Let me know what you would like to cover next in the series: Cutaway cards, photo cards, how to make card kits, foil cards, etc! 🌟 BIG NEWS!! 🌟 The Cricut Joy is on huge early Black Friday deal for $99 or $129 with the Card Making bundle! cricut.pxf.io/Y9KeEe
Great video! Would love to learn how to make card kits.
Thanks so much for watching and I have it on my short list! ❤️
That was really helpful! I'm excited about that white opaque pen! Definitely have to get that set.
Yes, the opaque pens are even better than what this video showed. It opens up so many options with the darker cards! 🩷
What a great technique video, thanks! Yes, i want to learn how to make my own card kits with my cricut joy please🙂
Thanks so much for crafting with me Rhonda! That may very well be our next video. More to come and happy early Thanksgiving!! 🩷
Great video thanks. I would like to see card kits and foil cards please. Thank you and have a lovely day.
Thanks so much for crafting with me Mandy! And for letting me know what you want to see next! 🩷
Another great video Kim 😊, I'll definitely be making these lovely Christmas cards. I would like to see how to make watercolor cards...looking forward to your next video.
Thanks so much for crafting with me Stephanie! It's not Christmas cards, but I posted a Watercolor Cards for beginners video a few months ago: ruclips.net/video/0hHbdpKhDjc/видео.htmlsi=SM4RhnD8cWEoOOTC Just in case I don't get to them again before Christmas, I think this one will help you get started! 🩷
@@KimByers ty. I'll take a look at the link you posted for watercolor ☺️
This is great! I have multiple different pens and I usually don’t know which one to use 😂 thanks 😊 Have a blessed Thanksgiving 🥰
You too! I hope it was lovely! Now I'm ready for Christmas. 😀🎄
Could you spend more time showing how to use Design Space and maybe slow down a bit for us beginners? Thanks, great videos. ❤
Hey there Magee! Sorry I went fast through the Design Space piece. This is Episode 3 in my series. You might want to start at Episode 1 ruclips.net/video/jbK17Sr2VMs/видео.htmlsi=T8bcdHcFkYf98PIZ where I talk about how to find designs and we go through Design Space slower on desktop and on mobile. Thank you so much for crafting with me and I'll try to slow down a bit with Design Space in future videos! 🩷 Happy card making!!
Hello, I'm from Houston Texas!
Love Texas! I lived there for two years in college ❤️
@KimByers oh nice ! Well come on back when your ready !
Thank you so much, Kim! I was working with this exact thing yesterday with my Joy and figured out how to change the colours at least, but completely missed the drop down setting for changing up what kind of pen it was, which explains why all my fine point work looks like its been blobbed onto the card. I had thought it might be my cardstock. I also had NO clue there were opaque pens!! Clearly, I need to go shopping now. 😂
With reference to what to ask for next ... it's hard to know what I need because I don't know what I don't know... does that make sense? I'm new to your channel too, so I've not yet had time to fully explore your videos. What I will say is that your channel is going into my favourites after today ... again, thank you!! 💗🤗
So glad my tutorial helped and so happy to have you here! There will likely be at least seven videos in this series. If you run across anything let me know and I'll try to address it in an upcoming video! Happy card making and see you in the next one! 🩷
Me!!! Teach me please!! I want to learn to make my own cards in Cricut Design Space!!
Hey Jeri! Thanks so much for crafting with me! Here's a playlist for all the Cricut Card videos I've made in the past few months. More are coming. ruclips.net/p/PLYJAbsWmbUWZPbhDp-RMRDaRVfZScaYct Hope to see you there! 🩷
Would love to learn how to make my own Card Kits, also, could you explain the difference between the Cricut Cards labelled Insert Card OR Cut Away Cards please? Thank you for a GREAT video, these videos are really beneficial to someone very new to Cricut. x
Hey Linda! So insert cards came first when the Joy came out and when you cut the card you can see all the way through and you'll "insert" a small sheet of paper into the little edge notches so that you can see the paper through the cut.
Later they came out with Cutaway card kits and it's much the same, except instead of having corners, (which some people complain about if they don't get the card on the mat just right and the machine cuts the corner off the paper) you cut the card and then attach the insert paper to the inside of the card with small strips of glue. So in both cases you can see the paper all the way through, but you don't have corners on the Cutaway cards.
Great question and something I will definitely address in an upcoming video. Thank you for asking the question!! Happy card making!! 🩷
@@KimByers Thank you so very much Kim, that has really helped. I am getting more confident the more I use my Cricut and am loving it. Your tutorials are also making me confident to just go and give it a go. Take care and many thanks, Linda x
Can you use the adhesive backed cards with explorer if you use a mat?😊
Hey Whitney! Are you referring to the cutaway cards? If so, yes! I have a video on cutaways: ruclips.net/video/FOp49siRDf8/видео.html They work on all the machines. Thanks so much for crafting with me!
I clicked on your link for the Nativity card. When I go to make it on my Joy, it does not allow me to change the card mat size. What am I doing wrong? I am assuming this is for a 4.25 x 5.5 card?
Hey there Oma! Yes, that is the card size I was using. Hmmm... I'm not sure why it wouldn't allow you to change it. I wish I had a great answer. If anyone else reading this has an idea or has run into this, please share!!
When using pens do you ever get smudge marks or drag marks and how do I prevent that?
Hey Mary! I would check my pen tip. Make sure there are no small fibers on the tip of the pen from your papers. Worst case you'll need to get new pens. They shouldn't leave any drag marks or smudges. Thanks so much for crafting with me and happy card making! 🩷
@@KimByers thank you I hadn’t thought of that. It could be that because it seems some pens work better than others.
@@KimByers also I was watching a video and it was mentioned that they think the Cricut fonts work better than system fonts when writing with pens? Do you find that to be true?
@@glazersworldakamaryschmitt8811 I've not tested them head-to-head, but I've used many many fonts and I don't really find that to be the case. Cricut buys a ton of font licenses. They don't create/design all of them. They do however test all of the ones heavily that they accept. Thanks for crafting with me Mary! 🩷
