Thank you, clearer than any video I’ve seen. Just bought a cricut maker two weeks ago and only cut the practice page. Will be purchasing this software.
Thank u Marilyn, I have been using Corel Draw for creating rhinestone Templates which is a long process without buying more expensive add-ins. This was EXACTLY what I needed in a more inexpensive software with a built in Rhinestone setting and conversion for file format Cricut!! You did a wonderful Job! THANKS!!!
Thnk you 100 times!!!! I've been searching for month trying to figure oil ut hownto do this myself....very helpful and easier to understand than inkspace for me.
I love the video it was very helpful. Would you be willing to do this design or another like it with more colors and showing us how to cut and place it?........... This video was by far one of the easy to follow. Thanks
For some reason, my replies are not registering. I’ll try again as it’s own post. In order for this to work with Cricut, you must EXPORT the file and save as an SVG. There will be an additional window that pops up and asks “save as compatible to Design Space/Cricut”, make sure this option is checked. I’m not sure if it works with explore, because I am working with a Cricut Air, HOWEVER, if you are able to use Design Space with the explore, it should work the same as it does with the air, it’s about being compatible with Design Space. Hope this helps all the inquiries below. Hopefully this will post!
Millie Love live this technique; it is something that I would love to do. My question for you is, where I can get the list of the materials that I'm going to need? Truly appreciate. TIA
Hello. I really appreciate your videos. I'm starting SCAL 5. I used a font, caved it as png file and converted it to svg file. When converting it to rhinestone, it didn't come out clear. I traced it but I don't know how to make it clear with the rhinestones. It would not allow me to break apart. Thank you for any suggestions you may have.
Hello Millie, I have an explorer air 2 but I just looked up the software that you mentioned and it states that you can no longer purchase for cricut. I read that from the US CUTTER website. How did you go around that?
maria ervin so sorry I didn’t reply. You have to EXPORT the file as an SVG and an additional window should pop up that asks if you want to save it ‘Design Space / Cricut compatible.’ That box should be check marked! --> (if that’s the correct terminology), lol.
If you want to do more than one color of rhinestones in the design - do you have a video to show those steps? Say a bear paw with a different color outline?
hello I followed all your instructions but when I load it up on the design space it comes up as a demo? ididnt purchase it I actually got a free version cuz I wanted to see if it worked and it did. well that be the cause not giving the image
I don't understand why you have to fix the circles for a program that cost money. For me I would be there so long moving circles because in OCD about having it look in place. Could be there for hours fixing the circles
Marcy Moore hi! I’m not quite sure. If you’re able to use Design Space with the explore, you should be able to, especially if you export it as an SVG and make sure to save as ‘compatible with Design Space / Cricut. I would check with the person that sells the program. I purchased mine with svg tools. Hope this helps!
For some reason when I go to move the rhinestone circles to make them look better in the spots I want them to go I’m having an issue with them snapping to certain spots and not wanting to move....how can I turn that feature off so I can move them wherever I want?
Jessica Martinez use the nudging tool. Its on the right side of your panel with little arrows, using that tool instead of your mouse or arrows on your keyboard moves them slightly and does not necessarily snap them into place. 🤓
I have not. Perhaps you can uninstall the program and reinstall it, then restart your computer after installation. If it still doesn't work, I'd contact the company you bought it from. I'm no l ok anger using SCAL. I use TRW'S Wizard program.
I havent tried cutting the magic flock with my maker yet, however the fabric setting worked great on the explore air. If you test magic flock on the maker, start on the fabric setting on a small sample piece and if it doesn't work well, I would increase the pressure. I'm confident it will work great with the maker as Cricut has great machines and an array of settings! However, if I test it in the next few days, I'll let you know! Thank you!
hi, need help i just bought Sure cuts i follow everything as your video but when i upload my image in design space the image upload saying DEMO. Did i miss a step in sure cuts. thank you
Off the subject of this video but do you know if it’s OK to iron on onto a graphic that was printed on iron on transfer paper that goes onto a T-shirt?
Sheila Lyn Sorry for the confusion I meant to say I’m putting an iron-on graphic using print and cut iron on transfer paper then putting another iron-on onto the graphic. can I or will it burn the graphic I just ironed on? I hope that helps to understand what I’m asking.
I understand SCAL software may not work with cricut makers according to a seller on ebay, true? Plus my printer is wireless. Again, seller it wouldn't work, true also?
Hmmm...good question. I have never tried it with my maker. As a matter of fact I'm still using my cricut air, however it's compatible with the Cricut DESIGN SPACE, so I'm not sure why they said it doesn't work with The Maker, when The Maker is strictly a die cut machine. It's purpose is to cut materials as Design Space is for designing and at the end of the day, SCAL IS compatible with Design Space and you NEED Design Space to cut. Lol. I don't know what to say. Doesn't make sense to me. I wouldn't want you to waste money, yet it might be worth the $50 try. Good luck!
@@jean11290 what?!?!?! Lol. Oh wow, you learn something new every day. Thats interesting because Cricut used to advertise and/or sell older SCAL versions to go with Cricut. The template is very simple and similar to cricuts format. But hey if Cricut told you that, run with that. Mark my word, eventually Cricut will probably incorporate rhinestones with their product because as of right now, rhinestone cutting works with Brother Scan n Cut and Silhouette. Don't get me wrong, I LOOOOOVE all my cricut products, however they're behind the 8 ball with the rhinestone capability. But I'm confident they will get there! 🤓 Good luck! Have fun!
Marilyn DIAZ DESIGNS Sorry for the late reply I was having dinner. Anyhow, who knows every time I speak to someone different I get a different answer. I agree that they are behind the ball with respects to rhinestones as this seems to be very popular.
I followed your steps and when it came time to browse images on design space...it told me it was an unsupported file type to choose a different file? I went to properties and it says Type of file svg and opens with Microsoft Edge? Dont know what I did???Please help T.I.A.
I don't think you can pull pictures FROM Design Space and import to SCAL. You can however save files to BE COMPATIBLE FOR Design Space from SCAL. I highly doubt you can take from Design Space and put into SCAL. That I've never tried, but to me, it doesnt sound like it should work that way. Plus Design Space's capabilities are somewhat limited and basic.
@@MarilynDIAZDESIGNS you miss understood my question....I created a rhinestone template in SCAL and followed all your directions to when the design is finished and ready to EXPORT for design space..however when I go into my design space to get the file .....I click on "browse" and go to the image that saved folder SVG....however it keeps telling me its a unsupported file and can't load image. I have gone back to this video and watch over again and I still dont know what I an doing wrong??? Please help! feel free to email me and I will give you my phone number and perhaps you can call me to walk me through it! Thank you so much! koliszjennifer@gmail.com I am in California by the way:]

Great tutorial! Thanks
You probably know this by now, but you can use silhouette business edition program and then cut with a cricut.
I'm so glad I found your video I have wanted to learn to do this with my cricut. I love it and has helped me so much. Thank you
Donna Brinton awesome!! I'm so glad I could help!!
Great video. Easy to follow. Thank you
Awesome video. Thanks for mentioning the nudging tool. That is a life saver.
Awesome tutorial!!!! Thank you soooo much for this!

Hi Marilyn!
I just found your videos. Here’s my question. Which version of Sure Cuts A Lot do I need to purchase?
Thanks!
Please what’s the name of the application you used for the design
If I am making a template and the rhinestone template is missing some rhinestone dots how can I fill them in. Please help

you should do an updated one for the maker!

i cant find how to make a duplicate rhinestone... i think i got the other parts but not how to duplicate. Thanks
the bottom left rhinestones are touching still

austin Picard sorry to hear that. Nothing in life is perfect. Have a great night!
Where can I download this software please?
Hello Millie, Can you still use Sure Cuts for the Cricut Explore?
Marcy Moore hi! I’m not quite sure. If you’re able to use Design Space with the explore, you should be able to, especially if you export it as an SVG and make sure to save as ‘compatible with Design Space / Cricut.

Oh boy hate when it takes forever to upload . how long did that take to upload in ds

everytime I open scal it is just a blank screen, nothing loads, have u encountered this problem before?
I have not. Perhaps you can uninstall the program and reinstall it, then restart your computer after installation. If it still doesn't work, I'd contact the company you bought it from. I'm no l ok anger using SCAL. I use TRW'S Wizard program.

I figure it out, i didn't register sure cuts. ty

cheers
Rhys
Rhys Walker I believe you can use inkscape as well however I have not tried inkscape. Thats free.
Good learning for new people but soo much talking about this and that . not to the point to make the video shorter
can you just get to the tutorial, and save the talking for your talk show, pleaaaaaassssseeeeeee
