NOTE: I did not say Make The Cut is compatible with Cricut. What I said and demonstrated was how you can EXPORT an SVG to Design Space or Canvas Workspace 😉 Hopefully this helps all the people commenting and emailing me. So again, Make The Cut is used to create and export.

*MAKE THE CUT - NOT COMPATIBLE WITH CRICUT!! I'm very well aware of this fact. It's said that on the website for more than 10 years. This video shows you how to import, create, then EXPORT an SVG. It has nothing to do with cutting files on your Cricut. That's what Design Space is for. Thank You!* 💗💗

I have Cricut Maker and Joy and Brother Scan n Cut DX125, I have never heard of make the cut program, so this was very informative to know there is something better than ink space which I hate and struggle with, and Adobe Illustrator which is highly expensive, and have not used in probably 7 years because upgrading, keeping up with windows versions changing etc was equally as expensive. I love Owls and Penguins, I so adored your Cricut dress up! thank you so much for another useful and fun video.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I LOVE that you are doing Scan'NCut tutorials now! Please keep them coming!! It's so refreshing to see someone demonstrate card making and papercraft ideas & techniques WITHOUT trying to constantly promote the purchase of more and more die sets from a specific company! I recently bought a Scan'NCut machine specifically to get AWAY from constantly having to buy dies that (in my opinion) are very limiting to my creativity. Kudos to your recent brave decision to stay true to yourself and your viewers! Great video, made me want to subscribe now! And that kittie ears headband is adorable ❤️ Best of luck to you and your channel. 💙

But you'll love the food. But probably hate the politicians. Well, it's a trade-off, right? Anyway, I'm looking forward to learning so much from you. Perhaps I'm delusional today. Nonetheless I loved this video. I love my Scan n Cut but because of poor vision I can't seem to master Canvas. I think I'll buy the Make-the-Cut software and maybe I can figure it out on my own, or with your help! Thanks for the excellent videos. Inspiring and cheerful. Creative and endearing.

My first cutting machine was the KNK Zing. It was the most advanced machine back then. It ran off the MTC software. It is the best software for designing your own SVG files. I now use it to design SVG and other stuff for my brother scan and cut because the brother workspace program lacks in being able to easily design a svg image. I use MTC all the time to design my own files. I love the MTC software. I highly recommend. You can do even so much more with it. I can take images and turn them into line images to draw with on my brother scan and cut. This software allows you to remove all the noise in the image and clean it up so you have a perfect image to draw. It also has a rhinestone pattern maker included in it if you did not buy brothers kit. Plus lots more. It is a very valuable tool once you learn it. It is a fairly simple software to learn. You will use it all the time. She just touched the tip of the iceberg in this video. Love, Love, Love MTC. Thanks for sharing and letting others know.

If you are really into making your own SVG there is also a program call Sure Cuts A Lot both a standard and a Pro version. I have had my scanncut for a number of years but don't use it enough to warrant buying any program. I do have an older Silhouette SD. The software that comes with that is pretty darn good. I do have the upgraded version of it. Again I haven't used it enough in a long while. I dream of a bigger machine, but why as I am not crafting. :(

How does MTC compare to Sure Cuts A lot? I use the multiple colour trick but move the images to one mat so you don't even have to unload and reload. Saves wear and tear on the machine and mats and saves time.

Hi, I'm curious when you mentioned you were afraid to use a USB stick (when you said your machine turned off for 20 minutes), maybe it is because you had multiple files on that stick? The concept is crazy, but you are only allowed to have one file at a time on a stick when you do that sometimes depending on your model. I hope that makes sense. I am glad to see you branching out to teaching us so many different types of media! Thank you!

@_MyInkieFingers 2 жыл бұрын

I had one file. I made it, transferred it to Canvas, out on the stick, then stuck it in my machine. The machine turned off, perhaps crashed? I had to play with it for 20 mins. Unplugging, plugging it back in, rinse and repeat. Worry, get mad, get sad... then it worked! What an emotional rollercoaster! lmao 🤣🤣

@Jsunsetsky87 2 жыл бұрын

An even easier way to cut multiple colors on one mat in Cricut….. Place the images in DS and match those up on your mat. Then select all of your images and “Attach”. This will keep all your images where you put them in DS and cut them the same way on your mat.

Great tutorial. I think it's important to understand that both Make The Cut and Sure Cuts alot are made by the same developers. Sure Cuts alot is the newer program between the two. While these programs are not what one would deem as "compatible" with cricut, just like the tutorial shows, files can be easily exported. These are wonderful programs that capabilities far exceed Design Space. I have a cricut Joy, Air 2 and Brother Scan and Cut SDX.

This is all good to know, I've had problems with Ink Space, especially using a Mac.

I also use the least amount of cutting mats as possible. I try to get all my images onto 1 mat if I can. This also depends on the types of materials being used and how big or complex the project is. If I only have a few images and their colours are easy to remember, then I will change them all to the same colour before hitting “Make It”. Then I simply move my images on my digital mat to match where I placed the coloured material on my cutting mat. If I’m working on an intricate project that has many colours and lots of pieces, I hit “Make It” leaving all different colours in the project. I move the images on each digital coloured mat into different areas. For example: the red digital mat would have all the images moved into the left upper corner; the white digital mat into the right upper corner; black in the left lower corner, etc. This way I can see how much material (cardstock, vinyl, etc.) is needed for each colour. It also makes it easier to move the images onto 1 digital mat later. Next I place my different coloured materials onto my cutting mat, matching the colours to the corresponding digital mats (red vinyl in the left upper corner, white vinyl on the right upper corner…) Finally, I move the images from each digital coloured mat onto 1 digital mat (usually the lightest colour so it’s easy to see). Having multiple colours on 1 mat saves a lot of time! You don’t have to change mats, which means less time making sure it’s even in the machine. It also helps keep your project in one place so things don’t go missing. If I need to kiss cut one of the images or colours, and I know when it was cut, then I pause the machine, remove the blade until I get to that image or colour; then replace the blade until the images are recut. At that time I can either remove the blade again, until the Cricut finishes, or pause the machine and cancel the remaining cuts. If the images were cut in random order or I don’t know the order, then I carefully remove the materials with the completed images and replace it with scrap material just to protect the mat. I have found that keeping the same type of products grouped together is also important. For example: try to use the same weight of paper or the same brand of vinyl on 1 mat OR use 1 mat for glitter vinyls and another mat for regular vinyl. Some brands of vinyl have different cutting pressure so if you can try to use the same brand for the different colours it makes it easier to get proper cuts, even if you have to do a kiss cut after. I hope that made sense.

@@_MyInkieFingers My vagabond 2 is struggling with some of my intricate dies. I am hard on machines. I killed my big shot. I switched to electric because of hand issues, and the pressure in my vagabond 2 is loosening. I frequently use my steel rule dies, so it looks like the Sizzix Switch is going to be my only option. I haven't bought a die since 2020. I use my dies frequently, but I find myself turning to the Brother more and more often. I'm not sure if I am getting cheap, but SVG files are MUCH cheaper than dies and don't take up anywhere near the same storage space. I'm also feeling content with what I have. What I REALLY want to do is take some time to enjoy what I have and use up a ton of paper.
