Hi Claire! Gorgeous bookmarks! I used a Scan n Cut DX for cutting out - quick hint - weed BEFORE you remove the excess and if you put a cutting box around your word you can save so much vinyl - (that loss would have upset me too! ) sticky stuff will come off with either being tacked with another piece of vinyl - or a touch of alcohol on an ear bud. hope that helps - its all good learning fun!

Hey Claire, congratulations on hitting 40k! I can definitely second all the people recommending Jennifer Maker, her KZbin channel & website is excellent. She also has a free course called Cricut Kickoff which takes you through setting up & using your machine along with using design space, I’ve just done after having my machine for a year & found out things I didn’t know about lol.

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

Heyyyy Laura thank you so much ... does reverse weeding mean weeding before removing the outer vinyl ? thanks so much xxx

[@MadebyLauraJay]

@@ClairesCraftyCorner hey 👋 sorry I’ve only just seen this 🙈 reverse weeding is where you weed your vinyl when it’s on the transfer tape as opposed to weeding first and then applying your transfer tape. It’s good for when you have intricate fonts to weed. I hope that makes sense.

Weeding tiny bits like inside the e is tricky and takes some practice. I think you definitely need to use the cricut more. You’re going to love it.

[@RebelBart67]

I believe you can remove the sticky with alcohol. Just keep practicing, also you can stick the transfer tape to your shirt before putting over the vinyl and it wont be quite as sticky. Watch Maker's Gonna Learn and Jennifer Maker for great Cricut tips. Also if you have a place that sells clear shelf liner it is a bit less sticky but still works well. Here in the US they sell it at the Dollar Tree (where everything is a dollar).

question: I make these all the time and fine that my bookmarks comes out a little bendy. Now mind you, I measured my 2 parts correctly and they sit for about 7 hours. Should they be hard after that amount of time? When you remove your bookmarks have you ever experience any softness or do they ALWAYS come out super hard?

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

heyyyy lovely ... 7 hours they will still be bendy. Most resins are 24 hour cures. If your resin is a fast cure resin then they still may take 24 hours to be hard as its a thin pour.
