[@tali.galaxy]

I feel like every video of yours is a free class, I love that so much. thank you for posting

[@uriort]

Thanks

[@jessibellxo]

I am working toward starting my own small business and i just have to say your videos are SO HELPFUL. Hands down the best tutorials I've seen for this kind of thing. THANK YOU!

[@AmyMade]

Thank you so much!

[@MileyonDisney]

You are so clever. Cute kitty.

[@carrie0]

My shrink plastic just came in the mail last night! I’m so excited to play with it! Love your videos!

[@Frouza21]

I never put my thought into how this pet's necklaces are made. So interesting!

[@colors4vana293]

this video came at the perfect time! i just discovered i could use my cricut to cut shrink plastic but all the tutorials i saw on google said i needed a deep cut blade.

[@christyalexia]

BROOOO this is SO COOL! Thanks so much for sharing this process!

[@carolstewart1704]

WOW!! Miss Amy u never cease to amaze me!! Tyssssm for all your wonderful tutorials!! 🥰 Sincerely! 😘

[@cherylh3845]

What a great idea! Your tags all came out great! I think you can duplicate the shape layer and stack them so it does the cut only with multiple passes (as many as you stacked).

[@kellyjean4981]

Great amount of information, thank you. The tags all turned out so adorable. My sons name is Meeko, although spelled Miko

[@amberlindsey7112]

That is my cat's name. Thanks for showing this and thanks so much for noting the size to start with. I never remember how much it shrinks.

[@cerealnana]

So cool! Wish I had a maker!

[@hayleywright2966]

I guess if you don’t have engrave you can shrink the plastic, print the name on vinyl at shrunk size and stick on then dome with resin? Great ideas! I make resin dog tags and am new to cricut so this looks a fun project that won’t use tons of resin

[@AmyMade]

Thank you and yes! I did that with my Disneyland cast member badges;Vinyl adhesive for the texts! The only problem with that is, you can’t go too small

[@hayleywright2966]

@@AmyMade thanks for that tip! It makes sense! I have a big dog so will do for him and until I can afford engraving tool 😂

[@Ocean_Green]

This is so cute! 😃

[@lonelyingorg3ous]

You are so creative!

[@prempremglamourz1]

This is so beautiful and lovely. Thanks for sharing 👍🏽

[@JuniorsArtandDIY]

Wow it's amazing

[@KrystieOctober]

Amazing! They are sooo beautiful! 😭 This was so helpful!

[@sirt358]

Wow. Loved the video. Thanks you so much.

[@sirt358]

When do you sand your shrink paper?

[@AmyMade]

Thank you! I sand it before I use it

[@chiiapets]

ur so creative whaaat

[@theladybaltimore]

You can duplicate the cut layer and attach to get a second pass, or you can create a custom cut setting.

[@shellylugani5216]

Nice tutorial!!! Would definately try :)

[@aphios2]

Limbo is KZbin famous!

[@user-gt9em2mp1d]

I enjoyed the video! Can I get the information on the necklace string at the end?

[@glchild251]

Awesome job. Where did you get your clasp from?

[@mozu-chan]

I love everything you create! They are amazing. Also if it's okay i would like to ask a question: everytime i use uv resin, it gets super bubbly and i couldn't find anything to get rid of them. Could you give any advices?

[@AmyMade]

Thank you! To battle bubbles in uv resin, you can use a heat gun or a torch! Also letting it rest before curing helps the bubbles to release on their own

[@AmyChappell]

Thank you. Can we also use the Silhouette Cameo for this type of engraving?

[@AmyMade]

I don’t have a silhouette cameo but From what I just looked up, I believe you can!

[@AmyChappell]

@@AmyMade thank you!

[@elizabethnewell3133]

You can also set a custom material and set it to repeat the cut a ton of times, which helps. What was the padded tool you used on the jump rings called? I need one! Thanks for great video.

[@theladybaltimore]

How did the tag hold up over time?

[@Wushu17]

Great video. I'm a newb, but can the Cricut engrave on other plastics? For instance, I have a keychain that has a flat surface that I'd like to engrave line art on, will the Cricut support that? Thanks

[@AmyMade]

Yes you can!

[@laissenver]

What sealer sprays do you recommend?

[@Nina-2311]

Hello! Omgsh ❤️ this video! Question. Have u tried doing like a print a design on a shrink wrap & then cut & engrave? I wanna try it but idk how🤔

[@AmyMade]

Never tried it! I think shrink wrap plastic would be too thin to use

[@tatianarucavado9021]

Thanks so much for this amazing tutorial. Quick question what temperature and time did you used. Thanks 🌹

[@AmyMade]

350F until the plastic shrinks

[@bonnie_15]

Hi. What did you use to seal it when you used the alcohol markers? TIA

[@monz013]

Can you do a video using printable shrink plastic to make this kind of charms :) Thank you so much :)

[@totzoz]

Great video as always Amy! do you know if cricut explore air 2 cuts shrink plastic? and can I cut shaker pvc sheets with a cricut? I think it'd be much more efficient if I used it instead of drawing each shape and cutting them with scissors😩

[@AmyMade]

Thank you! And yeas air 2 can cut shrink plastic but you can’t engrave it

[@totzoz]

@@AmyMade thank you!

[@cute.vic.gaming]

How much time it take to create one tag? Thanks

[@nasreenbegum6616]

Hello ma'am can I use resin in my same room where I use to stay

[@jasminemaymedinamoronggonz3849]

This is a kind. Of plastic ???? Like plastic in swimming rings ?

[@Wrightn221]

Where did you get the shirt file? Thanks for the tutorial?

[@AmyMade]

From the design space database

[@Wrightn221]

@@AmyMade thanks

[@2amcraftclub594]

Hello! Would this project be doable on the Maker 3 model?

[@AmyMade]

Yes…this project is for cricut maker only

[@Pom88pom]

Really cool….what does doming with resin mean? Does it mean basically making a little bubble over the top of your piece? With the resin?

[@AmyMade]

Yes basically!

[@kellyjean4981]

Yes, it’s basically putting a thin layer of resin on top of the piece, to add thickness, protection or shine.

[@ceciletsante4906]

my alcohol ink is so splotchy after i bake my pieces!! what can I do? I spray the sealer and everything and it looks terrible😭

[@maryamalzaabi1363]

after i click on weld , the picture has change the color, why? :(

[@veerenderkaur2265]

Which material shrink plastic is that

[@AmyMade]

It’s shrink plastic lol

[@downinthevalley9757]

could you possibly duplicate the shape to make it cut more without having to start over every time?

[@AmyMade]

Yes you can. But hatch filling, you have to upload new one each time which gets tedious

[@nello4185]

A quanti gradi va il forno? Per quanti secondi?
