Also, if you use Mod Podge spray, it will seal the label so that the pen does not come off and it will make it waterproof

Very well done, Angie! Your product test videos are smart, thorough, complete, to the point, and entertaining. You're my go-to when I'm wondering if this or that is something I want to try.

Hi Angie - thank you so much for this tutorial. You have just saved me a lot of money. I did not know that you could only write on the smart vinyl and also the mat requirements. I have a Maker and for Christmas received a Cricut Joy which I am using to create labels for my containers as I am reorganising my craft room. Vinyl is a whole new learning curve for me so once again thank you - I love your videos - Catherine

Another Great and interesting tutorial! I've seen in several of your videos you mention moving the star wheels. Could you explain why and how do we know when to move them? Thank you. Have a blessed week!
@AngieHolden Жыл бұрын
Sometimes Cricut Design Space will tell you to move them when you go to cut. Otherwise, anything that is thick definitely move them as they will drag. Secondly, anything that they may marr or make a mark on needs to be moved. I actually move mine out of the way and often forget to move them back!

I wonder if with the black smart vinyl that it would be better to use a mat and then see how the opaque pen works, might be that the vinyl tends to lift as it is printing.
@AngieHolden Жыл бұрын
That could definitely be causing the issue but I also don't want to waste an inch off of the sides!
@bonniehewett1494 Жыл бұрын
@@AngieHolden I think you could cut the length to 11" so you would have a piece 11"x12" (or cut to any length) and turn the material to put it on the mat, no wasted inch. You wouldn't be able to use it as a roll but it should work just like using any piece of material you cut to fit a project

Hi Angie. What if after Cricut is done writing, we would hit Pause for 1 to 2 minutes, b4 continuing on, to see if giving it a chance to dry would help with the smearing?? Would you give that a try & then let us know?? Thanks much from Glenda Kanoudi!!

It actually smeared as it was writing so I don't think that would work.

Since your so good at research can you please tell me which should I get, the Cricut mug press or the PYD heat press? which would do more and work on more materials including sublimation?

The PYD press is more expensive but it does have a wider range of options. It just depends on how often you will be using it and what you will be making.

The idea of smart material is good.. just the practical side is a bit less!! Smaller pieces still have to be cut on a mat anyway and the backer is a nightmare ..has a mind of its own😂!

I feel like this is an ad for cricut. I HATE the smart label. It feels sticky to the touch and after a while the black cricut pen printing fades to a purplish color. I purchased printable adhesive paper off Amazon and used my inkjet printer to make pantry labels. Can’t say if it’s waterproof but the results are much more professional. Don’t waste your money on the cricut smart label.
