How To Print Then Cut With Cricut Joy! 🤯 - MUST SEE CRICUT HACK!

[@beeszn]

hi! for any of those who have a newer firmware of cricut design space, this doesn't exactly work. but i found another work around! if it won't let you "make it" with a machine selection other than a joy because you don't have one set up (because you don't have one), then do this. save and exit your project, then go to your "my projects" and while having a print-then-cut machine setting selected, select the project file and select "make it" there. it should go to the same page as the video and you will be able to print without a print-then-cut machine! hope this helps ^^

[@artisticweirdbread]

How did you save it to your “my projects” cuz it won’t even let me do that

[@PetConnectionInternational]

It worked! Thank you so much!! I was panicking because I finally got an order in for one of my stickers and I thought I'd have to cancel it, you're a life saver!

[@kathyhartley4196]

You are my hero!!!!! Thanks you so much

[@nelliemair]

You’re an absolute legend - thanks so much

[@carolyngauthier]

Any other work around? They blocked that now... We can't make it anymore (even if saved)... Someone have a trick? Thanks!

[@kriswhite1249]

My boyfriend surprised me with a cricut joy.... FINALLY, my very own cricut... he knows I'm planner OBSESSED and watches me hand cut my printable stickers all the time so this was so thoughtful... then I read the joy doesn't do print then cut and I Pqnicked. I didn't want to tell him this wasn't going to work for what he bought it for. Super grateful for this tutorial. Thank you so much

[@belindamcguiness4732]

I cannot thank you enough for this video!!!! I’m new to Cricut and this was perfect!!!! So easy to follow and the results were amazing. THANKYOU xoxo

[@OakAndLamb]

You are SO sweet! We're so glad you enjoyed the training, Belinda!

[@cherokeesprings]

Y'all! I am a newbie! I splurged and bought a Joy. I had NO idea what I was doing, but was on a budget, so I splurged and bought a Joy. I'm watching this video and understanding now a little more about things. I'm a crafter/designer, maker of all things (for fun) and I have long painted designs on fabrics. I got an idea to use my Cricut for the very first time. (She's not new.) It wasn't until I saw this video that I realized it wasn't going to work! This is awesome, Becca! Thank you!! You provided the solution before I realized I had a problem. I still (obviously) have NO idea what I'm doing, so I'm sure glad I found this video. All help is greatly welcomed! Thank you! You guys are geniuses!

[@Funsizenerdfighter]

I’ve had a Joy for two years. I hardly use it because the software makes everything so hard - when I bought it to make things easier! This is a great tutorial and breaks things down really well. Thank you!

[@Touyube8811]

This is the first video of MANY I watched that actually helped! I've been making stickers for the last two days 🤩 Thanks!!

[@vee35233]

Thank you very much - this is an awesome tutorial and a real life saver for the Joy owners! You just saved the day! 💓💓💓💓

I just got my Joy a few days ago because i prefer a smaller machine over the others. Ive made a few cups and customized my kitchen already lol i was interested in making print and cut stickers and your video is extremely helpful! I cannot wait to try this out. Thank you so much for this.💞💞💞

I truly appreciate that you did the entire process in Design Space because I am not familiar with the other apps out there. I love my Cricut JOy and wanted so badly to be able to do print then cut and now I can thanks to you!!! 🥰

[@marilynmcleod1196]

Great video and easy to follow and glad you only used Design Space. I have an old Cricut Expression machine and a new Joy which I love! I'm so excited to be able to make print and cut stickers! I love how you show to flatten an SVG file, as I know NOTHING about SVG files! Thank you so much!

After wasting alot of paper I finally found a video that show me how to do stickers correctly thank you for your video 🫶

[@Ardent_Sylph]

Oh my goodness, thank you so much for this technique. I'm an elementary teacher and as a class store option, I offer to make my students custom stickers if they want. All I have is the typical permanent vinyl for Cricut and I knew that there must be some workaround to print and cut stickers with the Joy, but I wasn't skilled enough to find it. I have looked at countless KZbin videos for something easy enough to follow and your explanation is perfect! I can't wait to make s tickers for my students. Thank you again!

[@mritzrivera]

I’ve been wishing for a way to print and cut and with your information I gonna give a try. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@lfev244]

Loved this video! I’ve never used a Joy so… I know nothing. You are so easy to listen to and your directions are very specific. I’m going to follow you and see what else I can learn. Thank you so much!

[@nathaliegregoire1657]

Love your video! For some reason when I get to the print preview, my images are distorted?

[@OakAndLamb]

This happens often in Design Space. It WILL print correctly regardless of what the preview looks like, but you can click cancel and reopen the print preview and it's usually fixed :)

Omg thank you so much for this tutorial :) I already had maker 3 but I recently bought a joy because it would be easier to take with me to an art group for innercity youth but I was at a loss as to how to do more engaging projects with it other than cards and small vinyl. Thank you again.

[@lynnoverton7747]

Will the frame that you used the Joy to draw on your mat rub off? Do you have to do that every time?

[@OakAndLamb]

It will not come off easily at all :) So no, you do not have to draw it on every time

[@alexandracandia8010]

Hi! Great video. We followed your step by step and everything was good until the time for a cut when it said project is incompatible with JOY. Do you know why we can’t cut? Thanks

[@OakAndLamb]

Did you change all of the graphics to basic cuts (under operations)?

[@reneedilda2427]

Is there a way to use the rest of the sticker sheet so that it is not wasted? Perhaps another cut size for a second pass through?

[@AlfieVeldon]

I had the same problem yeah just cut it and then reuse the rest

[@TheEpicEmma]

Thank you so so much! It worked on the first try for me!

[@OakAndLamb]

YAY!

[@anafonseca8748]

This is a great video thank you. How do I connect my printer to the critcut? I have a joy

[@OakAndLamb]

You wouldn't connect your printer to the Cricut, you would connect it to the device you're using for Design Space :) You can do this in the printer settings menu on your device :)

Hello may I ask how do you change the machine on an ipad I don’t have a computer so I use an ipad but I don’t know how to change the machine? Is there a way to change it in an ipad or no I need a computer?

The option is right when you open Design Space on your device, you'll click on the hamburger menu in the top left of the screen and click on "machine selection" :)

Is the sticker paper waterproof

It is not, there is no waterproof sticker paper :) Since the paper HAS to soak in ink, that means it can also soak up water! Some are water resistant, but not waterproof! Good question! :)
