Glitter Acrylic Cake Topper with Glowforge & Silhouette Studio

[@larryeber]

Thank you Lisa. After looking at the acrylic you used, I bet that acrylic would make some awesome customized swizzle stir sticks for a themed party! Great video!

[@LisaPottsDesigns]

YES! Many people use this for swizzle sticks!

Hi dear, we have these beautiful acrylic sheet

[@annaflaviamonteferrante8864]

I have always had so many problems in cutting acrylic, or it was not possible to cut all the way or the edges were always ruined, I was never satisfied and I avoided this material as much as possible. Now I have tried these settings and the result is perfect! Thank you!

[@LisaPottsDesigns]

So happy it helped!

Glad I could help!

Great video.

[@LisaPottsDesigns]

Thank you!

[@mmathis9860]

Nice Lisa, thank you for your time. I love masking. 😂 Thank you for sharing your machine settings.

[@LisaPottsDesigns]

Ha! I think I'm going to have to start masking again. It was easier 😅

[@mmathis9860]

@@LisaPottsDesigns , the acrylic I’ve used always has the paper masking on it. I honestly wish I could get into making videos on KZbin, but I just don’t have that ability!

[@MarinaGarcia-bp5rp]

Love it!

[@LisaPottsDesigns]

Thank you 💕

[@lisawhite9725]

Love it…Thank you! I have to admit I’ve only cut acrylic maybe 5 times. ❤️

[@LisaPottsDesigns]

You can do it! The results are so worth it.

[@olafb.2929]

Thank you! 💕

[@nicoleharrison1011]

I’m new to glowforge… I’ve learned a lot from your videos but I wanted to ask why do you use offset?

[@LisaPottsDesigns]

Good question! Offset is used to give more stability for the design. When something is thinner, it’s more fragile and likely to break. A (small) offset adds a little more “fluff” to the design without distorting it.

[@terri-anneramsay9088]

Hi, great video, thanks for sharing! Can you tell me V what version of Glowforge you have, basic, pro?

[@LisaPottsDesigns]

Thanks for watching! I have the Pro.

[@simoneporter5352]

I have watched this video several times and have purchased the Cerulean tide acrylic thats masked already it’s called cell cast acrylic sheet in 1/8” white pearl , should I remove their masking and place new masking to ensure safety in my Glowforge?

[@LisaPottsDesigns]

The plastic masking is fine to keep on, but I find I get cleaner cuts when I replace it with the paper. 💕

[@EM1LYYYYY11TAROT]

Can you do arcryic toppers with just the basic?

[@LisaPottsDesigns]

Absolutely! The settings should be about the same. Just do some test cuts

[@dupescraftingdesign7872]

Have you used the dry erase chalk board from HOME Depot. Trying to get right setting

[@LisaPottsDesigns]

It's sitting in my studio right now, waiting to be tested! Hopefully soon.

[@gabzwilson2750]

Hey, do you have a link for the masking tape?

[@LisaPottsDesigns]

Yes! You can find it in my Amazon shop! www.amazon.com/shop/lisapottsdesigns

[@reneechapman3270]

Do you need me to do a tutorial for you on how to mask?!? 🤣😂😉

[@LisaPottsDesigns]

Ha! Maybe I need one but that means I would be giving in and masking 🤣
