Becky you are so knowledgeable and such a great teacher. I’m learning so much from you! Thank you.
Oh my goodness, it's so much to take in using the cricut
Thank you so much for the glyphs lesson. I have been trying to figure out how to get them and use them! ❤️❤️❤️
Oh my goodness, this was extra awesome!!! The glyphs and the ding bats are amazing and I've been wanting to know how to do this for a month now. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
This was just the tutorial I needed, Becky. I’m a newbie to my Cricut, and this was so informative. TYFS!!!
Awesome tutorial! This really was helpful. I will definitely go over this video again when I try to do more creation with text. I’ve purchased a lot of font, but have not used them all because I had difficulty opening them on my MAC.
Thank you so much! I learned a lot!
My husband bought me a cricut maker 7 months ago and I opened it back in November. I've been playing with it a little bit and I look forward to purchasing fonts. Thanks, this video was very helpful.
Wow! I always wondered how that was done! Thanks! Definitely going to play with my fonts more!
Every day I learn something new! Thanks!!
LOVE your tutorials. Appreciate them very much. Very informative!
Wonderful tutorial!! I’ll be back to rewatch and reference.
Thank you so, so much. This is exactly what I have been looking for. Fonts with glyphs and wingdings, how to load and how to install and use. So looking forward to trying my new Fonts out. Watch out world, here I come.
Glad it was helpful, thank you for watching! 😊
THANK YOU!!!! Great lesson
Very helpful tutorial! thank you!!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!! I can't believe I didn't figure out how to save only specific types before.🤦♀️ This will save me sooo much time organizing!
Superb tutorial, Becky & Design Bundles are the Best!!
🖖👍planning on going back to work in order to support my new CRICUT habit! Great tutorial Ms Becky!
Becky, I absolutely love your videos, they are so informative, helpful, and I've learnt more from just two of your videos than I have thought possible. THANK YOU so much. I have so many great fonts that I just didn't know how to use to their full potential, now, thanks to you, I'm going to have sooooooooo much fun designing extra special, personal gifts for friends and family. 💗💗💗💗
Thank you so much for your kind words! Also, thank you for watching! 😊
And ... another great video! Gliphs and ding bats have my head spinning but super cool. Thanks
Thank you for your great tutorial video
Amazing video thank you.
thank you!!!
I’m about to start making some teeshirts for my grandson. Well, getting started is a little intimidating so it wouldn’t be bad to have you on speed dial. LOL I enjoy your videos very much. You are easy to follow. I think the hardest part is the design space. 😉 👍🏻
I agree
You are an excellent instructor.
Thank you for watching! 😊
Thank you I have had a Cricut for two years and can’t figure out how to do text this helped some what
Wow! Thank you for this wonderful tutorial!
Thank you for watching! If you have any questions, please let us know! We are here if you need us.
I am a newbie and this helped me so much! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Great tutorial. Thank you! 😊
Glad it was helpful!
Wow. Alit to take in but so informing. Thanks so much.
Glad it was helpful!
I do not download fonts just because I had no idea how to find them or use them. Now I may try some
Thank you! Most people want to tell us how to be can I used and not teach us how to work the computer part, so thank you so much
You're welcome, we're always happy to help!
I got a new Cricut for Christmas. I set it up and did the test cut and haven't done anything else with it :( I've wanted one forever but this thing is pretty intimidating! I think this video will be very useful for me to reference!! Thanks so much for sharing!!!❤
Type in cricut tutorials on you tube. PattyAnnes Place, Crifty crafty and craft with Sarah have some great ones but really its about finding who you like. Becky is phenomenal here. I like straight to the point not chit chatty. I have had cricut since 2007/2008 and just bought a cameo 4 with silhouette business edition and I thankfully still get Becky and PattyAnne.
@@surgicaltechcrafter2169 thanks so much! I will check them out!!! I appreciate the tips!! Have a wonderful day!!❤
How'd you know this newbie was struggling with fonts she downloaded today? I may fall into the "dingbat" category myself. = ) This really helped, and I will definitely watch it several times as I work through the process. Thanks!!
This was very helpful. I have an uber simple question. Sometimes I can't select my text. I double click but it does not work. It just keeps the box selected. Do you have any hints for this? It's driving me nuts!
Do you have a video that shows how to make sure each of your letters come out how they are suppose to and not cut backwards. ex- when I cut fonts my R comes out backwards.
still need help. thank you for your video. none of te videos i have watched do not address the height and width buttons. Are they for the height and width of the whole sentence? whole saying for a sign? or just letters? so if it says 5 on height does that mean each letter is 5" tall or the whole deisng is 5" tall. I want to make a sign like 8" wide x 5" tall. Then if i make a sentence and i want to add a word after the design is saved, how do i do it? thank you
Great Tutorial. Why did you choose Open Type Fonts vs True Type Fonts? What is the difference?
Hey Nikoshia! I have always heard that OTF is more versatile, but I am not knowledgeable enough on this topic to give you an immediate answer, but I will learn or I will have someone from the Design Bundles team help out. Hope this helps! ---Becky
Thanks Becky, this was a great tutorial!
Question: Do you have to "purchase" the fonts "first" before working with the character map and the dingbats & glyphs? Or will this technique also work with some of the "free" fonts within Cricut Design Space?
Hey Mary! This technique will work with any font, but only certain fonts will have the extra glyphs for you to use. I'm not overly familiar with what fonts are available in Design Space since I grab most of mine from FontBundles.net. I'll link you to a free font that you can download, it has glyphs that you can play with. Hope this helps! ---Becky
fontbundles.net/free-fonts/seasonal/childish-a-lovely-font-calligraphy
@@DesignBundles I downloaded the Childish font. In the character map, using Unicode sub range and private use characters, I am getting boxes with x’s. Does that mean there is none, or that I am doing something wrong?
Hi Becky! This was so helpful for my Cricut. Is it the same process for Silhouette?
Hey Carrie! Good news is that Silhouette Studio is more font-friendly, but yes, a lot of these principles will apply. I also have a cool Text Effects video for Silhouette Studio you might enjoy! Hope this helps! ---Becky

@@DesignBundles Thanks Becky!😊
Hi. I noticed that when you start a new project, your operation box say's "cut" in the operation box. I can only seem to get" basic cut" which prints then cuts the text. How do I get it that it is "cut" only as you have it. Hope this makes sense. Many thanks
How do you keep the letters aligned when you’re moving them? Great info!! Thanks
My video is a bad example of this, but you can always reference your grid lines to make sure they stay straight. I turn my grid off, so I can't show you in this video what it looks like, but as long as your grid is on this will be easier. Hope this helps! ---Becky
I use my arrow keys to move the letters around. That way it helps me to keep them straight. That works beat for me, anyway.
I was hoping there was an easy trick like holding down the shift key or the control key. 😢
What loading fonts on iPad mini. Any videos for that
Hey Melissa, I don't think so but I'll add it to the list for upcoming videos. Hope this helps! ---Becky
Can you help me? When I click the letter T for text the box does not open for me to type text.
Do you know when you typed Happy V day, you get the 4 corners with the X, the curve, the lock box why I don't get those symbols when I highlight any box??
Hi Milly! Would you be able to send a screen shot to mail@designbundles.net and we can better help troubleshoot! - Dawn
Can you guys do projects using markers and fine point pens
Absolutely! These are on the list! Thanks for the awesome request! ---Becky
@@DesignBundles I’m excited thank you for replying !
Thank you for your informative video! I, for the life of me, cannot figure out how to keep my font together where it prints all in one chain. It keeps cutting out each individual letter. I want the whole word to print as one. What am I doing or not doing? I am beyond frustrated with Cricut at this point. Thanks!
Hi Kristen! After you type your wording, highlight it and then click weld. This will make the letters all one, connected word. - Dawn
@@DesignBundles Thank you! I have it selected and it keeps cutting the letters separately. I have been testing it on regular paper on the mat because I do not want to waste the vinyl.
Is there a way of writing (say) 3 lines of text in a text box, then having all 3 lines a different font? I have only manage to achieve this by having 3 text boxes, then put them together as near as possible. there must be an easier way. Thank you. Julie
Hi there! To change each line to a different font, they would need to be different text boxes, otherwise it will adjust the font for all three lines in one box.
@@DesignBundles Thank you. I thought as much x.
I would like to change the font of one word in a sentence. “I love you to the moon and back.” I’d like to make the sentence a simpler font but change ‘love’ to a script. Can you help me?
Rebekah
Hi Rebekah, of course! To do this, you would first want to pick out your fonts :) We have lots of fonts over on Font Bundles! fontbundles.net/ There is also a free section! :) Once you have downloaded your fonts, you will want to unzip the folders and install the fonts. The process for installing the fonts varies by device, this guide shows you how on a PC and a Mac: designbundles.net/design-school/how-to-install-fonts-windows-mac Once the fonts are installed, you will need to restart Design Space if you already had it open and then you can select the text tool and pick the fonts you want to use from the drop down menu! I hope that helps! Let me know if you need any more guidance, I'd be happy to help!
I’m missing something simple I’m sure. In the character map I’ve selected the glyphs I want, then clicked on the copy button, go into DS, open a text box, and right click. Paste is not an option. It is greyed out.
Ctrl V worked instead! Yay!
Really great looking fonts but a bit to fast!
c o o l
I don’t get the text box anymore how do I get it back? I get a different box.
Hi Susan! Would you mind sharing a screenshot of what you are seeing with our support team at mail@designbundles.net? This would help us figure out what's going on! 🙂
I wish someone would show how to go through the whole stage as far as making it and how it cuts out.
Our apologies for the delay in response and we hope you've found the answer but if you are still having any troubles, please feel free to write in to mail@designbundles.net or join us in a live chat so we can help with your next project! - Brittany
Once you import these new fancy letters will they stay in your system fonts?
Hey Deborah! The glyphs will need to be re-pasted every time you need them. While they stay in the computer with the font, they can't be accessed directly from Cricut Design Space. Sorry! ---Becky
I think Becky just went really fast and the end of the "a" in valentines went into the hole in the "e". She was just showing us so quickly and didn't catch that. She moved e too close to the a. My guess. 😁
I'm having trouble with my designs no matter how small I make them before I save them when I go to get them they are always bigger 4×4 can anyone help
Hey Maria, I'm not sure I understand. So you are saving files and want them to be a certain size when you reopen them? Are we talking about Cricut Design Space? ---Becky
@@DesignBundles yes I make my designs in cricut design space and when I open the file they are all 4×4
I wish someone would tell me how to edit the text in the text thats already in the free projects.
Hi there! Are you looking to change the font or add wording? - Dawn
@@DesignBundles I figured it out. Thanks. I appreciate you responding!❤️
Why does my text box open with the word "text" in large letters?
It will display text until you click on the box to change what the text says.
At 8 minutes in why does the first ‘e’ in valentine have a solid center but not the last ‘e’?
Hmmm, I didn't catch that, let me go in and see if I can recreate this. ---Becky

@@DesignBundles I've had this happen before too & don't know how to fix it.
What if the fonts did not go to cricut!! :( I’m so duh about stuff
Hey KD! If you download and install on your computer, then restart the software, they should definitely be there. Are you having fonts go missing? ---Becky
@@DesignBundles hi..yes some fonts are not showing up..example like the one u did in the video..Thank you for getting back with me:)
@@DesignBundles..Hi..Is whatchathink font in the volume 6 wonderful pack like u said in your video that u used..because I tried numerous times to download and reload my fonts and that one is NOT showing up..says fonts not there!!!
very informative but I'm sorry went to too fast explaining,,,, I will have to watch this over and over to understand what you're saying ... I;ve watched many of your videos where you;ve gone a bit slower... Don't want to sound like a Debbie downer
We appreciate your feedback! 😊 Thank you for watching!
