How To Make a Cricut Card For Beginners

[@robinmurphy2563]

I love the way you teach. Your not going 100 mph and you explain why we need to do a step a certain way and show us what happens when we don't. thank you.

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

You're so welcome! Thank you for your kind words!

[@nataviachatman5054]

As a beginner, I agree I have watched tons of videos for beginners on how to use my Cricut explore air 2. And I end up confused once it's time to use design space. I'm still a little confused, but this is the first video I watched that made me feel less intimidated when using my Cricut.

[@blairjolley7064]

My daughter just got a cricut machine and this tutorial is by far the best one we've seen on card making for beginners. Its easy to follow, explains step by step and she will be able to customize cards now. Thank you!!

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Glad it was helpful! You're so sweet! Thank you for your kind words!

[@jenniferhuff2566]

I’m brand new to Cricut and was able to follow along easily. I also appreciate the recommendations for supplies that make the process easier.

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

So glad you enjoyed this training, Jennifer! Thank you!

[@lauringlis]

I just bought my Cricut yesterday and I was soooo lost! Thanks for your great instructions!! Very easy to follow. I learned a bit about the software, too! Very cool.

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Congratulations on your new machine!

[@thehorriblemillennialmom8784]

This is the BEST and EASIEST beginners tutorial I have ever seen. Thank you so much from a Cricut beginner who still has no idea what any of the buttons mean or tools are. I seriously can't thank you enough for this video!

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

You are so sweet! Thank you for your kind words! That means so much!

[@holdingupthefallingsky]

I made a card!!!! Thank you. Even all these years later, your clear and patient instructions helped me make my first card ever using Cricut!!!

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Yay!!!

[@jacquelinesuezanne5197]

So glad I found your video I just upgraded to the cricut maker from the cricut joy and did not realize I could make cards on the maker! Thank you ❤️

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

You are so welcome!

[@brendaadkins5521]

I made this (my first ever card) today for my uncle who has not been doing well. Thanks so much for giving my the confidence to made a card and I also made an envelope

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

So sorry to hear about your uncle. We're sure your card was beautiful! :)

[@dianethiel6279]

I just bought a cricut explore air 2. I can't tell you how much your video has helped me. I originally had a Cricut expression but this machine is very different. You made me excited to start learning more about this new machine and get creative. Thank you. I look forward to more videos.

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Aww you are so sweet! Thank you for your kind words!

[@victoriajones2538]

Just learning to do cards. This was a great start.

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Best of luck!🙂

[@vanessamiles898]

you definitely teach at a much slower pace than previous people I have listened to and its the best video I have watched so far.

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Thank you!

[@pattiestarzynski]

I have had a Cricut since the first 6X12 came out. I have had a total of 5 Cricuts so far, and I still learn 🙂 Thank you!

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Wonderful!❤

[@pinkpineapplepinkpineapple1453]

Awesome video for a newbie like me. I think I can finally make the move and attempt a card myself.

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

You are welcome!

[@agpthng]

Thank you! I've had my maker for 2 years and have never strayed from what's in design space as a premade template!! I can follow this I think!

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

You are so welcome!

[@SpaceyStacy74]

Bless you for your step-by-step instructions! This is a great tutorial.

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

[@jessicacamping3466]

That was a wonderful tutorial. Thank you! I got my Cricut Maker and pretty much was like, and now what? Super helpful with all the functions at top and on the side. Thank you again. I now have a clue what to do and feel quite confident in creating something.

[@sharongales6490]

[@Vapaja]

Super helpful tutorial! Thank you so much for demonstrating how to design with the program from scratch. 🙂

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Glad it was helpful!

[@joyceoconnor4567]

Great tutorial. This doesn't make card making so daunting. Ty 🩷

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

You’re welcome 😊

[@mlwhite786]

I finally made my very first card! It took me over 2 hours because I had to keep stopping the video and moving the slider back to repeat a lot of things. The problem is, the text on the Designer screen is very difficult to see on a video, even when full screen. I don;t know why they would ever pick such a light color on a white background. Overall this was a very good tutorial. I learned a lot from it. There was one option in the tutorial that is not on the designer screen so I guessed. That is where you choose to use the pen. For some reason, my score line turned into a solid line but I suspect that's because I didn't change from the pen tool to the scoring tool. My Cricut is 2 rooms away from my desktop so I was going a lot of running back and forth and goofed up a few times but in the end, I got it done! Will definitely subscribe and will re-do this tutorial now that I half-way understand what I am doing and why.. Thanks for a "to the point" tutorial.

[@Hineypiney]

I learned so much from this tutorial! I am a beginner and really needed those tips - thank you so much!

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Chattykp]

Fantastic video!! I received a new Cricut Explore Air2 and wasn't clear on how to do some things. You made it very clear & I learned several new tricks!! Thank you!

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Great to hear!🙂

[@Chattykp]

@@MakersGonnaLearn I don't know if this is the right place to ask this, but can you give me any tips for writing with the gel pens on the cards? Sometimes, the writing appears faded in spots (and I'm using brand new pens!) Is there a way to increase the pressure?? Thanks much!!

[@shannandavidow3817]

I wish you could comment photos because I just made my first cricut card with this tutorial and I'm obsessed! I only had double sided tape so had to improvise but it turned out well!

[@craftygirlsrock]

Loved it, I never use any of my newer Cricut’s for card making. I don’t believe since the first one ☝️. This has definitely inspired me to go make some cards especially the bases with all the card stock I have 😊🤩👏👌🏽

[@ssharp11]

Excellent card design. Wonderful start to finish tutorial. Stay safe. Wishing you Becca and the entire MGL team a super week. Hugs, Susan

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Thank you so much!

[@helenmc41]

Loved your tutorial. I want to make cards so feel more confident to try after watching you make this lovely card

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

You can do it!

[@bucknerkids]

Excellent tutorial! Haven't made any cards yet, but am wanting to try a couple in Design Space. Must say, they don't offer much for instruction, so thank you for walking me through each step. You guys rock!!

[@antoniaortiz7701]

Thank you

[@shawna278]

Thank you! You were so easy to follow. This was the first time I was able to complete a card.

The card is lovely! I would have only done the white card with the writing in the cricut, I can cute the rest with my guillotine. That way I can go straight to the edge with no waist.

[@philmcavity4303]

Well done. I can see the similarities with MS PowerPoint as you explained the interface - so that’s a big bonus. The outcome was powerful in it’s beauty, simplicity and originality. I’m sure anyone receiving it would be fully aware this wasn’t a Dollar Store card or even a basic card store product.

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Hi Phil! Thank you! Happy to know you liked them. :)

Thank you so much for this! I'm so glad I came across your channel, you are such a great teacher - detailed and cohesive, and so much fun to watch!
