I have been working on my PC for many years and this is the first time EVER I have clicked 'subscribe' to any TH-cam channel! Mel has an amazing ability to teach in a way that viewers are kept 'engrossed' throughout. I have found gold and diamonds! Thank you Mel!
Mel you are the sweetest lady! I have been guilty of hesitating until I watched your tutorials; which I very much appreciate. Thank you for presenting this topic.
My first ScanNCut will be delivered tomorrow!! My husband and I are both sick (don’t know with what). I caught this first program and enjoyed every minute of it. I’ve subscribed and because I didn’t watch you live, it’s January 2024, I can watch further episodes! Don’t worry, the second I get my delivery and feel up to playing, I will do all my homework! Thank you for doing this!💜
Just found you, so getting a late start! Yes, mine is out of box- that’s it! Thank you. I’m going to watch all the way through then go to my shop and play again. I’ll be back. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this, i have only just discovered your channel. It will be saved to my favourites. I can't wait to get started with my cut and scan. had it in the box two years and only started to use it two months ago. your channel is amazing, basic at instructions and clear. Thanks a million.
Got my SDX2250D yesterday. It is out the box and it’s sitting on my kitchen island glaring at me. It’s terrifying. Going to watch all your videos. Got a Cricut Maker which I’ve got my head round but this is a whole new ballgame. Here I go …….
You are a fantastic tutor, and I love your sense of humour/perspective on things. I've had my machine for several years and have used it, but I needed fresh inspiration and you are great! Thank you so much! I love your structured, ordered approach. It makes so much sense and is so logical.
I have just found your channel and I’m so glad! Finally got my SNC out of the box 😊, set it up and cut out my first simple shape yesterday! I was so proud of myself 🤣 I got my machine as a bonus when I bought my Brother Stellaire embroidery machine! My goal is to be able to cut out fabric for appliqué. Your class is so informative and easy to understand! I’m definitely a new subscriber and follower! Thank you!
Thank you, thank you thank you! I bought my machine just before Covid lockdown started. Tried to used it once for appliqués embroidery. Totally failed. So glad to find these classes to learn my machine😊
Just got my machine off a friend for a very good price as she only used it a couple of times so played a little tonite 😊 think I'm going to like it a lot ❤ so watching these classes to learn as much as I can
Thank you sooo much, im from new brunsick canada, and i just got a sdx, i just loVE you !! I will be doing my homework and watching all your classes on rellay, thank you so much for being so kind to give us your time I REALLU APRECIATE IT , ZND YOU ARE A WONDERFUL TEATCHER ;)
So happy I found you! Learning so much that I desperately need. Thank you for sharing your time and talent, Now I'm inspired to get the Scan N Cut out of that box (after almost 2 years... can't believe it myself) and use it for a special project. Going to look up all your tutorials and spend a day with a huge coffee pot full of fresh coffee, maybe a cookie, and binge watch your tutorials. Can you tell I'm excited? Thank you so much for sharing.❤
I have had my SDX 2200D for nearly 3 years now and have only used it to cut stamped images and Vinyl. This class is what I needed from the start to learn the basics. I have only found this class in November 2023, so I have a few of your classes to wade through. Even my husband is interested in learning about the Scan and Cut. Thank you. Regards Liz
Thank you Mel. Having watched a couple of your programmes I have just bought a Scan and Cut on E-Bay from someone who had never got it out the box. So I have just watched this again and taken notes. I am now off to play with my new toy. Thank you again. Play time this afternoon and then month 2 to watch again.
This is a fantastic series for people like hubby and me. Thank you for making it. We will be following along as soon as we can begin. I think it will really help us to get to know and properly use the SDX125e I ordered today. We're old (73 and 80) and are trying to start a little channel here just for fun and to keep us busy and learning. We have a Cricut Air sitting on a shelf that we've tried using a few times, but it always lands back on that shelf because we have to first go to the Cricut online place to do anything... and it won't print and cut a full sheet, so there's a lot of wasted cardstock.
I won several die cutting machines and have many dies. The manual machines which are all I have for the dies, hurt my hands and getting the right sandwich is frustrating, making it a chore and half to mass produce. I'm so looking forward to this....I have many stamps that I don"t have dies for, so this will be great- also cutting out digital images!!! Love the shaped card!!! THANK YOU!
My new SDX 325 should be here within a day or two - just saw your youtubes video thru a recommendation on FB - so will give it a go once my machine arrives - can't wait to learn thru your video - I PROMISE TO GET ON BOARD EACH MONTH - thank you
Brilliant teachings Mel. I ignored my machine for years because I can’t get the blade settings right. Love love love your tips! Thank you for your generosity.
Thank you so much Mel. I am one video in, and I am such a big fan! You are an amazing teacher, and you are such a joy to listen to. Almost feels as though we are having a conversation.
Mel, thank you for Lesson One. I was beginning to think I had an expensive paper weight.... I worked with it until I could cut a card, and two layers without going back to watch the video.(I will not reveal how many times it took! But I finally got it....). I learned how to stack the pieces, make the mat cutting surface smaller to ignore two of the pieces. You are brilliant! I learned so much, I am looking forward to lesson 2. Again, Thank you!
Just ordered my new SDX325F. I love my CM350 and have learned quite a bit of settings. Thank you so much for your passion in sharing. I'm so glad I found your channel to help me get oriented even before my new baby arrives. Thank you Mel!!
Glad to help! Dont forget o send us any pictures of your makes! you can email them to mel@highlightcrafts.com or studio@highlightcrafts.com and we might even show them in one of our classes!
Thank you so much for doing this series! I want to buy a scan n cut but I'm totally confused on which one to buy. Is there a video that explains the differences in the machines sold in the US?
Hi, I just came across your videos for the first time. Very informative. This has encouraged me to take my scan n cut out of the box and try it. Thank you!
🎶 "Let's start at the very beginning, a very good place to start... 🎶 I couldn't help but sing that song as I was watching this fantastic, informative, clearly explained instructional video. I've been toying with which brand and model of cutting machine to get and Brother Scan N Cut always rises to the top of my list. Thanks to your detailed explanation I'm going to take the plunge! TYVM from a Yorkshire lass in Southern California.
Hi Mel, I just found your channel. Today is 4 September 2023 and I have had my SNC (SDX330D) for over 2 years maybe 3. I have taken it out of the box and put it on one of my craft tables, set up my accounts, got it registered and on Canvas that’s it. So your channel is going to be a game changer for me and my SNC. I’m in the States, in southern Louisiana. Do y’all send to the States? I have watched a few of your videos this evening and they are SO INFORMATIVE!!!! I’m a card maker and I prefer to make 5”x7” or larger.
Hi! Highlight Crafts Does send products to the states! but if you have any questions, feel free to email us with any questions - info@highlightcrafts.com
Mel - Thank you so much for your generosity in sharing your love of the craft. I have made it a personal mission to learn more about my scan n cut cm350 this year, and so I greatly appreciate this series. And, I know starting at the basics may be a bit frustrating, but there are plenty of folks that are just beginners. Keep up the great work - you are very appreciated. Blessings to you.
Thanks for watching! were glad you're giving it a go as its such a great machine once you've gotten over the fear of getting it out of the box and making that first cut!
@@wilmawagner9631 I like mine a lot and am always looking for more ways to use it in paper crafting. This is a great video series - so much to learn here!!
I was debating about which cutting machine to buy. Your video sealed it--a new ScanNCut is on its way to me! I've watched a lot of videos, and this was the first one that explained the basics so clearly.
My husband has purchased me 325 machine for my Christmas present but can’t open it until Christmas, I’m watching so I will be able to use it when I get it out of the box thank you this is wonderful
I can't tell you how much I appreciate your tutorial. They are simple and easy to understand, and I so appreciate that. Brother's info page is about as clear to understand as Sanskrit - never mind that their web site is a nightmare to use. It takes every click forever just to load. My SNC is in a box in the closet but with your help de-mystifying this bad boy I'm going to open that box and make something really nice. 😁
Thank you so much for going through things step by step and pointing out “quirks” helps immensely. Understanding how the machine “thinks” is critical. While my focus is fabrics knowing the other possibilities exponentially increases the sweat I’ve opportunities.
Great tutorial, thank you. Just discovered your site. I have the SDX 330D and have tinkered with it a little, but your tutorials are wonderful. Thank you from USA Southern California.
Oh Mel, thanks. Just purchased the SDX2240D with trepidation, but you have allayed all my fears. Need to see all of your Craft Along sessions. Thanks again.
Hi Mel from 🇦🇺 Thanks for an awesome tutorial, so easy to follow and informative. Perfect for a beginner. I just bought an SDX1000 yesterday after much procrastinating. I was put off by someone saying it was the hardest to use out of the 3 brands. They were wrong. So glad i got a Brother and looking forward to using it today and watching more of your tutorials. ❤
I thought I'd better start learning , I've got three scan and cuts still in there boxes, don't shout at me ,they where gifts , and scare the hell out of me, so I've just found this channel and I'm watching from month one, my sdx is now out the box, it's growling at me, it's been locked up for a year ( or two) .i don't think it likes me much , I hope it don't bite lol.🤣🤣
Me, I have it out of the box and that was it, I thought once I out of it I would be getting into it but 2 years later, it hasn't happened. Looking forward to watching this video. Thank you!
Damn that’s a lotta information , helpful though .. I’ve only been aware of these cutting machines for a week or two . I’m pretty well decided to buy a brother as I’m only interested in material cutting .
Thank you so much Mel. Bought my first machine SDX 2240 D this weekend and learnt a lot from this tutorial. I know there are 6 more available and I look forward to watching them all.
Thank you so much for the great information. Only just found your channel. Will watch each week until I catch up. Have the SDX 1250 and love it so far. I have been cutting a lot of stamped imagines but want to know lots more. 💜💜
Great orientation and training session. So true, many leave devices in boxes because of being intimidated by technology. This session is nice, at a pace can go through while working hands on with own device. Thx!!
Thankyou so much Mel, I have an SX900 which I do use but have learnt so much watching this, I didnt even know about updating the machine, and I changing depth/cut amount, I look forward to getting the most from my Scan n cut
My daughter has been thinking of purchasing a one, but my daughter is intellectually disabled & I’m not sure how much she’ll use it. When she got into scrapbooking she got a sizzix die-cutter, punches & stamps etc but she hasn’t used any of these for many years. I think if she did purchase one, these monthly classes would certainly help her, actually I’d be the one watching the videos, then I’d show her 😊
Waiting for my new machine to get to me. I have been a Silhouette Cameo user since it came out now their customer service has gone down hill so thought I would try this one with all the great upgrades. Thanks for the videos s I plan on getting mine out of the box and using it as soon as I inbox it.
I am from USA and have been checking online for the Pinflair Stencil Glue. Everywhere I look, it is unavailable. When it’s time to restock my mat,if it’s still not available, can you suggest an alternative product? Thanks
Thank you so much for these videos! I just got my scan and cut. I bought it primarily to use to cut out my fabrics but I’d love to learn what else I can do on it. I’m in the US and I wonder would any scrapbooking glue work to retack the mat? Or does the pinflaire work a certain way? It’s not available in the US unfortunately.
Hi Mel if i cut stencils out of w-ray sheets can i also use the CM blade because i buttle to cut curly stuff i want to make stencils for for my longarm quilting that is way i bought the Scunncut SDX.
You are the reason i bought my machine. That being said i cut one project, had a prob that kept me away for a oeriod of time, and when i got back to it it is hung up on two messages on the screen and i dont know what to do. I dont know where to get service. Can you help
Hi Judy! Brother have an amazing help line if there is a technical or software issue with the machine, if not you could email you issue to info@highlightcrafts.com and we can pass it on to Mel!
depending on how big the shape is you could cut up the fabric to place pieces on the mat in different places, then duplicate the shape can cut it out of each piece. We would not recommend stacking layers on top of each other as this could damage the machine or the blade.
we are using an up to date SDX1200 with the latest software updates for our SDX tutorials, but you should be able to folow along with any of the SDX range machines :)

Yes! it's terrifying and you need an engineering degree to operate it 🤣 ... not really, once you're 'into' it
I have just come across this, I've had an SDX900 paperweight on my table for over a year. 😅 So happy now.

Thanks for an awesome tutorial, so easy to follow and informative. Perfect for a beginner.
I just bought an SDX1000 yesterday after much procrastinating. I was put off by someone saying it was the hardest to use out of the 3 brands.
They were wrong.
So glad i got a Brother and looking forward to using it today and watching more of your tutorials. ❤

Start basic and cut a shape! once youve made that first cut theres no going back! and if you get really stuck were always here to help!
You are so easy to listen. Nicely done presentation. Thank you
Carolyn from Seattle Washington USA
You are so welcome!
Thank you for the tutorial. Starting at the beginning is just what I needed.
I asked the previous question as I haven't bought mine yet but so far, from all areas I've investigated, Brother comes out on top
Thank you really helpful. Learned a lot
Me, I have it out of the box and that was it, I thought once I out of it I would be getting into it but 2 years later, it hasn't happened. Looking forward to watching this video. Thank you!
The best tutorial i have seen ❤
So needed this tutorial…thank you Mel.
I love this class, I have struggled using my scan and cut, now that I have the very very basics I feel more comfortable, cant wait for other classes
2 machines, well used from the day i got them. They have NEVER been home to their boxes. and I still have them.
Damn that’s a lotta information , helpful though .. I’ve only been aware of these cutting machines for a week or two . I’m pretty well decided to buy a brother as I’m only interested in material cutting .
Your video on the scan n cut is the best I have seen. You really know how to teach. Thank you.
You are so welcome
WOW !!
Thank you so much Mel. Bought my first machine SDX 2240 D this weekend and learnt a lot from this tutorial. I know there are 6 more available and I look forward to watching them all.
Thank you! Please change the password for your router. Never keep the same one as what's on the router.
Thank you so much for the great information. Only just found your channel. Will watch each week until I catch up. Have the SDX 1250 and love it so far. I have been cutting a lot of stamped imagines but want to know lots more. 💜💜
Love this!
Thank you so much.
Great orientation and training session. So true, many leave devices in boxes because of being intimidated by technology. This session is nice, at a pace can go through while working hands on with own device. Thx!!
Thank you so much for this Mel I’m beginning to learn loads and feeling less scared of using it
Thankyou so much Mel, I have an SX900 which I do use but have learnt so much watching this, I didnt even know about updating the machine, and I changing depth/cut amount, I look forward to getting the most from my Scan n cut
You're very welcome!
Just bought the 2250sdx looking forward to your tutorials. Never used a scan n cut before
I have had my SDX125 for about 3 months. I have played a bit but I learned MORE in this lesson than I thought was possible! Will be back for lesson 2!
Do you use your scan and cut for cutting material?
@@ellenfuller4393 I got the fabricmat and blade but haven’t tried it yet I am learning the scanning part for the cards I make!
Thank you, I look for month 2. You are making me braver to actually use the machine. It is out of the box, but I have not used it.
My daughter has been thinking of purchasing a one, but my daughter is intellectually disabled & I’m not sure how much she’ll use it. When she got into scrapbooking she got a sizzix die-cutter, punches & stamps etc but she hasn’t used any of these for many years.

Thank you for the very detailed instructions. Your explanations are very thorough.
You are welcome!
Thankyou Mel, that was brilliant I do use my scan n cut sdx12, I still learnt lots of information about the machine from you x
You’re welcome 😊
I’m so excited! I have just ordered my new baby! Been umming and arhing for yonks!!
Waiting for my new machine to get to me. I have been a Silhouette Cameo user since it came out now their customer service has gone down hill so thought I would try this one with all the great upgrades. Thanks for the videos s I plan on getting mine out of the box and using it as soon as I inbox it.

Thank you so much for these videos! I just got my scan and cut. I bought it primarily to use to cut out my fabrics but I’d love to learn what else I can do on it.
I’m in the US and I wonder would any scrapbooking glue work to retack the mat? Or does the pinflaire work a certain way? It’s not available in the US unfortunately.
Me. Nope.
Hahaha its been on my shelf since last August
Hi Mel if i cut stencils out of w-ray sheets can i also use the CM blade because i buttle to cut curly stuff i want to make stencils for for my longarm quilting that is way i bought the Scunncut SDX.
I got a 325 when I bought my Brother Stellaire XJ1. The scan and cut is out of the box, but that’s as far as I got. I have no idea what to do with it.
Make sure to stick with the Monthly classes and youll be scanning and cutting in no time!
You are the reason i bought my machine. That being said i cut one project, had a prob that kept me away for a oeriod of time, and when i got back to it it is hung up on two messages on the screen and i dont know what to do. I dont know where to get service. Can you help
Hi Judy! Brother have an amazing help line if there is a technical or software issue with the machine, if not you could email you issue to info@highlightcrafts.com and we can pass it on to Mel!
Hi what's the difference in the SDX1200 and the SDX2250D great videos btw
I think one of the differences is that you get the Disney patterns withe the 'D' machines, but have to purchase them with other models.
Hi I'm waiting for my sdx 1200 to be delivered its coming today I can't wait my question is how do I become a Robin member?
What was the glue you restock the mats with?
Its Called Pinflair Stencil Glue and you can find it here - highlightcrafts.com/shop/gluesadhesives/pinflair-stencil-glue/
I just bought a dX230DI if I need 4 of a shape can I tape 4 layers of fabric down as long as it is no more than 3mm thick and it will cut it?
depending on how big the shape is you could cut up the fabric to place pieces on the mat in different places, then duplicate the shape can cut it out of each piece. We would not recommend stacking layers on top of each other as this could damage the machine or the blade.
Is there a manual that you can mark the sections relevant for your next project?
I have everything on auto and it cut through my mat!!! Very first test and it ruined my mat. Not sure what the problem is
How do I register . Excellent demonstration
I'm hoping you can advise me. I want to mainly cut applicay or quilting projects. I'm looking at SDX125e or SDX85m can you help me?
Mell I have a sdx900 is this course for this as well
These SDX Classes are for any of the SDX Machines so you should be able to follow along just fine!
Is this the latest (SDX1200 ) version?
we are using an up to date SDX1200 with the latest software updates for our SDX tutorials, but you should be able to folow along with any of the SDX range machines :)
Im guilty of it still in the box🙀
