MCx10 would love to know how you got on with this app please ?

@@gaillockey2260 I purchased it from the apple app store. You can search Camera Lucida right here on youtube and find videos on how to use it. They also have a website: cameralucidaart.com

Is there an android version? I can't seem to find it. Thanks!!

Awesome! So glad it was helpful for you!

Thank you! Glad it was helpful for you😊

Christine Shadd thank you 😉 good luck with yours!

Awww....thank you! I'm so glad they've been helpful :)

Yay! Nice to hear thanks! Happy decorating :)

And the short lived battery!

And I was totally half asleep and got the app wrong! 🤣

Your welcome! I hope it's been working for you! Happy decorating :)

And I got it for Christmas woooo!

Yay! Have fun! Happy decorating 😉

Thank-you! Good to hear :) I don't share my cookie recipe but I would recommend LiLoa's recipes and Sugarbelles recipes. Sugarbelle's is like a shortbread, really yummy! The icing recipe I use if from the Creative Cookier....google Genie's Dream royal icing recipe. I use tipless bags either from Grunderfully Delicious or from The Sweet Design Shoppe I generally use Americolor gel colors or Rainbow Dust Progels, or some of the Master Elite dust colors from The Sugar Arts. Hopefully this guides you in some good directions :)

Phonto was the first app she mentioned and Camera Lucinda was the second app. She gets her fonts from Dafont. I hope this helps.

Thank you😊

Oh good!! I'm glad 😉

Oh good! I'm glad!!

Yay! I'm glad😉

Awesome! Glad it helped!

I'm not using tips in the video...I use tipless bags. It would probably be around a size 1 tip. I get my tipless bags from Grunderfully Delicious in California. You can also get them from lots if other sources. Just google "tipless icing bags".

I'm so glad it helped you! It took me awhile to get it all figured out so I'm happy to help save some of the trouble and grief for others :)

Hi Meredytdh, I purchased your thank you cutter (Love it!). I have just done freehand so far but am now using my pico. Im actual using my Mac instead of an iPad and I have downloaded a bunch of fonts to pages. What font is your "Thank You" ? Once I know the I can just download the font to use it with your cutter in pages. Thanks

Hey there Cheryl! Sorry, just saw this....the font for this cutter is "Girls are Weird" it's on Dafont.

Sweet Sugar Laine Whoa, so how do I buy this cutter? Did I miss a link somewhere?

@@angelbynature623 if you would like one message me on my Sweet Sugar Laine FB page....thanks!

When I first started I did use tips. But within a few months I switched to tipless bags. Not all bags are created equal! Some tipless bags have a big seam that can cause issues with the icing coming out smoothly. A few shops that I would recommend are: The Sweet Design Shoppe - her 30 micron small bags.....Truly Madly Plastics - their medium or small ....Grunderfully Delicious - small bags It is also important how you cut your bags....flatten the bag so that the seam is running up the top side of the bag (when you get them the seam will be flat along the edge of the bag) ...then flatten the seam out as best you can to the very tip. Then you will cut a tiny snip across the end perpendicular to the seam. I hope all that makes sense! It's kinda hard to explain :)

@@SweetSugarLaine would be great to find a supplier in the EU. The shipping cost just for few bags would be around 30USD for me, plus taxes. Most of the info online, and the products one wishes to buy is from the states. If anyone out there knows a good, reliable supplier from the EU, please post it here. Thanks.

Hmmmm....depending on the pico I think you can use a SD card? But I've seen people say that it's a little restrictive using it that way. You have to have the design saved on the card the exact size you need (which could be tricky) If you have a Bluetooth pico then you can hook up your phone without the cords....but you are still going to have to use your phone to project the image. I'm really not sure if there is any other way to use the pico on its own without your phone?

@@SweetSugarLaine Hi. Thank you so much. Sorry for the confusion. I meant that Ive seen people use the pics in their phone with the Pico. But they never used the lucida app with the phone and the pico. Thank you for everything! Hoping what I got works. 💜💜😘😘

@@LifeWithAlliDaily ahhh yes! You totally can! I just use the lucida app for better manipulation of the photos. I'm able to reduce the image size better with the app. I'm sure you will be fine without it!

Yes! Strictly to manipulate images...I find I can get it smaller and I love being able to rotate the image easily. There could very easily be other programs out there that do this as well. 😉

Hey there! I just played around with trying to hook up my Samsung Note 9....I don't have the right adapters to try it. You need an adapter that goes from the mini HDMI and whatever goes into your phone. I'm assuming that all Samsung phones use that new micro B usb end? So you will have to either check on Amazon if such an adapter exists or go talk to the people at a Best Buy or some store similiar. Good luck!

Did you get it to work? Are you using an Apple brand connector to connect the HDMI to your iPad or phone?

@@SweetSugarLaine I wasn’t, I hooked up my av adapter to my TV and it didn’t work so I’m assuming that it’s my av adapter so I bought a new one hoping it will help I’ll know by today when I get it in the mail if the new av adapter works because the one I had I never used in my life until that day

@@ODY0319 hmmm…i know that the little white connector that I use in the video has to be an Apple brand to make it work, they are around $50. I had tried a few that I had at home and it wouldn’t work with my iPad

@@SweetSugarLaine that’s so weird, because they’re both apple products. I just hope the new adapter works both my iPad and phone

@@ODY0319 ugh! Well let me know.....hopefully it works!

Yes! Believe it or not....I still use it all the time😉 I use it and my arkon in conjunction. The arkon holds my phone for filming and the other one holds my pico if I'm needing the projector.

Lorena Carrizales some one told me to think of the consistency of toothpaste

I use Genies Dream meringue from the Creative Cookier. I make all my icing with it....and then just thin it to the consistency I need.

Hi there, thank-you! .....the font is "Girls are Weird" on Dafont.com .......the cutter is available for purchase on my website www.sugarlainecutters.com

It's one cable that has a regular sized HDMI on one end and a mini HDMI in the other end.

Tessa Charley It might be "boys r gross" or "girls r weird"

It's Girls are Weird on Dafont

Hey....no I didn't? Purchase anything....if you are on Instagram, I did a little video on how I get it from dafont to phonto. The video is way down my feed and is from October 2019. There is a pink background and lots of words....photos around it are bags of icing, poodle skirt, one in a melon set and a hamburger. Hopefully that will help!

Ana Horan no, I’ve never found a way to keep the settings. It is a pain!

I believe so....I use an android so I can't confirm 100%

Sweet Sugar Laine i’ll just use my Ipad 😁, thanks !

Thank you 😉

Camera Lucida....fonts I get from dafont.com

Yes...there are a few consistencies. Your piping icing is thicker and can be used for outlining and text. Then your flood is much thinner. Go to my friend Stephanie's channel...Little Cookie Co. She has some great beginner videos. I haven't had a chance to get a consistency video done yet 😉 consistency is definitely the biggest hurdle when starting. Don't worry, it gets easier with practice!

@@SweetSugarLaine thank you so much!!

I don't see why not...I've used text from many places :)

Its spelled... Lucida

No, just to your ipad

In the description under the video are the links to everything. This particular stand is no longer available on Amazon but there are similar ones available. Just click the link to go to Amazon and scroll down and they will recommend similar products.

Hey there...the edible pens that I use are the light brown ones from Sugarbelle. You can buy them at Michaels or on Amazon. This link will show the ones that they are. Glad that you enjoyed the video :) www.amazon.com/American-Crafts-374085-Sugarbelle-Template/dp/B01FV62CH6/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1539952804&sr=8-1-fkmr0&keywords=sugarbelle+edible+marker

Hmmmm...the one that I'm using is version 9.1. Probably the .99 one? Hopefully there is a comparable app for the Android??

TL Ray, did you find an app similar to Phonto for android?

you should be able to .....I've seen other people doing it..

No...the projectors don't come with stands

thank-you! Hmmm...you can use the Lucida app I believe to get images onto cookies. However I use it mostly for manipulating my designs (bigger, smaller, rotated) I've never tried the Lucida app on it's own.

The Lucida App is a great app but it doesn't project the image onto the cookie like the Pico does. If you use the tablet stand she has for her Pico you can put it directly over the cookie and decorate it by looking through your tablet, using the camera. It's not hard to do it this way but it does take some time to get use to. That's how i currently use the Lucida App on my ipad.

If you head to my amazon store I have it in there....www.amazon.com/shop/sweetsugarlaine

I have. Let me find the link. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B076F2QDHH/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I don't see why not? I don't have an iPhone, but I'm sure I've seen people doing that.

I have a 3D printer and printed the cutter to go with the text.

@@SweetSugarLaine Please do a You Tube on THAT!!!

@@ablyth269 on making cookie cutters?

@@SweetSugarLaine Yes!! Would love to see what hardware and software you are using and how involved it is to make your own cutters!! Thanks for the response!!

"Girls are Weird" off Dafont

Icing consistency is definitely the tricky part to decorating cookies! The best thing I would recommend is to search for videos on KZfaq where different decorators will show how to make the different consistencies. Good luck!

I would think so! I don't have an iphone but I would think that it would work.

Its definitely a game changer when it comes to getting text on a cookie. I've been doing this almost 3 years and I still don't put text on a cookie without it. I got mine probably a few months after I started and use it for just about every set I do.

Miranda Colatruglio mine does that sometimes as well! I usually wiggle the connector at the top of the pico and it will work. Have you used it before?

And has been well worth it for me😉 I use it pretty with every set of cookies I do

hahha never mind... got it.. LOL

@@jodiebohannon1149 oh good :) yay!

Its Girls Are Weird...on Dafont

Did you know a company on Facebook is using your video for false advertising of their product? The company is A meet- aurora and the product is called Trace’n Draw Optical Dessert Projector.
