How to Color Engraving made on a Cricut or a Glowforge | FIVE Methods Tested!

[@margo3492]

Hello from Kent City Michigan. I can't wait to see how Jennifer teaches us how to make these beautiful projects.

[@wendycummings]

I’m from owosoo mi! Hello!

[@marleneward7534]

I've used infusible ink sheets for the color part on the metal signs.

[@GailStorm]

I learn something every time I watch your videos, thanks!!

[@colleenaben1064]

I have never tried engraving and see some more crafting in my future. Color makes everything better!

[@lyndsaymoffett7803]

Appreciate it, facts about doing project in a well ventilated area. I am not nor anyone in my house super sensitive. Just certain things are noticable. be aware of odors before a paint type project.

[@vzburns1]

This is exactly what i was looking for. Have a maker and pay for design space monthly but just got a glowforge Aura yesterday. 😊 So excited but also lost lol. Thank you for explaining. Im sure i will be watching this several times.

[@patriciavalore1993]

I love the coffee me! Very pretty with the rub and buff

[@marydickens8670]

Glow forge is very colorful.

[@christieg3249]

Oh Jennifer! You always find a way to do new techniques or enhance old ways! Love your channel!

[@elizabethramos6454]

Thank you, Jennifer. I will be practicing these steps. You are awesome.

[@Peppertkd]

Thanks, always trying to help us figure out the best techniques.

[@carolegraham772]

Thank you Miss Jennifer!!! I always enjoy your videos!

[@JenniferMaker]

[@anac9380]

Thank you for providing such detail and helpful tips as you tried different methods. The Glowforge has me intrigued.

[@kimsgaede9403]

I have the engraving tool, just haven’t tried it yet. This video helps give me ideas for gifts. Thanks so much.

[@SandyGooshaw]

I did an engraving of a gingerbread man (oh snap) on a spatula last year. I enjoyed the result. I have got to do this acrylic project soon.😀😀

[@lisak3159]

What material was the spatula?

[@angelaclark793]

I have so many projects I want to do once Christmas is over I am adding this to the list!

[@lindahouck6269]

I am interested to try this on a few things I already engraved. Color will truly make it pop!

[@KeithRogers-uz5wb]

Loved this idea especially the ink rainbow

[@kaylanger5559]

I had no idea this was possible! Hey Jennifer, excited to learn! I referred you to a new friend today.

[@soundslikephiladelphia]

I love the color of your walls, it's very close to the color of my room! Thank you for your tutorials :)

[@marynauseef4192]

These are awesome. So happy to learn that I can use my Rub ‘n Buff on engravings. Can’t wait to try it!

[@jozeedz9549]

[@graygamer1198]

I watched this on my lunch break. Would love to try these, but I need to upgrade to the Maker. I have an Explore Air 2. I saw the acrylic engraving during Maker Academy so I see a Maker in my future. Thanks for all the great tips.

[@cindiwall7398]

Can't wait to try engraving.

[@lindalaney2642]

Beautiful tutorial. Can you share more tips for adding life to aluminum engravings and etchings

[@JenniferMaker]

Great suggestion!❤️

[@lisadesmond2624]

these are beautiful! could I use the ink if I etched a glass using Etch Armor? Thanks for all your ideas!

[@JenniferMaker]

Yes, here is my blog post on glass etching: jennifermaker.com/color-glass-etching/ 💕

[@allisonvanparis7868]

These are amazing and a lot of fun! Thank you for sharing!

[@dixiebecrafty221]

Thank you so much! my room is sooooo much cooler now!

[@JenniferMaker]

Great to hear!

[@Lala-pi4eg]

Wow those are beautiful!!!! Thank youuu!!

[@amys4504]

What a fantastic idea! Thus far, I've only used vinyl to make signs like these. But I love to paint, so I'm excited to try some of these techniques!

[@pattypost3639]

Thank you. This will be so help

[@melissacorbin9179]

Looking forward to trying this.

[@yaritorres8347]

Very pretty

[@laurainfairland]

I want a glow forge!! ❤❤❤❤

Awesome, I must try this project, Thank you!

[@marysbugable]

I can’t wait to try this!

[@cindyadkins732]

So cool! Thanks for sharing... I'm amazed at all the ideas you have and how easy you make everything look.

[@bonniebragdon2157]

cant wait to try this

[@roxannefrossard3170]

This looks fun

[@franceshenry6299]

I love how you make everything look so easy then when I try to make it its not. Thats why I love to go back and watch your videos over and over to learn. Never to old to learn! Do you think Speedball Screen Printing Ink would work for this project?

[@JenniferMaker]

Is it compatible with glass? We have not tested that. Worth a try!

[@franceshenry6299]

Do you think speedball screen printing ink would work on metal?

[@rolo7110]

Very cool video! Love the look of the finished products!

[@barbcunnius3904]

So excited can’t wait to do them💕

[@maggiecarpenter4281]

I love this idea!

[@yvonneholste946]

Love these projects!

[@sharonh.5586]

Thank you so much for your research!

[@karenp9211]

Beautiful! Thank you for all your tutorials

[@Smallcraftsmichigan]

Now I’m wondering if this can be done with en Explore Air 2? These would be awesome to make signs for my work.

[@JenniferMaker]

Only the Maker and Maker 3 have the engraving tool. 💕

[@DebraAshoo]

Thank you for sharing

[@PennyThompson-qd5qv]

loved it, love it, love it!

[@donnakasapidis6077]

This is a great idea

[@laurainfairland]

This is my favorite video!!!

[@CAtheCreator]

Thanks! Will any of these paints work on etched silicone watch bands? I’m wondering if they would stick or just peel off?

[@JenniferMaker]

I have not tried that to give you a solid answer.

[@marianedesagun2163]

Wanna try this some day

[@DrLShaffer]

1. Thank you for your amazing tutorials. 2. Can you tell me what you are using to blot and wipe off excess ink? I seem to end up with threads of whatever I'm using when I try to color things. Thanks so much. G-d Bless You

[@JenniferMaker]

I'm just using a soft cloth ❤️

[@donnaculp56]

Very cool. Thank you.

[@Spoillygirl]

These are amazing. Thank you for sharing. 👸🏽👸🏽👏🏾👏🏾💜💜

[@DFox-kw4xw]

This looks easy enough to do.

[@MA-ts9qt]

Superb!! Which one is better at engraving the Cricut or the Glowforge? Also if we use Armour etch can we still colour in the same way?

[@JenniferMaker]

The Glowforge gives a deeper engraving. Here is a blog post that uses Armour Etch and color! jennifermaker.com/color-glass-etching/ 💕

[@tinatoney6145]

At the chance of sounding stupid can you use this type of technique can you use the round acrylic and then still use the lights? So you can see it at night or daytime?

[@JenniferMaker]

Sure! You just have to test it to see if you like the results! 💕

[@terrybarnhill8451]

Awesome! I want to use the rounded acrylic with the led lights and color them. I think it would be outstanding. Maybe glow in the dark paint?

[@maribelmartinez963]

That's a great idea. Thanks again for all you do. ❤️

[@michellecantrell8734]

So excited

[@adrianalozanoleal4242]

Hi Jennifer :) Is it possible to engrave the acrylic in the cricut without removing the plastic covering or putting son masking tape? So when you paint it you don’t have to worry about cleaning later? Thank you, love your tutorials ❤

[@JenniferMaker]

That is worth a try to see if it works!
