THANK YOU! First time mom here- finally had the courage to open my Cricut 1.5 years after it was gifted to me. Deciding what to make then learning how to do it with each project. Your channel has been very helpful and made using the machine less intimidating!

Thank you for this Michael! I'm early in the video. I'm no longer a "newbie" but I'm always interested in learning the craft and you're one of my favorite tutors. I have to say, I probably tell newbies every day "jump into the shallow end of the pool and learn the craft, then you can move to the deep end - I don't advise you jumping into the deep end and getting totally frustrated". Most people seem to appreciate that advice. Feel free to use the phrase if you'd like.

That Access membership has been awesome for me. It's not expensive, and i have a photo editor app that allows me to make stickers and save them as PNG files (and it has a better background removal function than the Cricut app does). I can make ANYTHING with these two apps combined. Not just that, but Access membership gives me INCREDIBLE exclusive discounts on all kinds of Cricut products. I love it. I'm sure it's not for everyone, but it's definitely for me! Thank you for another great video! It's awesome to check out beginner tutorials because with such a versatile machine, I often find in these tutorials things I might have missed or even just completely forgotten about! You're the best, Michael!

In the first few minutes of your video, I learned something I wasn’t aware of… I’ve been paying $9.99 a month for Cricut Access not realizing that I was only renting the fonts and designs. Creative Fabrica is still running the 86% off ($47/year) deal as of 5/29/24 with many Many more designs and fonts! I just cancelled my subscription to Cricut and switched to Creative Fabrica and am already finding things I can’t wait to make 😍 Thanks for the info and inspiration! ❤

@@mrcraftypants your very welcome Michael, I do enjoy watching you and you've taught me so much when I first bought my Maker a couple years ago and you continue to teach me things to this day as I do forget things. Please keep making and teaching, I only follow you and 1 other person but you was the 1st and I am thankful I found you way back then. 🙂✌️( I hope that made sense, my brain is overloaded lately), all my best to you both 💕

So here's my comment About cricket as About cricket as well. I think their machines are great like you said, but I don't buy none of their vinyl unless I absolutely have to. But I do like some of their tools. But I like the fact that you're. Showing her stuff, that's not cricket brand. Cause I've had my cricket for years At least my Maker. And I'm still not savvy with all of the features and stuff so I have to usually ask how to do something when it comes time for me to do something I want to do I usually just make stuff for myself.

@ MR.CRAFTYPANTS ... does the yearly membership from creative fabrica cover fonts, designs, etc. Cauze i know u have to purchase those separately if u dnt get a ALL ACCESS membership . I just didnt wanna purchase the all access membership if i had to purchase other stuff with it .. if that makes sense.

I have the creative fabrica membership and it's great! The fonts graphics etc are all included. I haven't found anything yet that isn't part of the membership. I can't see why someone wouldn't just get it vs buy the files

@@lisavanderhoof ya that's true. And u are talkin about the ALL ACCESS plan that's usually $29 a month but now they have it for $3.99 if u get yearly?? Just wanna make sure that's wat ur talkin about LOL . I just been weary purchasing it cause I haven't ever had a membership thru them so I wasn't sure. U know how some places are they say its this amount then when u get it its somethin else u gotta purchase or what u thought u were getting wasnt wat u got . I just had a membership with a certain website (not goin to mention tbe name just bc i dnt wanna put them on blast lol) but they were like that so its really made me weary about memberships. Anyway Thanks so much for replying back. It has hped me alot.

Yes it's the all access plan. I paid the $47 for the year which is the 3.99 deal a month broke down deal. I've had a membership since 2022 and have renewed it while they had this deal going last November@@Im.a.Whosoever

I'm just learning about the different vinyl name brands since I got my cricut joy xtra. I tried the dollar tree vinyl to test out and it wasn't what I expected it's very thin. I'll try the Starcraft vinyl next.

I use cricut permanent for stencil work and actually used it for an order today. For some reason, some rolls are a hit and miss and no fricken clue why. Just had this happen today. I used a trio pack of permanent today, and 1 color worked excellent while another, well I'm glad no one was here with me🤬

With Cricut access you are able to save more projects or have a larger number of project folders aren't you? I think there was more to it than just the designs and font I thought

They have some additional perks, but for me, personally, not enough to warrant the price tag. If it's worth it for you, then that's all that matters. 😃❤

Thanks for a great tutorial Micheal! I have a question hopefully you or someone can answer, I downloaded an image off of DesignBundles and for some reason my layers are not broken down. It is the word Love (in a square and the O is a Heart in Red) the rest of the word is in Black. Can someone help me? The only way I can get it to work is if I go in to “Contour” and shade out what needs to be shaded. Can someone help me? Thanks in advance! 😊

@mrcraftypants 4 ай бұрын

Hey James! Thanks so much for watching! As for that image, it sounds like the design would have to have at least 2 layers. 1 for the black and 1 for the red. If all of the black is one single layer and you want to break that up into additional colors, then contour is really the only option for that.

@@mrcraftypants Thanks So Much Micheal. Ohh ok. I’m still getting familiar with everything. And just getting discouraged, cause when I see you do things and go to different tabs on DesignSpace my program doesn’t seem to have the same thing. It’s really weird. I’m using Windows which In some of your videos that you have done projects that I wanted to try don’t seem to be the same. And just very confused and again getting discouraged. I’ll try the Contour and see what happens. If I continue to still have issues or if I can email what the image is that would help me out to explain. I just wish there was classes I can attend to learn and interact with a group or one on one. But Thanks for your reply I really appreciate it and love your videos! 😊
