I have it but I watch the replay. It's Wednesday 2:24AM and I'm still awake I'm retired and my time is all messed up, I tell everyone I live in another time zone. ☺ I will try my best to get up and watch on Saturday. ♥
Thanks for saying you avoided vinyl for the first 6 months you owned your first Cricut. I am coming up on my 6 month anniversary and I am almost ready to try to use vinyl for the first time. You are an encouraging, reliable source of information. I turn to your videos often.
I've been watching Jennifer for years! I literally learn something new each and every video I watch. I just learned some new hacks on this one! Thank you Jennifer!!!
I have been crafting along with you for so many years & I have recommended you to soooo many new Cricut users. I love your videos & YOU! Thank you for all of these fantastic hacks Jennifer! You are the best … TRULY! ❤❤❤
I loved this! I have cricketing for many years and learned things I never thought of from this video. I am so sorry about your Uncle. Covid killed so many lovely people. I love the vase you made for him. It was a beautiful vase and lovely sentiment.
Ok so I’m an aircraft mechanic, a very good one at that. I literally troubleshoot complicated systems everyday and I can’t believe I never thought to just put the label inside the roll! 🤦🏻♀️ I have struggled with this since I got my Cricut 😂. I don’t think it’s lazy, it’s actually the simplest but most genius way! Thank you! I’m so embarrassed 😂
After several months of trying to talk myself into buying a Cricut I finally decided to get one. A couple days after I ordered it this video showed up in my feed. Kind of scary how the cosmos knows just what you need. It’s always a little daunting trying new equipment so I really appreciate all of your tips. I immediately subscribed to your channel and look forward to learning more. Thank-you!

Watching this after the event but I am so glad I checked out your video. You have some amazing tips that I was not aware of until today. Thank you again for sharing your amazing expertise
Mind blown once again by the brilliant and lovely (and oh-so-generous) JenniferMaker! Thank you for the replay and for every step of the way along my Cricut journey so far. Nobody. Does. It. Better. :D
You look amazing! Glowing! Congrats on the new studio! Thank you for all you do to share and teach your artistic designs! I only make items for family & friends and couldn't do it without your expertise.
Watching the replay. I use old worn cutting mats to protect the acrylic for my die cutting machine. I also use them to hold the paper when I'm trying to color pieces for cards. Lots o helpful hints. Thank you for the video, Jennifer.
Hello from Australis. I've been watching your videos for a few years now, so I knew most of the hacks. But I liked the idea of using an offset as a weeding box for various shapes and the reverse weeding using transfer tape for very small designs. Looking forward to the Merry Maker event.
Missed the live, near the end of the replay, but, Wow! Such great info as usual. You are so AMAZING. I am grateful and humbled to be one of your followers. Thank you for all you do!
As always, thank you Jennifer for all you do. Fairly new Cricut-er here. My first take aways - putting the label inside of the vinyl when storing. My second one was, #6 supporting the mat in the back of the machine, I never thought of that. I also loved Tricia's tips 👏🏽. Especially the one about not letting your spouse now how much you pay for supplies LOL I'm happy I could catch the replay,
I got the free ticket but I was not able to attend due to work; so glad there is a replay on RUclips. Great tips! Many I didn't know. The tip on identifying the vinyl wasn't too clear but I will be saving the packaging and taping to my different vinyls. Thanks for the share!
I am watching on my TV and it's not live but I wanted to say that I started using my Ceicut about a year ago and you've taught me so much and I just wanted to say Thank you!! I am making things I never thought I'd be able to do a year ago
We use Scam Live. www.ecamm.com/mac/ecammlive/?gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAACpHKP_G5YsPVEtRduhlfYVOG5Pel&gclid=CjwKCAiA6t-6BhA3EiwAltRFGGw1sZdDLKqmjmK7tNqYvrLTwzF0ZrWC0TTVlvy3TsUxAl7l76Hn4BoC_OsQAvD_BwE
Watch a lot of your videos appreciate all you do. Learning new things constantly. I also craft with all kinds of other things as well, whiskey and whit has some amazing hacks for vinyl as well. Thank you for all your hard work. Its hard to get so lost in needing everything and than not even doing a project cause you dont have the exact materials. I struggle more with cardstock than vinyl personally, just for me it is so much more confusing on cardstock but I keep trying.
I'm using my new pink cutting mats to create extremely intricate cardstock designs, and the results are phenomenal. Although I don't cut fabric, I have three pink mats that are now perfect for precision cutting of very intricate designs. Thanks a million ❤❤❤❤
Thank you for allowing me to catch up with your Maker weekend. I’ve had my Cricut 3 for over a year now and I’m still not sure what to do; I guess I’m afraid of making mistakes. Hopefully this will help me to get going and make someone.
Hi I just wanted to say I am new to Cricut and was looking for some help and I have to say your videos are so easy to follow also I'm deaf too and your videos have subtitles too which is a great help so thank you for everything you show us 😊 I am very greatful
I'm wasn't able to watch the live, so grateful I can still watch it. I have an old machine too, the Expression, it uses the cartridges. It is so old I can't even connect to design space😢
I will often laminate a couple of pieces of card if it's too flexible or to help it cut better x 2 sheets right sides together and then send through the laminator x
I just watched the hack on how to duplicate something using Alt (windows) and then clicking on it until the + comes up on the pointer! I use duplicate ALL the time! I then either have to use the align key or try really hard to align by eye sight. I have copied down a number of your hacks, even though you said you have a link at the end to a list of them. I do this if I want to remember some steps or ideas that the hack gives me -- I may make this one my the screen background on my windows screen (probably not 🙂). I have been using the cricut explore air 2 for probably more than a year and though I have seen that little box by Blank Canvas - I never really noticed it or was curious about it. The ability to change the color of the background is a cool feature. Anyway this is a long post, but I thought that I would give details as I LOVE this information. The rest is good too - most I already know. THX!
What would be a good idea for cricut DS. It would be nice to see a print only alongside print and cut. So if you are creating a sticker sheet in 1 a4 and you want to print your logo and instructions at the top of the page.
I had the original Cricut Explore that came out in 2014 until about 2 years ago. I loved that machine. I purchased a Cricut Explore Air 2 and that thing only lasted about 1.5 years. The rollers stopped working on it so I bought another one in January of this year. Hoping it continues to work for many years to come. Any thoughts on how to get those rollers working again? It won’t feed the mat through. It will load it, then it just stays in the same place.

Hi Jennifer, I Love your videos, and because of you, I got my first Cricut Maker 3. I recently went to use my Maker 3 after a year of not using it and had a horrible experience with it. My mats were getting stuck, and cuts were off. I then noticed that my rollers were all messed up. Can you tell me where I can get better replacement rubber rollers from? It will greatly help me if I can replace the damaged ones.
when I have non Cricut vinyl I use a hair tie from the Dollar Tree to put around it so it doesn't unroll and I also clip the label that tells me what kind it is and put it under the hair tie then I always know what kind it is

Is it better to use Alcohol-Free or Alcohol-Infused Baby Wipes when using them on projects or does it matter? TYIA!
Wasn't able to catch the live. I'm grateful to be able to watch the replay--Thank you!

I so do appreciate you Ms Maker. Ty God bless.
Thank you, jennifermaker and graham. Very good acts. ❤❤
Thank you!
If you have extra plastic covers, maybe, could add them to the backs too to protect them also? Not sure if it will stick as I am new to this craft.
Missed most of first video here now. THANK You SO MUCH for ALL YOU DO!!!
Thank you so very much 🙏🙏 I'm lost without your videos 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗😘😘😘 tons of hugs from Spain

@@TracyCorpus-j2e Hi Tracy - were you able to get the Cricut hacks sheet yet?

I broke my A clamp's pen holder, too. It was a little difficult to replace, but I think I had to call Cricut to do it!
Thanks for the replay. Love it. Edit: Since watching I have used your hack to put the mat covers back on. Awesome hack!
Glad to hear it!
this was fun to watch and quite informational. Can't wait for the 7th. You rock Jennifer.
I'm just starting out with this journey, you have been so helpful!!!! Thanks

Awesome video - so very helpful! Thank you so much. 🙂
You are so welcome!

The pattern vinyl on cardstock hack is a great way to use removable vinyl

I'm wasn't able to watch the live, so grateful I can still watch it. I have an old machine too, the Expression, it uses the cartridges. It is so old I can't even connect to design space😢
Excellent video
Thank you!
I use good quality white-core cardstock and I’ve never had any trouble cutting it with my cricut.
That really does make a difference!
I will often laminate a couple of pieces of card if it's too flexible or to help it cut better x 2 sheets right sides together and then send through the laminator x
Great idea!
Thank you for the tips
Wasn’t able to make live due to being in Australia, but I’m so greatful for the video thank you so very much ❤❤❤

When I first got mine, my mom and I thought that it was pronounced cri - cut. 😂😂😂 Then I heard Jennifer pronounce it, and we laughed so hard.
Me too!
Thank you so much I’m new to circuit so this is very useful!!!!
Glad it was helpful!
Where did you get your green flowers mat on your desk? I love it!! ;)
That is from Cricut. You can find it in local craft stores and online as well.

When would you use the deep cut blade? Wouldn't that automatically cut the best?

@JenniferMaker Just fixed it. Got the new roller kit from Amazon. The rubber looks to beba stronger rubber.
I do the same thing with multiple colors on one mat.
Hello from Texas
Thank you for sharing all these hacks. I learned so much! Do you recommend a specific model of the Epson EcoTank printer?
Here is a comparison. jennifermaker.com/what-epson-printer-for-sublimation/
My problem with identifying the brand of HTV, so I know if it's cold or warm peel.
when I have non Cricut vinyl I use a hair tie from the Dollar Tree to put around it so it doesn't unroll and I also clip the label that tells me what kind it is and put it under the hair tie then I always know what kind it is
Good idea!
