Oh my gosh! The gnome calendar is the cutest project ever! I made this for my dear friend who collects gnomes as her great granddaughter is named Naomi! Thank you so very much. You are incredibly generous. ❤
I think this is one of the best projects in this Merry Maker Mingle series. ♥ I've enjoyed watching these tutorials and of course all the things you have created have been great. This is one of the best thought out and organized series I seen. I just wanted to say I appreciate the time and effort you and your staff have put into making the Merry Maker Mingle a joy for the holiday season. I look forward to watching every year. Thanks Jennifer. ♥ BTW, I have one last craft fair scheduled in January and I'm going to make a few of these calendars; I am sure they will be a hit!
I have truly enjoyed watching your videos... You and Greg and the whole team are AMAZING...!! Thank you all for sharing...! Much hugs and love 💜 To all..!
To create the dog stackable calendar using the print then cut feature, follow these steps: Choose photos of your dogs, preferably with varied heights to create a staggered effect. Use a tool like "I love img.com" to remove the background from your photos. Upload your photo, remove the background, and download the new image. Crop and resize the images as needed. There is a video showing how to make it if you are in Advance. jennifermaker.com/stacked-calendar-svg/
It can feel flimsy with 65 lb card stock as that is what we used to make this. You can use a stronger card stock to make this however. jennifermaker.com/stacked-calendar-svg/
For most situations, using the "medium card stock" setting is generally considered better than the "intricate cuts" setting on a Cricut, especially if you're not dealing with extremely detailed designs with very small cuts; the medium setting offers a good balance between clean cuts and preventing potential tearing on delicate areas that can occur with the more aggressive "intricate cuts" setting. That being said, it is always good to do a test cut first to see what works best for the card stock you are using.
I have tried several times and am unable to perform the Pen and Basic Cut step to complete the project. I have followed the instructions in Design space, but again, the options are not available. Any suggestions?
Make sure to check if your design is properly selected, ensure the correct tool is chosen in the "Operation" dropdown, verify your machine is set to the right material type, and try restarting Design Space or your machine; if the issue persists, contact Cricut customer support for further assistance.
A good old one to try . Say this fast I am not a pheasant plucker , just a pheasant pluckers son , I am only plucking pheasant s till the pheasant plucker comes . Hehe
? With multiple mat and same designs how to do you prevent it from going to next mat project if you need to have another pass to cut the design out my average pass is 4 with heavy cardstock and 3 pass for medium cardstock i have Cricut maker ?
I rephrased the question .the project has scored lines and cut section on the the same piece of paper .what happens after scored and cut out on first mat check my cut and hit button I don't unload the mat I check screen on design space Area and says apply scored tool which is on next mat do cancel the mat for scored part ? But how?
@kathymoorman940 Do you mean you want to cut again but not score again? I would just remove the scoring stylus and let it cut again. It will go through the motions without scoring.
They sell it in craft stores and online. If you have a hard time locating it poster board or something similar could be used for the stand. jennifermaker.com/stacked-calendar-svg/
I noticed that when you are working with cardstock you say that place it on the mat right side up, or when you remove it from the mat you say stack the pieces face up/down. I’m not all that proficient with cardstock so how can I tell which side of the cardstock is the top side? They all seem to look the same to me.
I am missing something I uploaded the file for gnome 2025, when I highlight January to select pen the color goes away I not able to change back to the blue. What am I doing wrong? I'm very new using design space, Jennifer instructions are the fill the calendar dates using the grid, so her instructions are confusing to me. Please help!

How did you do the dog one?
To create the dog stackable calendar using the print then cut feature, follow these steps:

great love it
I will try to make it..I am beginner with cricut and all the things are magic for me 🤣🤣
It is magic! 😉
I want to make this one
I would like to use the score stand, how do I set it up to cut and score?
If you need to learn how to score here is a tutorial. jennifermaker.com/cricut-scoring-tools-tips/
How can I modify the calendars in french ?
Thank you for all your wonderful projects ✌️
You can use slice to modify them. jennifermaker.com/cricut-weld-vs-attach/
What happens if it’s flimsy when you try and put all the months together? I used 65lb cardstock. Thanks!
It can feel flimsy with 65 lb card stock as that is what we used to make this. You can use a stronger card stock to make this however. jennifermaker.com/stacked-calendar-svg/
Have you decided that using the medium cardstock setting is better than the intricate cuts setting?
For most situations, using the "medium card stock" setting is generally considered better than the "intricate cuts" setting on a Cricut, especially if you're not dealing with extremely detailed designs with very small cuts; the medium setting offers a good balance between clean cuts and preventing potential tearing on delicate areas that can occur with the more aggressive "intricate cuts" setting. That being said, it is always good to do a test cut first to see what works best for the card stock you are using.
Thanks Jennifer for this tutorial but I do have a question can you use something heavier than kraft board for the stand?
Yes of course!
Hi, love this, but can't find the Kraft Board anywhere. Any ideas on a substitution? Thanks. ❤
You can use poster board or any type of sturdy card stock. Even doubling the card stock up will make it stronger.
@ Thank you so much! ❤️

I missed a step, will draw but not cut out. Help!
A good old one to try . Say this fast
I am not a pheasant plucker , just a pheasant pluckers son , I am only plucking pheasant s till the pheasant plucker comes . Hehe

Do Not unload the mat and just hit the start button again on your machine.
@SacredSpaceCrafts I rephrased the question

How can I change it from the gnomes to something else
You can create your own or choose from a variety of other SVGs. We also have the flowers. jennifermaker.com/stacked-calendar-svg/
Where is the best place to purchase the Craft Board and does it only come in a couple colors or many?
They sell it in craft stores and online. If you have a hard time locating it poster board or something similar could be used for the stand. jennifermaker.com/stacked-calendar-svg/
I noticed that when you are working with cardstock you say that place it on the mat right side up, or when you remove it from the mat you say stack the pieces face up/down. I’m not all that proficient with cardstock so how can I tell which side of the cardstock is the top side? They all seem to look the same to me.
Some are the same, some are textured.
@@SacredSpaceCrafts Ok just to clarify, if one side is textured is that the side that goes face up on the mat?
I am missing something I uploaded the file for gnome 2025, when I highlight January to select pen the color goes away I not able to change back to the blue. What am I doing wrong? I'm very new using design space, Jennifer instructions are the fill the calendar dates using the grid, so her instructions are confusing to me. Please help!
