Grand opening.

This was such a quick, simple and straight to the point video. Thank you so much. I plan in making a birthday banner for my coworker Monday. Thank you again for the simplicity of this video.

[@JtruUk]

You're welcome! Hope you enjoy making your banner and thanks for watching this video! 😊

Is it just me? Why doesn't Cricut come with directions?? Thank YOU so much for making this video. My son ordered a banner for some wedding pictures but didn't like it so asked me to help. I have never made anything with my new Cricut - this was a godsend!! Thank you :D

[@JtruUk]

Lol! So glad this helped you! ❤️

You are so welcome! Thanks for watching!

[@nerdygamemom]

I loved this. Every video I've watched is like "I'm going to use one of the flags I've already purchased" but you showed us how to actually make a flag. Awesome.

[@JtruUk]

Thank you and I'm glad you found this useful! :)

[@neeks8591]

That's amazing. Glad you found my video helpful. 👍

How exciting! Happy birthday to your son! :)

[@HitoguraChanJapan]

Thank you so much for this detailed tutorial! I was able to come up with my customized banner. 😊 Hopefully I can purchase a bigger (and better) Cricut machine. For now, I’ll stick to my Cricut Joy. 😅

[@JtruUk]

You're welcome and well done to you!

What was the font you used

[@eb8697]

Hello! Thanks for this great tutorial. I’m new to the world of Cricut and hoping to purchase one. Which Cricut do you recommend for banners like the one you made? Many thanks!

[@JtruUk]

Hello and thanks for your comment. In this video I use the Cricut explore air 2 which is linked in my description box. Tbh you can use any Cricut machine to make it, just experiment with the settings before you cut the banners. Hope that helps

[@eb8697]

@@JtruUk wonderful - thank you!

[@tabithalynne8344]

Really thought I’d be able to do this with this video but immediately my correct design space doesn’t look like yours. I don’t have the same options with creating the banner shape. Has the design space been updated? Wish I could figure this out!

[@JtruUk]

@tabithalynne8344 hello, this video was made 4 years ago so the design space would have updated multiple times hence why it doesn't look like this version. Let me know what help you need and I'll try my best to assist you.

[@vanessaf823]

Good work ma. Thank you. Please what is the software you used? Name it please. I write from Nigeria.

[@JtruUk]

Thank you. I use Cricut Design Space.

[@sannkopp1]

Hi! This is awesome! I was just assigned the honor of making a Happy Birthday banner for my Dad who's turning 85 on July 4th snd I can't wait to do it! I was wondering if this can be made bigger though by allowing space between the letters when they're hung on the ribbon? Also, I want to do two additional rows, one that says "85th" that would go between Happy and Birthday and then one below everything that says his name and what us kids and his grandkids call him, so it would be "Bob, Dad, Opa". Should they be done the same way? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

[@JtruUk]

Hello, wow this is awesome and I'm sure you will enjoy making it. Yes of course you can make the flags and letters larger, even the holes to thread through the ribbons if you're planning to use thicker ribbons. You can customise any wording or as many rows as you need. My video is basically just a guideline for everyone. Hope this helps.

[@sachiramayanthi5454]

Hi , which blade you are using to cut glitter cardstock , I'm using the fine point blade which came with the meachine (air 2) i tried change setting glitter cardstock/ heavy cardstock as well posterboard setring still it doesn't cut properly i have to use a scissor to a finish cut. Let's me know pls . Thanks

[@JtruUk]

Hello, the fine point blade should work perfectly for all cardstocks. Sometimes when you use a blade so many times it needs replacing. Also it may come down to the cutting mat you're using and how sticky it is. If the mat doesn't hold the paper down smoothly it can affect the way it cuts. I use the light grip mat for this project. Hope that helps!

[@sachiramayanthi5454]

Hi , Thank you so much I bought the machine last month. Didn't even used daily. I'm still on learning phase. Let me changed the mat and see any different. Thank you so much and wish you all the succes in your business

[@JtruUk]

@@sachiramayanthi5454 thank you and good luck ❤️

This was so helpful thank you for making this video!

[@JtruUk]

You're welcome 😊

[@fruitloopbabe91]

I just bought a Joy, is it possible to make this project on the Joy?

[@JtruUk]

I'm sure it should be OK but you will probably have to cut the flags one at a time since the joy is a lot smaller?

[@fruitloopbabe91]

@@JtruUk good point thank you!!

[@fruitloopbabe91]

I just made this and it was a little different to your version (and took me 4hrs mainly because my cricut wasn't connecting) but it was a wonderful guide into my first ever project! I've been nervous to take the leap into using my cricut so thank you so much.

[@PraiseOtv]

So beautiful 😍 I love it

[@JtruUk]

Thank you 😊

[@Yui_Fukushima0104]

What kind of paper did you use?

[@JtruUk]

For the flags I use 160gsm card stock and 280 gsm gold glitter card stock for the letters.

[@theresabaltierra1962]

Great video, I can't seem to get the letter size right😣 what size did you use and was the font you used already bold? Thanks in advance🤗

[@JtruUk]

The font was already bold and it's about 2" in height. I hope that helps and thanks for watching my video.

[@Micolovescoffee]

THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO! I COULD ACTUALLY FOLLOW THROUGH AND DO IT LIKE YOU DID. THANKS ALOT

[@JtruUk]

You're welcome 😊

[@aallmond22]

Is this font part of your system or downloaded?! I can’t seem to find it!

[@JtruUk]

It's not part of cricut design space.

[@lauram6520]

Thank you so much for this! I just went to your Instagram and followed you there too. Just curious though, what font did you use?

[@JtruUk]

You're welcome and thanks so much for your support! Unfortunately I am not able to share the font but you can go on font bundles to have a look, they have plenty of lovely fonts to use. :)

[@miagranado2915]

How did you select the circle and banner and slice? It is not allowing me to slice

[@JtruUk]

Hey, you should be able to... Try holding the shift button and select the circle and then the flag and then you should be able to slice it.

[@silviagaytan7277]

thanks you made it look very easy!

[@JtruUk]

Glad you found it easy to follow! Thanks for watching!

[@trixieochoa9477]

where did you get the font?

[@JtruUk]

You can buy very similar fonts from fontbundles

[@alexishamilton941]

Where did u get that double sided tape from please!

[@JtruUk]

I got mine from an ebay seller but you can easily get them from craft shops too. Hope that helps.

[@axelthewolf5185]

Hello what weight of paper did you use?

Hi, I used 170gsm blue card stock and 280gsm glitter card stock. I hope that helps!

What size ribbon do you use?

[@daniellebarranger3864]

The width I mean

[@JtruUk]

Hey, in this video I use a 6mm ribbon. Hope that helps!

[@daniellebarranger3864]

@@JtruUk yes, it does. Thank you. How big do you think I should make my holes if my ribbon is 9.5 mm?

[@JtruUk]

@@daniellebarranger3864 maybe 0.7? It's best to do a test on a piece of scrap paper and thread your ribbon through to see how it looks. Let me know how it goes!
