Writing and Addressing Envelopes With Your Cricut

[@maddiewallacex]

This was sooo helpful for my wedding that’s upcoming up! I just got my cricut for Christmas and you’ve taught me 90% of what I’ve learned, so thank you. In addition, you are so dang cute. I love your high energy and how cheerful you always are. You brighten my day every video 😊

[@Pat310S]

Tanner You do a really great job with your video teachings!! I love how clear and the normal speedyou use with your words, some people do videos and they don't speak up or they speak way to fast. I'm really glad that I came across your videos last fall. you and your tweam do an AWESOME JOB!! looking forward to the summit!

[@melissaleigh7282]

Best video for addressing an envelope. You did not leave out a step. Thank you for that. As a newbie, I need every step.

[@angelabenson6118]

So so happy to see a beautifully clear and concise tutorial for Cricut on an iPad 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼yay Thankyou

[@angelacanales7562]

Thank you so much!! I wasted so much time trying to figure this out using other sites. You are spot on and so helpful.

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Awe, thanks for your kind words! We're happy to help!

[@veroy7602]

I love your videos! ... I am a beginner using the new cricut machines, and you have helped me a lot and with your videos it has become easier for me.. ☺️

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

You are so welcome! Thank you for your kind words!

[@memeow10]

I just want to say thank you so much for saying the material setting! I have watched 3 other videos on labeling envelopes and they always skipped that step!!

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Oh goodness! We're sorry you had to watch so many videos to find that, but thank you for watching and commenting!

[@mbinder6508]

Very clear, concise instruction: I am anxious to try it however; I will place the mailing address lower on the envelope. I believe the postal equipment scans the bottom 1/3 of the envelope for the mailing address.

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

You got this!! You will do great

[@reannaroland1810]

Looove this! Thank you so much

[@nikkihoffman2891]

Wonderful instruction. Clear, Easy t follow and great teaching voice. Well done!!

[@donnaslove325]

Hi Tanner! Thank u so much for this awesome video! I always wanted to know how to do this. Lol didn’t realize it was so easy. Love & Hugs, Donna

[@catinapitzen7964]

Thank you so much! I have wanted to learn to do this forever! Loving your videos. I live in Ohio now, but am from Kingsport, Tennessee! I can hear you have my accent.

[@annikahietpas2853]

Is there a good way to do multiple envelopes at a time? I am curious how you would make it "print" them in the correct place on the mat.

[@BelizaMar]

Select all of them and attach them all with the correct spacing. Then when it comes to drawing they draw in the correct spot

[@barbblair7159]

Awesome tutorial!

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Glad you liked it!

[@ssharp11]

Excellent start to finish tutorial. Thank you! Wishing you and the entire MGL team a super week. Hugs Susan

Ty for your teachings. I wanted this video lesson!!

[@cathyconey3273]

I use to do this now I have a craft printer to do it for me! Nice video as usual

[@pamwillard3681]

Loving ur helpful videos! I’m a newbie to Cricut, daughter got engaged finally could justify the purchase 😉 With the addressing envelopes do U have any videos on doing multiples? We only need ab 60 but idk how to do more than one at a time- u mention snap mat feature but don’t see the link. I’m pretty bad at all this but am trying!

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Here's the video! You can do several at one time if you want :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/gX2kmJebjNeMbaM .

[@TheSweettdity]

Thanx a million! This was such an awesome video 🤗

[@straightupmainstream]

Hi Tanner! I was wondering if you had made/ could make a video for writing text without having the hollow words? Just got a cricut maker for Mother’s Day and it came with a 0.4 marker. I’ve tried multiple fonts that came with the cricut access free trial but can’t seem to shake the hollowness. Any tips or tricks? Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Unfortunately, you cannot fill in fonts with your machine. It will only color the outline. You'll have to fill them in by hand if you choose to do so. We wish there was a hack!

[@erikabarnard7938]

@@MakersGonnaLearn dang, thank you for that! I had been trying to figure it out as well

[@marissahenley9354]

Is there a way to fill in the gaps in the words?

[@janielingner]

Thanks for this great video!

[@Supra_Na96]

Fantastic!!!!

[@sunnybunny222]

Thank you so much for this video! I have been wondering how to do this specifically. I just found you on youtube and I see that you are using an iPad. I have never used an iPad for my cricut. I am going to search through your videos to see how you started that. But if you have a link handy....lol So many questions and I cannot even think of them... Donna

[@couponing4ever]

You must of read my mind lol I was just going to seatfor a video to do this and bam!! This notification pops up 😁😁💖

[@charmaineedwards9724]

I have a Cricut Explore One. I don't see the option to select which marker I'm using. Is that a DS feature? If so, where exactly do I go to change it?

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Once you make your design "draw", to the right of that dropdown menu you will see a square. Click it and from there you can choose your marker :)

[@isabeltorres9495]

Thank you

[@AtinaEstrella]

TannerI have been creating using my ipad n when not done I save to my cloud in case need to continue on my PC, but I noticed when I do go to my PC, I cannot size my design. Does not give me the lock 🔒 option, what am I doing wrong?

[@devanmccarthy]

Thank you :)

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Thank YOU for watching and commenting :)

[@ambercali4273]

I got my cricut last week…the iOS app leaves me wanting and losing my mind, does your course offer iOS and Mac ..please advise..sos.😩

[@glennspeeds]

Hello! I can change to draw in the upper left but on the right side where you change to “writing” I don’t have that option. I am using Cricut Sans font. All my numbers and letters are hollowed out. Any ideas?

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Draw and write is the same thing :) Also, only Cricut has the ability to fill fonts in, any and all 3rd party fonts cannot be filled in.

[@glennspeeds]

@@MakersGonnaLearn not on my Cricut lol! If I only click draw all letters and numbers will be double lines and hallow in the middle. If I also click writing it will make it single stroke letters and numbers. I have found it since I asked you about it. Thanks for your reply.

[@scabrellis]

Is there a way to write and cut a precut card?

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

you can write on a pre-made card by positioning it on the mat just like we do in this tutorial so it will write on the part of the card you want :)

[@lisaneufeld5927]

My screen on my laptop doesn’t give me that options for edit, when I press on edit it says cut/ or copy?

[@paperdogstudios6342]

What paper size did you set? I tried 12x12 and placed my envelope exactly as you did. When the housing was 'registering' the print area, it caught on the wheel and bent paper so for the second try, I changed paper size to 4x6 and when the 'housing' was 'registering' the area, it completely jammed the envelope into the Cricut. No exactly sure why this is happening. I'm using Neenah Brand A2 sized envelopes.

[@dawnbatchelder2811]

How do you make multiple envelopes, like a mailing list?

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

You'll have to enter them into design space as we did. But if you save your project after you enter them all in then you wont have to do it again!

[@krarangol8576]

Is there a way to write in the center of the envelope without the return address? I’ve tried to attach but it doesn’t stay in place

[@allisoneconomou7051]

^ following

[@crystaloakes3471]

Can someone tell me why when I hit make it on my Apple pc. It wants to move my text to the left. I have it where I want it in the design space screen. I don’t want to have to try and center it again to my envelope in the make it mat screen. Am I missing something?

[@connectedcontentnatashalee7866]

For some reason i dont have a “write” option? I only have a “draw” option! Am i doing something wrong? When i do the “draw” option it outlines the letters not write them!

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Same thing :) Write or draw! None of the settings fill the words in, Cricut just isn't capable of doing that

[@Alexisdealer]

When you select your font, do a search to filter for writing.

[@tatyanalong5535]

How do you find the word write, I only see draw, cut and score. Any help finding write? This is the updated version need help

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

use draw

[@CopperHueCollectionsChippewa]

👍🏽 thanks for using a Maker and not the others, even though mispronouncing envelope was driving me crazy 🙂

[@samanthawarner1058]

anyone know why my writing keeps going back to the corner of the page once i want t create ? im getting extremely annoyed now as i keep trying and it does the same thing even though i follow everything in the video

[@yvonnemcowen6989]

This tutorial is awesome, but I just can't seem to get the text centred properly on my envelope, it's always slightly offset, even though I centre it both horizontally and vertically and it looks perfect on the canvas. Anyone know what I am doing wrong, I'm pulling my hair out!

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

This can be tricky! The issue is where you place your envelope. The Cricut actually won't cut all the way over on the edge of the mat, which could be the reason for it being slightly offset. Try scooting the envelope down and to the right a smidge!

[@charlene9896]

I got all the way until you loaded the pen... it doesn’t click! And i also don’t know how to change from B to A please help!

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

As long as it feels secure in the clamp you can use it. Some older machines don't have that distinct "click" anymore.

[@charlene9896]

@@MakersGonnaLearn I got it figured out and made thank you cards! thank you sooo much

[@num1buttboarder]

someone help!!!! I don’t have the option to change from “cut” to “write” IM GETTING SO ANNOYED. I have cricut air 2 and an iPad Pro 2018

[@MonicaMorales-bm3xh]

I'm having the same issue.. were you able to figure it out?

[@barbaragonzalez1133]

Hi I just got my cricut today but seems like I figured it out which I was having the same issue as you. Try this: click layers (it should turn green) then go to edit (should also turn green, meaning those are the 2 selected) scroll all the way through those options should show the font you are using, style, alignment so on. You will find where it says “cut” click the top arrow and the write option should pop up! Then proceed with what he says in the video. Hopefully this helps you!

[@spiderqueen28]

Barbara Gonzalez “layers” doesn’t turn green when I click it

[@DK-sc4hb]

I don’t have any color options with my layer tab. Or the write option. My layers just show “text” and “cut”. I have followed tutorials for desktop and iPad. I have never been so frustrated.

[@MonicaMorales-bm3xh]

I am having the same issue. Were you ever able to figure it out?

[@DK-sc4hb]

No, I haven’t.

I sorry. Change from cut to what? I'm using a laptop, and the choices seem to be so different than any videos that I'm watching. I just want to write something with the pens

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

Draw. From cut to draw :)

[@LindaM1976]

Great video. Your mailing address is too high on the envelope though. Other than that I love the video.

[@MakersGonnaLearn]

well feel free to make yours lower. not a big deal
