Cricut Joy For Total Beginners

[@kathysteele3071]

I have watched 50 videos on how to use the cricket joy. Yours is by far the best! You don’t overexplain, but give us exactly what we need. Also, I enjoy that you show us how to find more information like how to heat set the items. I hope you will do more of these, and maybe one with two colors.

[@PosidenSiren]

Agree completely. A really helpful video.

[@mmhmm1974]

I've only watched 2 and this is my 3rd and last 1 because wow u are so right, very well explained and I now feel confident to get going using mines that I got 2 birthdays ago I have been intimidated by it until this moment, thanku so much.

[@tracypriest4386]

Well done & thank you helped a great deal 👍

[@debbiegibson8945]

I love your laughter of joy when you put that pattern on your page. 😊

[@JulieC-e4q]

I bought my Cricut Joy 8 months ago and kept thinking it would be complicated so kept putting it off until I had time. Today my Mum asked me to put grandkids names on money boxes so I decided to look up a tutorial and see how complex it was. I watched a couple but the way they explained it sounded too complicated) then I found yours and you explain it so darn well... I got that box out and unpacked it!! 20 mins later I had 2 money boxes with names on them. THANK YOU so very much!! Now I love this darn machine! have a Merry Christmas and may 2024 bring you much Joy, Peace, Love and Happiness :)

[@debhodgens676]

Same! I’ve had mine and now I need to make a wedding sign! I’m ready, too!🎉

[@elbuenjoel2268]

I bought mine on Sunday 07/14/2024 and it wasn't until today that I was able to do my first project. I really love it.

[@Bhatzahila]

Hy, i bought a cricut joy today but i am unable to do something as it is showing some subscription part. Any idea??

[@craftyShirleyG]

I just bought a Joy and this is the best tutorial I've found so far. Thank you

[@caresse6568]

Wow! Wow! Wow! I am an ABSOLUTE BEGINNER to the Circuit Joy Fam! Mine is still in a box! Got it today as an early Christmas gift from my mom! Your video inspired me so so so much because I too was intimidated by all the things it can do! Can't wait to get creating and loved loved loved all your designs! 😍

[@shabanatflaherty]

Thank you so much! I bought this item last year and it's still in the box because none of the videos I watched explained it in detail like you did. You've saved me thousands of dollars by teaching me how to get the logo printed correctly. The companies I approached didn't understand what I really wanted. Sending you hugs and kisses 😘 for your amazing teaching. Please don't stop what you're doing on KZbin. We need more people like you.

[@StudioSam]

You are so welcome! I'm so happy this helped. ❤️

[@nakedigayle2999]

Finally a video that simply explains how the Joy works, Iv watched so many videos trying to understand how to use my Cricut Joy and your video is the best one I have come across so far, I never write comments, but had to this time.

[@sandraowens9515]

Got mine a few days ago, have managed a couple of cards so far but it’s taken me hours. Thank goodness I found your videos it looks so much easier now I’ve watched you. Do you get the extra features using an iPad as I have a Chromebook that I know it won’t work on? Thank you for giving me the confidence to try more things.

[@Patchirisuu]

Can it cut through vinyl papers?

[@helga.lifecoach]

I absolutely agree with the others. Thank you for this lesson. I am not so overwhelmed anymore. Please share other videos of your new ideas as well. Thank you!! 🤗

[@kathymusson5871]

Thank you. That was the best first lesson for Cricut Joy I’ve seen

[@StudioSam]

Wow, thank you!

[@LauraLombardi-m2f]

THANK YOU!!!!! I so appreciate the way you explain things and walk us through the projects. I learned so much!

[@mattersofthehartbynat8815]

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I am just about to buy this machine and I am a complete beginner! I learned so much from your video… please keep them coming!! 🙏 Much love from Brisbane, Australia. ♥️♥️🇦🇺

Really one of THE MOST HELPFUL tutorials for the Cricut Joy I've watched. I bought the Joy over a month ago. Neighbor has one too. Will we both have trouble getting it to update to our Computers. This is a problem that seems to be all too often happening. Neighbors arrived first & I discovered she could add it to her phone as a work around for now. She did but she like me dislikes working via a tiny wee little screen. So I updated to a Surface 8 which is suppose to be very compatible with the JOY and other Cricut machines. Ahhh but not so fast. We are still attempting to get the Surface up and running while my 2 year older Lenova Laptop Windows 10 should be fine it too hasn't been blue tooth connecting. YIKES. Meantime I do not want to loose interest so I've been checking out videos here on KZbin to keep my focus alive. This one certainly helped with that. I found someone who might be able to help us with the problems we are having. We are in a very rural area where 78% of our very large county has NO Cell Service so no doubt this and wifi being a bit iffy at times too is contributing to our little problems. I love the way your mug came out. And I have all the special papers and I have 3 different sets of 4 travel mugs and tumblers in similar colors a kind of metalic pattern of mellow gold, grey, stainless a bit lighter similar to your mug and a kind of muted copper. The shorter tumbler has an interesting texture but with lower smooth space that would work well with a not too large design. And the other two styles are taller and have more smooth features all around without the textured pattern. I've already come up with 5 designs in my head for two of these vessels. Still working on the shorter tumbler. We live in Moose and Grizzly Bear country. No kidding NW MT is home for both species. We haven't seen a Grizzly in our yard but Moose have visited over the years now and again. So I have a 22 year old RV just being renovated and can think of great designs with a few words similar to your penning it through an animal cut out. Also cats do come to mind as almost all our friends and family are CAT people or owned by one or more cats. So the name for my RV is Miss Mini Mo and it would be fun to do different colors across the different color mugs using Miss Mini Mo cut through the Bear, Moose and also an artist has made some great eagle art throughout our area and an Eagle could be carrying a flag with Miss Mini Mo away in their talons. Like I said once those creative juices gets going I'm like just gotta try my hand at these. Weathers cooling down so will have more time indoors to work on the computer and technology glitches surrounding the Cricut Joy. Shouldn't be this difficult. Thanks for your insights and sharing and how to's. It really made it far more easier to grasp than most others I've watched. Top notch...happy crafting and have some JOY with your Joy's everyone. Hope to join you soon.

[@Foxywhiskers]

I am a seasoned cricut user and watched this right through. It was lovely to watch :) thank you

[@ElburroE]

This is the BEST tutorial for beginning Cribut users. Thank you! Well done!

[@blancaalves8250]

This was a wonderful video! I’ve had my Crick Joy since it came out a few years ago. Believe it or not, I have never used it🥴. It was just too intimidating. Your video has given me new hope! You’re an excellent teacher, and have made this look so easy. Thank you so much for posting such an easy to follow tutorial. I can’t wait to finally open that box!

[@davidsmith5319]

I had a similar time with die cutting until we saw an electric one on a craft channel. We bought one and then realised that the machine is only the start, after a while and buying more bits I looked into getting a small hand machine but could not understand how it worked, in the end i took the plunge and what a revelation, it is quicker and much simpler. The large electric one now sits idle under my craft table. I have seen and heard people talk about Cricut but always wondered how I could integrate it with what I already do and thanks to you and this video, I think we shall feel a lot more confident about buying one. Thank you for a great and informative 32 Mins.

[@StudioSam]

Oh thanks so much! I'm so glad it was helpful.

[@carolharper268]

I have looked at getting one for years and put it off as it looked too complicated. Thank you, now I know what I want for my birthday! ❤

[@DeevaSatanica]

Thank you so much for your video. I tried watching the very boring tutorial videos from Cricut. 😂 But your video was just what I needed and on the point. Thank you again for your effort.

[@tammybess9227]

I just received the Cricut Joy for Christmas and before I hooked it up I watched your tutorial. Thank you soooo much, Your tutorial is so pleasant and easy to follow. I'm so excited and confident now to use mine for the first time. Thanks again you are amazing!

[@lesliemarie7438]

THANK YOU SO MUCH FORMAKING THIS VIDEO! Ive watch IDK how many videos on how to use my JOY but all of them jump to steps without explanation or showing what they are doing .you have made mt understand how to use and where to go to learn more stuff. i dont learn by reading ,I learn by showing. THANK YOU THANK YOU .Im so sure I can make awesome iron on s now.

[@grampas360]

Fabulous fabulous tute.. easily the best I have seen and I have watched plenty..thank you 😊

[@saraaseng]

❤ really appreciate how meticulous you are in this guide!

[@YvetteYoshida]

Thank you for this video. I too have been on the fence about a Cricut machine and which one to get. I have chosen the Cricut joy and totally love your video for beginners. I was even afraid to open my box. But having watched your video I realize that there really isn't anything to fear. Thank you, I will now go ahead and set my machine up so that I too may begin to use my machine. Oh my the endless possibilities, I am excited to begin my newest passion. Thanks again.

[@StudioSam]

It seems many, many people are nervous to get it out and set it up the first time, but it's really so user friendly. Do the first introduction/set up project and you'll be away. There's so much inspiration on the Cricut website, you're going to love it!

[@marialinares8836]

THANK YOU SO MUCH 😊 FOR EVERYTHING I SPEND ALMOST 2 DAY WATCHING VIDEOS AND NO ONE HELPS ME BUT I THANKS GOD FOR YOUR VIDEO I WAS CRYING WHEN I WAS WATCHING THIS VIDEO I LEARNED ALOT FROM YOU GOD BLESS YOU ❤. Thanks 😊

[@MicheleLuckenbaugh]

I have been trying to use my Joy for the past month or so and have found it very confusing (especially Design Space) and overwhelming. I have watched videos, joined Facebook groups, etc. but I have to say that I learned more from your video then any other resource to date. Thank you so much for creating and sharing your video. It was so helpful!

[@1971slw]

Love it!! I have watched countless videos for using the Cricut Joy and yours by far is the best. Thank you for sharing and I hope you continue adding more videos for the joy. Cheers!

[@MMLART]

The amount of videos I've watched is insane but only one had answered all my questions... IT WAS YOU!

[@StudioSam]

[@StudioSam]

Hahahaha! Don't you just love KZbin for that. I found myself watching someone carve up erasers for art the other day. No idea why KZbin suggested it, but I was fascinated. So funny!

[@StudioSam]

Thanks so much!

[@wendyharford3301]

Thanks so much. This was just the decision tool I needed. I'm learning junk journaling but arthritis is making it so difficult to fussy cut, which led me to your video. Methinks I'll be gifting myself a Joy for Christmas (a bit early, of course). ❤😊🇨🇦

[@michaelaraccanello6534]

Thank you so much! Like you I wanted a bigger Cricut, but the cost put me off and also would I actually use it to its full potential! So I got a Joy and lots of bits. This tutorial was very helpful and I love that you are in Oz!

[@malapitrora7829]

You made this very simple to follow very well explained thank you

[@lornamancini9210]

Thank you so much for your fab tutorial! I have had my Joy for a couple of months and been to scared to get it out of the box! Here's to loads of new projects :)

[@StudioSam]

Great idea! I'll have to try that.

[@samanthaevans2449]

Thanks for the video it's really given me the incentive to have a go with the cricut joy. You made it look simple to use.

[@deborahhoward6337]

Great Video, just what I needed!!

[@StudioSam]

Glad it helped!

[@LocksforLoveTarot]

I was listening to this while walking through Target and I would also like to say thank you. Please don't laugh though I'm not quite sure if you said that they can do paper crafting, like cards and scrapbook pages things like that I know it's smaller than a 12 x 12 but I'm really into paper craft

[@TheGyna1]

Love my Cricut Joy, it's small am compact which is great because I don't have room for a larger Cricut. Did you know that you can buy compatible products for your Cricut Joy and save money. Loved the projects you did and I have picke up a couple of tips......thank you 🇬🇧

[@clairebear206]

Awesome! When you say compatible products, do you mean like compatible heat transfers and things like that? I’m also curious if you can use other images instead of what the app only has?

[@StudioSam]

Yes! I'm just discovering that. There's a world of different brands and accessories that are compatible. It seems many people think the TechWrap vinyl is even better that the Cricut brand vinyl.

[@cathymyers7831]

I want one now. I wish I knew how large you can make a iron on? Time to do my deep dive into the Cricut world.

[@nopethesesharks]

Love, thank you! Which style of hobonichi was that one? I think I’d like it better than my techo

[@voipgrl]

Such a great video! Thank you!!!

[@StudioSam]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@lbchristensen8732]

You did good

[@jillianbelan8946]

That was so helpful thanks

You are welcome!

[@angeliquewickes3266]

Not for me but enjoyed watching you being excited doing it.

[@StudioSam]

Hahahaha! Thanks so much.

[@aznsstarr]

I’m very interested in starting my own business. How do you seal the vinyl on stainless steal, ceramic, acrylic and glass cups?
