’t used any of the stencils. I think those would be great for someone that wants to make earrings but doesn’t have a Cricut. I used an SVG file from the web. I just uploaded it into Cricut Design Space. I have used a few different ones for this type of earring. The important thing is that the top isn’t too pointy.

[@nicholekennedy362]

Using heat n bond is also a great way to do double sided earrings

[@reginagasque4210]

Do you sell your earrings? And if so where?

[@kennethdavis125]

Did you glue them front to back to make them thicker on this one?

[@myinspirationcorner4499]

I didn’t on the purple and white pair.

[@kennethdavis125]

@@myinspirationcorner4499 thank you for all the videos I am getting My Cricut in next week and how you explain things is so amazing plus all your links you put have helped me choose what I want. So thankful you made this channel!

[@myinspirationcorner4499]

So glad it is helpful. And very excited for you to get your Cricut!

[@MCglamour217]

How do you cut multiple at once with only one set on the screen?

[@myinspirationcorner4499]

Hi Mia. I only showed one pair for the video instructions of preparing the earrings. But I actually added more earrings by duplicating the files before I cut these.

[@jennifergrissom6154]

What size jump ring do you recommend?

[@myinspirationcorner4499]

I usually use a 6mm jump ring any time I am making stacked earrings. If I am doing an earring with just one piece and it isn’t very thick I sometimes use 4mm. I normally use two jump rings per earring and typically I keep them the same size.

[@zuleikarosario2607]

HOW TO LOOK FOR THE CRICUT?

[@myinspirationcorner4499]

Hi. The sell the Cricut machine at craft stores and on Amazon. Here is a link: Cricut Air: amzn.to/2G8L2n2 Cricut Maker: amzn.to/30EDce5

Wish she would have put the size too

[@ivycervantes6874]

My leather keeps going up 😰😓

[@ShapingMarie]

It’s still not cutting my earrings out all the way

[@myinspirationcorner4499]

It is so frustrating when that happens. Which material is it happening on? When it happens, I try a few things. First, I pull out out the blade and wipe any debris off it (it’s surprising how messy things can get). Then I play with settings for the material. The one kind of faux leather that never works for me is the Hobby Lobby black faux leather ribbon. The buffalo check is thicker and cuts well. I used a sheet of black faux leather from an Amazon kit. Also, what setting are you using? My other problems happen when I am not using a pretty new mat.

[@ShapingMarie]

It’s the faux leather from hobby lobby that’s in the ribbon sevtion
