How To Fill in Your Cricut FONTS! Stop Outlining Fonts 😭

[@Ana-bu3hh]

Wow, I don't understand why Cricut doesn't make it simple to do these kinds of tasks. Thanks for the video.

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

You're welcome!

[@marydomijanliegeot9086]

I’ve been waiting for this feature. Glad your doing a love for it.

[@elliefoust]

I know right! Thank goodness for everyone in the community trying things to find hacks!

[@barbaranewman2977]

This technique is also helpful for engraving.

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Yay!!!

[@queenofhearts57]

Has anyone tried this with engraving on acrylic? Will it fill it in and hopefully not crack?

[@mariajohnston2147]

Could you take 2 line files and rotate one and layer and weld it before adding text and slicing? Just wondering.

[@lindanelson298]

Thank you so much for this information. Can you also add a cut so it is cut out after the full in?

[@Im.a.Whosoever]

I LOVE THIS ❤ I wish Cricut would just add this on an update or something lol! How easy right? If you guys can hack it, I'm sure Cricut could find a way as well. Ya'll do such a great job 👏 and I was so, so, so excited to see this video from you guys. I love using pens, markers, etc. In my Cricut Maker, But having to fill/color in a text myself is time consuming at times! THANK YOUUU!!!!!!!!! 😊

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

So glad you love it! You're welcome!❤

[@EzzyDT]

Thanks for the video? Do you have a video using an embossing pen?

[@zullo3529]

This is a great hack. I’m sure it works best on a thicker font. Thanks Lauren

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

You are welcome!🙂

[@cindiarteglier9641]

Thanks for this, though I have to say it -- why can't Cricut just make fonts that will write filled in, particularly since they show on the font list as solid letters. It's really annoying to have to do this kind of word-around to get basic writing.

[@linanajmeddine902]

What’s that black box you’re using

[@kimder8522]

Why do you need to do one horizontal and one vertical and then pile them one on top of the other? Would adding the word with vertical lines to the square with horizontal line and slicing again have a different result? I've never done this. Thank you so much for this it's a game changer 😃

[@Texaschic79915]

No reply ha? I’m wondering the same thing

[@flowerlily1]

Great video Lauren! Thanks! Just a clarification, @17:18 you mean the outline text needs to be in front of the colored text right?

[@ashleycorbaley1257]

Awesome! Can you use this to fill in pictures too or just fonts?

[@kristenputikka4960]

Why wouldn't you just print it on your printer? I'm new, so please enlighten me.

[@hishunnibunni]

I’m doing it now to make a “handwritten” letter from Santa

[@reneeboyd7695]

Question: The Maker 3 doesn't require the adapters for non-Cricut pens? Or are the Crayola Markers just the same diameter as the Cricut Pens?

[@beccahodge1866]

Glad to see this live. I am more of a visual person, so seeing this done will help me so much.

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Yay!!!

[@KatieDarden]

Can you use a crayola marker with a Joy?

[@dalenegarcia3444]

It would be nice to get a link for the file. I have no idea where to get it.

[@janmccary351]

I’ve never done anything like this before so this is probably going to be a dumb question. Why do you put the lines in the letters? Is it to fill in the letters better?

[@robira1313]

The pens are drawing each and every line thereby filling it in. It is coloring-in the fonts.

[@AnthonyPerez]

These seem to not work anymore with new cicrut software.

[@flossingdebi]

This is a fantastic tutorial!! I like that you also showed what it would look like to use another pen besides the Cricut pens. I did not see you attach the black outline to the 2 green Asher"s- does it not need to be attached??

[@LorraineCastellon-Rowe]

Thank you MGL and whoever created this file for us!!! I know it must have taken a while just to create the file!! I appreciate it so much!! Total game changer! Thanks again!! 💯👏💗💯👏💗💯👏💗

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Our pleasure! ❤

[@heathermolsbee5751]

This is amazing!! Can’t wait to try it. Do you always make the file 7”? What if your project is larger than 7”? Thank you!

[@1crafter2another]

The link for the lines file is broken. Do you have an updated link?

Can I ask you for the website for the lines

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

It's from our website makersgonnalearn.com/cut_files/lines-2/.

[@stickinug]

Thank you!

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Any time!

[@eyeswide_open6475]

I would like to purchase your hatch fill line pattern I do not want to be a member I already have enough memberships how could I purchase just that particular file

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

You can purchase it here makersgonnalearn.com/cut_files/lines-2/. If you need assistance email us at [e-mail]. Thank you!

[@bfigueroa419]

It says for members only. I didn't see a way to purchase it outright.

[@djsimmy3270]

@@bfigueroa419 perhaps do the $1 membership get your 20 cut files then cancel

[@melanieb4723]

je ne reussi pas ;a le faire meme en suivant les étaples. il revient toujours a imprimer et couper.

[@sheliaparker4573]

Wow, great hack!

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Thank you!

[@Ma-Moo2047]

...and of course I miss the live 😂😂

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

No worries, you can still watch the replay.

[@britnymichelle4245]

I know this is the wrong video but can anyone help me? I try to follow the print vinyl tutorials and I’m doing it properly but the ink always comes off when I go to apply it after the decal is done. The ink stays on the transfer tape even if I seal it. What could be causing this?

[@robira1313]

Sounds like you are printing on the wrong side!

[@LJHLU]

Couldn’t you just take a square shape put it to the color you want add your welded font and slice it! Just asking?

[@15aj1991]

Unfortunately no, it will still be in outline form when you turn it to the pen operation. Cricut has yet to come out with a way to fill in the fonts when using the pen operation. For now, this is the only way to do it.

[@rosaesparza2599]

I can’t find the file on the website??

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Here's the link makersgonnalearn.com/cut_files/lines-2/.

[@jillianoliastro2921]

I am not sure why I cannot get this to work. I feel so silly. I have followed the directions to a T and every time it still goes just bubble letters.

[@trinawilson9008]

me too - did you ever get an answer?

[@margaretdossantos7563]

Wow I am soooo lost

[@chriswitherspoon6054]

Have you tried this lately. It is 10/22 & the technique no longer works

[@christyrednour677]

where is the line thing
