Question for you guys, have you encountered any cricut design issues and if so what problems did you have and how did you resolve them?

[@shumichoudhury]

Could you do a video on your favourite fonts? Thank you!

Finally!!! I’ve missed your soothing videos! I kinda have an idea of what you’re talking about! I’ve seen some changes throughout your videos but I just didn’t want to ask and be rude in case it wasn’t what I was seeing 😂🙈😍🍼

Hey! I've missed uploading them! Let's see how many videos I can put out eh? 😂

[@weeelady]

Have missed your videos! Do you mind if I ask what cardstock you used for the 25 cake topper? It looks really sturdy!

I purchase my 280gsm glitter card stock from ebay. ❤️

Hi I have just came across your videos they are amazing. I am having trouble making a cake topper with my Explore 2.Please could you give me some tips. What tool and cardstock do you use?

[@JtruUk]

Hi there, thanks for your comment. Exactly what sort of trouble are you having with the cricut machine? The tools I use is linked in my description box and I use the 280gsm glitter card stock. This video might be helpful if you need to know more kzbin.info/www/bejne/mafSlHWHgp6getU

Hi thank you for your reply.I think this will help. The card was not cutting

[@JtruUk]

@@ladams7820 If the card is thick you will need your machine to cut it twice. I personally use the poster board setting. Make sure your blade is sharpe and also check if your cutting mat is holding the card down securely without it sliding all over the place.Adding masking tape around the edges of the card is also a great way to secure it in place before you cut your work out. Hope this helps!

That's very helpful.Thank you so much

Now i know why it took so long for your video. Hope your machine will work with the design space soon. I am just wondering if how many order of toppers (approximately) in a day and in a week?

[@JtruUk]

Yeh I hope so too. I'm getting the hang of using the cricut design app through my phone now but still would be a lot quicker on a laptop! It varies to be honest. Sometimes it depends on the season as I get my busy and quiet periods. On average I would say 5-10 per day and that's just cake toppers.

@@JtruUk i used a loy of cricut before but after i used silhouette my cricut is collecting dust. I still have 3 cricut machines but seldom used. I found that silhouette program is better than the design space. I can design even without an internet and cut my machine even without wifi. I do sell cake toppers too for 4-5 years now. Ive been crafting for almost 15 years🤩You inspire me.❤️

@@grazie0316 I've heard good stuff on the silhouette too but I'm so used to cricut that I don't think I will convert anytime soon. 😆 That's amazing stuff. 👏 Happy to hear you find my videos inspiring. There's always room for development and that's something I am pushing myself to do.
