      I'm new to cricut and glad I found your Channel! I have an explore air 2, and wanted to ask if you could make this same exact video but with the new version of canvas? I updated the app and mine looks so diff from the video.

      When you see three dots together, that’s called a kebab menu, and if you ever use Google, there is the panel that is nine squares (or circles depending on device) by nine squares. We call that the waffle. Either technology folks take the concept of menu very literally, or they are perpetually hungry.

    I'm fairly new to using the Cricut Maker and I've been petrified of using the print and cut option. You made it so easy to understand and thank you for talking about the printer calibration! I was able to calibrate my new printer, print and cut my first project all thanks to you!

I got a Cricut Joy for Christmas last year and am still not even good at that! 🙄 I can just do basic wood signs. Sometimes it takes my friend and I hours to piece together bigger patterns lol!

    Alex, this was an excellent video. I am a Cameo user but my sister just got a brand new Cricut Explorer Air 2. We have been using it for the last few days and find it very easy to use. That being said, we have not used the print and cut option yet. I showed my sister how to use it with my Cameo but knew it would be different with the Cricut. After watching your video, I am going to forward this video to her as this video was so easy to follow, a great presentation, well edited, and I think she will really enjoy it. Thank you again.

    Omg you are great at explaining this process!!! I’ve been pulling my hair out with print and cut!!!! I finally gave up and started cutting everything out by hand. Let me tell you what a pain in the butt!!! Every time I tried l print and cut it was a hit or miss as to whether it was going to cut around the image or each individual line. So frustrating but after watching this video I’m ready to go try it out! I’ll be back if I still can’t figure it out lol

    Pro Tip: You can add a rectangle and size it 6.75 X 9.25 and place the stickers inside and size them inside of that rectangle to keep from going back and forth. Then once placed remove rectangle and attach all of the stickers. Wah-lah! Xoxo

    My boyfriend bought me the cricut explore air 2 printer. Haven't gotten it yet but can't wait to use it up lol. It was suppose to be Christmas present but I already figured he'd get it cause he was asking me about it plus the sticker on the bundle I received said cricut 🤣

    Thank you so much for this video. I'm using my cricut machine because it seems like it is easier to do deep cuts with their blade. However I do prefer the silhouette machine.

    Great video, newbie to design space and this was very helpful. It was very clear and easy to follow. You explained a lot of info I needed to know about how Cricut cuts around the offset, but can you further explain what you meant by it cutting a bunch of little pieces if you don't flatten into shape. I thought that flattening with the offset prevents printing a bunch of pieces and makes the flower image and the offset one solid piece. My understanding is that if you flatten with an offset or flatten with a shape around it, the outcome is the same (for print and cut) can you explain. Also, can you show an example an image with the bleed setting on and off, and lastly why can laserjet printers not be used with Cricut? Thanks again, this was super informative!💡

    • @DIYAlex
      @DIYAlex  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Correct, if you don’t use the flatten function, then the cricut will cut around every word/ shape. That’s what I meant about a bunch of pieces. The bleed just adds a small border around your shape in the same colors as the shape itself. You can use laser printers if the products are laser compatible, but most are not. I hope that helps!

    Hi Alex,
    Thank you got teaching about the calibration process. You added the only person that I’ve heard mention it. Again, thank you.
    Can I print a color custom shape dinner menu on a printer that’s not connected to my CRICUT, then cut it out with my CRICUT?

    • @DIYAlex
      @DIYAlex  ปีที่แล้ว

      Calibration is super helpful for getting accurate cuts! In order for your cricut to cut it, it has to be put through DS so it gets registration marks. That being said, if your menu is straight lines, you can print it bigger without design space and then cut it out using a paper trimmer!

    Page size did change. Some other things have changed too. This was a great tutorial. Unfortunately it won't let you arrange the print then cut items how you want and it moves them around. And now mine is stuck in cyberspace between my laptop and the printer. It says its preparing to print, but it is taking forever. update: It finally worked. Thanks!!

    • @DIYAlex
      @DIYAlex  ปีที่แล้ว

      I’m so glad you got it! Design Space makes changes from time to time, but you should still be able to edit your mat and move things around where you want them!

    Fantastic video!! Thank you so much! I’m just getting into sticker making with my cricut explore air 2 and have been so confused.
    2 questions: I’ve tried the Avery brand clear sticker paper but my cricut doesn’t recognize it. Any tricks to make it cut? And 2- do you know if the Neato brand sticker paper is acid free? Can’t seem to find that on their website, but I’d like to use them in my scrapbooking.
