I am a Cricut beginner, and I have learned sooooo much just from watching your videos! No fluff like so many others that just confuse a person because they talk entirely too much about needless things
Thank you, Angie! This is such a detailed and thorough tutorial. I have wanted to try this for ages and the programmes you have found are awesome too. You are a great teacher xoxo
Hi Angie, This video is wonderful and has some great options!! I personally use Inkscape for a lot of things and wanted to make a suggestion. When I use Inkscape and separate the layers, sometimes I take a few of the ones with less detail and put them together and then choose path, union which works the same as weld on design space, and then I have all those details in one. You can do this with as many of the layers as you want. :D I thought this might be helpful. Thanks again for your awesome tutorials!
Thanks ANGIE, always enjoy and trust your videos. Been needing to do this. So will be checking it out and trying this. But I have a question, don't know if you can help.. I have an embroidery /sewing machine. I got my cricut maker to cut out shapes from felt to do embroidery designs on them. when I cut out by hand the final embroidered outline does not match. My problem is, I can't figure out how to change the vp3 format to a svg.. thanks for sharing your video. Have a great day.
If you haven’t stumbled upon it yet, look up Power Tools With Thread and Lori Holt’s Chicken Salad quilt. The lady there (sorry, forgot her name) shows how to jive files between the. Brother scan and cut and the program for the embroidery machine so both shapes match perfectly. I realize it’s a different brand, but maybe it will work similarly? I am interested in this topic, but I don’t have an embroidery machine. I just got my cricut maker on sale for a great price and I wasn’t planning on buying a cutting machine. I’m hoping this can be used in a similar way to the brother model. Anyway, see what you think. Maybe you can glean some tips. I hope so! 🌷
Excellent!! Thank you very much!! Is there a limit to how many times you can reheat the design or number of layers you can add without the first layer loosing it's seal? Does that make sense? Just wondering if you reheat over and over, does the "glue" layer become weak or melt completely off?
Thank you for sharing. I had issue with a svg file I uploaded. I saved it as a print / cut since the screen to clean it up didn’t come up. When I went to print/cut this image it cut a square around the whole thing. Can you guide me to fix this ? Ty
You can do just about everything with the smallest but you may have to press more than once. I have a video to try and help here: ruclips.net/video/Y5AWeZMbvEQ/видео.html
You totally lost me. I got my machine for one reason, to make multi-layered stencils. I have yet to achieve that. I want to take a pic like your dog and make layers of each color on a stencil, paint it then add the other colors to reconstruct a picture. I can't figure it out. I can do it in my photo editing software but its not what I want after cutting. I think maybe I need to invert the color since these machines can't see the whites and light colors? Your dog image doesn't even look like a dog anymore, more like a bear. I think you also need more layers to get the detail, some greys. maybe you can do a multi layered stencil of your dog and show us how to cut and stack them in the light, dark and darkest color to show detail?
I would use Inkscape for this and use the layers to cut your stencils. It is never going to look exactly like your picture, however. It is supposed to be more like an abstract representation of your original.

I am not familiar with those types of files at all. Sorry!

As long as you don't over heat it, you should be fine. In other words, let it cool in between if you are going to do several presses.
@@AngieHolden Great! Thank you!!
what is that shirt you have on!!? love it..lol
HA! It was a bleaching experiment! I tend to play with crafts and this was one where I just randomly threw bleach on it like a tie dye effect.
looks great !!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks!!
Do you have to mirror both way iron on and non iron
Iron on gets mirrored. Sticky vinyl does not.
Love this video! Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
U can see my dog with the birthday hat on. He just passed away oct.29,2020. He was 18 yrs. and I really do MISS HIM.
So cute!!!
Thanks for the great video!
Glad you liked it!
Angie, I am trying to turn a college logo into svg file. Would this same technique work?
Maybe? Not sure.
Thank you for sharing. I had issue with a svg file I uploaded. I saved it as a print / cut since the screen to clean it up didn’t come up. When I went to print/cut this image it cut a square around the whole thing. Can you guide me to fix this ? Ty
Answered your comment on another video. Let me know if that doesn't help!
Angie Holden yes seen just now .. I will try today
Hii!!! Thank you. When you have a logo for a company how do you transfer it to school and if the logo has fonts how do you do layers?!
Try this video and see if it helps more: ruclips.net/video/tMYMCnlEcfs/видео.html
Can you do this with Cricut Maker, because I have heard conflicting reviews?
Definitely! It will work with any Cricut machine.
Thanks tips👍👍❤
No problem 😊
Did u weld the dog before u made it?
If you make it as an SVG, depending on where you make it, it may come in as one piece. If it doesn't, you can attach or weld before cutting.
Wow! I’m trying get a Wonder Woman belt.
I am thinking about getting an easy press but have limited money. Which size do you recommend?
You can do just about everything with the smallest but you may have to press more than once. I have a video to try and help here: ruclips.net/video/Y5AWeZMbvEQ/видео.html
What size was the heart if I may ask ??
Gosh. I am not sure! I usually measure like my shirt or tumbler and make a size that will look good on it.
thanks for info...but it kind of lost the face is doesnt look like the picture
You can definitely just use the tutorial to make yours the way you want it.
The shirt turned out super cute. T f s!
Thanks for watching!
Can you do all this on an IPad?
I am not sure if the programs I used are mobile friendly. You can definitely try it!
WHAT ABOUT WHEN YOU CLICK MAKE IT AND ALL THE LINES SEPARATE
Pick everything and click attach. Then click make it.
