Carly Keller I just got my Cricut Maker and I’m in love 🥰 more than I might like to admit but whoa....🤗 Thanks again
Excellent instruction. Thanks
You are welcome!
This is so cool
Thank you so much!!
Thank you for sharing! I love it 💙🧡💜
Thank you! Cheers!
Hi Carly, thanks for sharing! Do you do anything to the acrylic before placing the vinyl on? Like clean it with something specific to help the vinyl stick better/last longer?
Hi Chris! Thanks for watching! Its best to not use cleaners before applying vinyl. I like using a duster (like the Swiffer heavy duty kind) to help get any dust particles out of the way
I just purchased the vinyl and acrylic pieces from your description! Question what size is the font? Thank you so much for the awesome idea. Much easier than handwriting
Yay! They are all a tad different so I like using the placeholder and eyeballing it. The decals are about 1x2.5" :)
Hi Carly, this is a great video. What setting do you use when you cut your vinyl? I cannot seem to get my vinyl to cut deep enough so that when I weed, the negative vinyl comes right off, it's always a bit of a battle for me. My Cricut is also brand new. What setting do you use for the vinyl number wise and do you keep it on the default, more or less setting?
Thanks in advance, much appreciated.
Hi Carol! I cut most of my vinyl on the default Premium Outdoor Vinyl setting. Hope that helps!
i love this one :)
Thanks Zaina! The bright color was fun :)
Hi! Do you think this method would work for 5x7 acrylic invitations also?
Just wondering is this matte or glossy vinyl? I’m trying to decide which would look better on acrylic for name plates like yours as well as an acrylic invitation! Please help!❤️❤️
I like using matte since it looks more natural and nicer for professional photos :)
Hi…. Carly, thank you for sharing this video, love the color that u choose…. Oh btw, did you put any coating for the back side after the last layer? Thank you … oh I am really new about this… can I use CRICUT JOY for to make this or I need to buy the explorer ?
Hi Stenny, you should be able to use the Cricut Joy for smaller vinyl decals like this! You can use polycrylic if you want to seal the paint
Soooo pretty!!! If they were to get wet or something would the paint come off? Can it scratch off? Would it be ok to use like a clear sealant? Sorry for all of the questions lol
Thank you so much!! You can seal these using a polycrylic. The one I like to use is linked in the supplies list and here is a video with me using it on a painted acrylic sign :) th-cam.com/video/7PR_XLR8YBI/w-d-xo.html
I am NEW to my cricut machine I have a Cricut Explore Air 2 Watching this video, several times. I tried to make something like this. What is the BLUE paper after you remove the top white paper you cut on? I'm so confused
Love this video. Do you think that it will work for wedding invitations?
I think you would want to print invites versus using vinyl. Too many details and letters to weed 🙈
I’ve never used oracal vinyl. Is this your favorite to use for permanent vinyl projects? I find cricut brand very hard to work with!
Oh yeah Cricut vinyl is so hard to work with! I like alot of off brand stuff. My favs are linked in the video description!
Hi sista.. 1st time watched ur video..no words to express.. thanks for sharing with us..
Wht app using for fonts?
Thank you! Font is in the video description :)
Hi Carly, what varnish do you use on to keep the vinyl inlace on the front? also is it a sealant for the vinyl?
Hi the vinyl is outdoor and does not need to be sealed! You can seal the paint if you'd like. The finish I like is in the supplies list :)
So after I painted the hexagons with acrylic paint, I let them dry about 3 days, then stacked them back in the box. Opened the box a couple days later to put on the vinyl and the hexagons were all stuck together. When I took them apart some of the paint would be on the back of the hexagon it was on top of. Do you know a way to prevent this from happening? Is this what the poly acrylic seal is for?
Oh no! I've shipped these with no issue but had them individually wrapped in tissue. Maybe your paint felt dry, but wasn't totally cured? You'd still need to wait for your paint to cure to add the polycrylic.
This is great, would you recommend sealing the paint?
The protective finish I like to use on acrylics is listed in the video description :)
@@CarlyKeller thank you I completely overlooked it
You're welcome :) Cheers!
Love it . Do you use acrylic painting
Thanks! Yes, I do!
Hi! So the Oracle was the backing right? What's the pressure set at? Also did you use a deep cut blade?
Hi! The oracal is the vinyl + backing. Premium outdoor vinyl setting and regular blade!
great video. what's the link to the video to add and attach the font. Also What can be used to remove acrylic paint if needed?
Thank you! Here is the link: th-cam.com/video/Glfs3OY34AI/w-d-xo.html
I'm not removing paint from acrylics..its so time consuming, the stripper is costly and practically ruins the acrylic 😣
Hey! Great video! How can I get that font on my Cricut app?
Hi Ally! Thank you! Here is an article with links on downloading Creative Fabrica fonts to Windows, Mac, iPhone/iPad and Android: help.creativefabrica.com/hc/en-us/articles/360029397172-How-do-I-use-a-font-
Great video! I was wondering if the paint you used is removable. I want to do a similar project but be able to take all the paint off. Any idea what type paint I should use?
Thank you Michelle! You can remove paint with something like Krud Kutter but its alot of work and will not be crystal clear.
Is there a way to fix vinyl if one of the dots are missing on the I?
How long do you let the paint dry before applying the next coat?
I'm in Colorado where it is very dry so mine do not take long at all! App. 10 min.
hi! would you say the best way then for 180 pieces would be make the shape and then write out all names and size too?
Hi Katie! For that many names I'd copy+paste them into a program like Inkspace, using the union function so your letters will be connected, getting to skip the welding process in Cricut. Save that as a vector image/SVG. You'll then be able to upload that image to Cricut Design Space and will need to slice each name out, but I still think that will be faster than welding each letter by hand. I hope that makes sense! My next large order I'll make a tutorial :)
Carly Keller how would I seperate each name when I type them out? Will I be able to resize? Thanks! What font would you suggest?
Do these need to be sealed bu anything soo the paint doesn’t chip or get scratched?
You can seal them if you want! I linked the polycrylic I use on painted acrylics in the supplies list :)
Hi!
How do you package these and agate slices so they don't get damaged?
I use tissue paper but if you are in humid climates may need to use wax paper so the paint doesnt stick
I’m thinking of doing this but for ornaments :) Should I seal the paint with anything?
Same question, should we seal the paint?
I have the same question lol
@@biancabolanos9738 me too!!
Great idea! The protective finish I like to use on acrylics is listed in the video description 🎄
HI all! I just made a ornament tutorial: th-cam.com/video/i5IFYI8uZMU/w-d-xo.html
That is so cool. I love it. I’d like to do pastel colors... can i use acrylic paint? What do u suggest?
Thank you! Pastel colors would be awesome on these. I use acrylic and one of my current favorites is Artists Loft level 1!
Hi Carly whats that thing you use to smooth out the lettering onto the hexagon to press on the transfer tape?
Hey Karen! Its linked in the video description supplies list. Its a free tool I get with one of the transfer tapes I use! :)
@@CarlyKeller oh thank you i see it now! It's called a "Felt Edge Squeegee" apparently :)
@@CarlyKeller Also great eyebrows girl
Hi Carly, I'm unable to find the paint you've used here, does any kind of paint work for this project? Or what sort of paint should I look for?
Look for acrylic paint!
Do you let the paint dry in between settings? Xxx
Yes I do 🙂
What do you use to seal the paint onto the acrylic? Mine scratches off
The sealant I like to use is in the video description 🤗
Where did you get the windows behind you in the beginning of video?! Thanks!
Its been a few years but I believe e-bay!
Hello! What kind of printer You are using?
Do they have a hole to make into an ornament?
These dont but I've seen them before!
Do u know if these can be engraved on the maker?
Yes some acrylic can be engraved but afraid it would take forever to engrave each piece, especially with filled letters. I'd recommend frosted vinyl for the same etched look though :)
@@CarlyKeller thanks your awesome!
Can this serve as a coaster as well?
I'm sure but it would not absorb any liquid
Why didn't you use the Maker etcher on these nameplates?
It would take forever for the Maker to etch on each plus guests wouldn't be able to see from afar :)
How long do you let them dry in between layers
I'm in CO where it is super dry so only a few minutes
hi how long do i have to wait roughly for the paint to dry
Hi I'm in Colorado so takes very little time between coats
@@CarlyKeller how long roughly xx
How thick can a cricut maker can engrave an acrylic?
I've actually never tried so I'm not sure!
How do we remove paint from the acrylic?
I usually don't since its so much work and comes out foggy anyway. I'll add a protective finish and reuse pieces like these :)
Hello! How did you seal them?
also how long did it take you to dry each coat?
Hi Jacqueline! I didn't seal these but added my favorite to the video description in case you wanted to :)
I'm in Colorado where it is super dry so each coat just took a few minutes!
which font do you use?
Its in the video description :)
Is this glossy vinyl?
I believe this was matte
@@CarlyKeller may I know your setting? Cant cut my vinyl matte
Hi. Did you use permanent vinyl or removable ones?
Hello pls what is the name of the software for designing the nanes and the machine for printing
The machine is a Cricut (exact model linked in description) and I use Cricut Design Space to design most projects!
Hi sis, may i know what is the name for the printer that you are using?
Hey! The cutting machine is linked in the description, a Cricut Maker. My regular printer is a Canon Pixma...not sure if it showed in this video though :)
@@CarlyKeller owh ok😊 thank you so much 🤗
Without cricut ?
You could print on paper then trace with a paint pen!
