Like the no pen hack. I never thought about that. Just figured always had to have the instrument the Maker said. Thank you, Tanner.
You're welcome!🙂
Thanks Tanner! I’ve done it by moving the text on the mat after pressing make it too, but sometimes I miscalculate lol. I like your way better😃
Made my first card the other day and had it print on the insert of the card, glad to see I didn't do it the hard way but happy to see I had done it!. Just learning print and cut now since I got my epson 2760 for my prints
Love this! I have been adding a rectangle, putting my writing on that, then using my gun to tape it in but this is much easier. I will definitely be using this ❤️
Glad you loved it! Thanks for watching!😊
You have changed my life!! I usually struggle to print a piece of paper off with the text on. Then i have to size it up, cut off the excess, glue the paper to the card. It's so stressful. Now i can do it before anything else. Oh my, thank you so much! I love you guys!!
I spent HOURS trying to figure this out on my own going crazy. I tried rearranging the letters on the mat because I couldn’t weld it. I almost gave up, and then I came straight to your videos hoping you had something on this. I don’t know how to thank you enough! This was exactly what I needed. Thank you thank you thank you! You just saved my sanity and possibly throwing my laptop in the garbage 😆
I just watched your video for writing inside of a pre made card and I was having trouble but when I saw you do it I was so happy because I have messed up so much paper trying to do it. Thank you soooo much!
You are so welcome!
Ah, Thank You...I have been trying to figure out for a long long time on how to write inside a card with my Cricut. 👍
You are so welcome!🙂
Woah! This is exactly what I needed. I've been rearranging my text after hitting make it, and even though I measure for placement, sometimes I'm a little off... So, this is BRILLIANT and I'm so excited to try it. Thank you, Tanner!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much! I'm a little intimidated by Design Space. I really appreciate your easy to understand instructions.
You're very welcome!
I’ve been looking for this! Thanks you so much Tanner!
You're always welcome!🙂
Thank you for this hack
You're welcome!
Thanks! Now I have to go try that because getting it to center in the right place has always been a challenge for me!
You can do it!😀
Thank you so much Tanner! Best explanation I’ve seen....
Works perfectly, even for this newbie! Thank you and Merry Christmas!
Happy holidays!
I really needed this video! Thank you!
You're so welcome!
I have been wanting to know how to do this. So easy! Thank you!!!
You're so welcome!🙂
Can you also draw in the envelope so that everything matches up?
I use the Cricut to make chore lists and weekly planners just like this
What a great idea!! 🤩
@@taylordiy1862 I love how they look it’s just some extra beyond printing off word
Great demo! Thanks Tanner & MGL team!
Glad you enjoyed it! You're so welcome, Heather!🙂
Thank you for clearing this up for me. Now I can finish my wedding card. Yahoo!
You are so welcome!
Thanks for this tip! I was tired to gluing in extra sheets with messages. It's so nice to print directly on to the card!
You are so welcome!
Question: At 11:51, design space shifted your card rectangle and text block over and down 1/4" on the mat preview. At 15:23, the written text block is not centered as a result. It's shifted 1/4" over and down too. Shouldn't you stick your card on the mat a 1/4" down and over from the upper left corner so it lines up with the rectangle placement on the mat preview? That would make the text block writing centered on right side of the actual card. Is there a way to make design space use the upper left corner as the origin, instead of shifting the origin 1/4" over and down automatically?
What he said.
Yes, this is absolutely correct. They did not address this in the video and people will not have the writing where it should be due to the 1/4" shifts.
I have the same question!
Would it work using the thin corner waste from a previous project as a template and butting up your card against it on the mat?
@@suebridge5296 that’s a brilliant idea and hack!
Great instructions! Thanks!
Just purchased my first Cricut. Thanks for this video!
I've been trying to figure this out for some time now. Thank you, thank you!!
You're welcome!
Thank you so much. this is the most informative video I have found!!!
I can’t believe I found a video that actually solved my problem!!! Thank you!!! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
So glad! You're welcome!
I'm new to this and terrified but determined. Thank you Tanner!
You are welcome!
Once again - great info as always
Thank you for watching!
Thank you so much I was wondering what to do. Appreciate it so much.
You're welcome!
Wowww...cool. Thank you for sharing this video 🙏👍❤😍
Glad you liked it!😊
OH My Gee, this is genius! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much! Very easy video to follow, I love it!!
You are so welcome!
Best tutorial I have ever seen on You Tube
Thank u for this hack great idea.
No problem! 😊
Thank you so much for sharing 🙂
You're so welcome!
you can go to advance in the text font box hit writing and you can write with it filled. Simple
Great tips thank you
You are so welcome!
Thank you so much! I've always wondered how to do this. My only problem is that when I go to make it, it always asks to load the color of the pen that I don't want to use first. (I made the card outline gray and the text blue. But when I go to make it, it says load the gray pen first and then the blue pen.) Is there a way to change the order like it is in the video?
Thank you! My card looks wonderful! Your instructions were spot on!!🎉
You are so welcome!
Awesome!
super super cool!!! thank you for this! I'm still having issues getting it to line up right on my card tho
You're welcome!
Omg why did you make this a million steps? All I want is how to write simple text on the inside on my Joy card. Arrgg
turn your card inside out, put it in the card mat and write your text.
I literally just put it on the mat backwards, line up my words on the canvas as to where it is lined up on my mat.. lol.
Thank you!!
You're welcome!
Just use the card mat and fold your card so the inside is up. Much easier!
THANKS, TANNER
You're welcome!
Hooray, I need this!
Thank you for watching!
you can select box and text and center vertically
Are the A sizes different where you are? In Europe that would be an A5 card, A2 is about twice as big as a sheet of printer paper.
Love this. Is there anyway to add writing inside that's printed not written?
Thank you so much for this tutorial. It works... sort of. I can't get the rectangle to print second, no matter what colour I do the writing and the rectangle, the rectangle always prints first. I don't know what to do to get it to print second so I can actually not print it at all.
You're welcome!
That's for the information on writing inside card
You're welcome!
Great hack
thank you, thank you, thank you and my hair thanks you as it is no longer being pulled out by the roots 🥰🥰🥰
You are so welcome!
I was just wondering this the other day when I was doing my son's birthday card.
Never stopped to think about turning off the mat to not complete the project. Great hack.
Thanks for watching!
could you do a video on how to fussy cut with cricut maker 3 thanks
❤️❤️❤️ video & YOU!
Thank you so much!😊
I like this hack. I have used another one with an actual shape, without attaching, hit make it, move the text onto shape by changing the mat then hide shape. Just about as easy, just different. So now I have 2 hacks that work, thanks!
Glad you liked it!😀
Is there a way not to have to select the pen action for the rectangle after you have centered your wording were you want it to be? Like just hiding it in the layers panel?
I really appreciate this video as it is exactly what I want to be able to do, however I followed each step from the video stopping video each time as I wanted to do it right but I'm doing this on a Explore 2 and although I have the card the right size when it goes to make it its like the card is not positioned in the right spot on the mat as everything is shifted not in the right place once completed. Did I explain that right?
I have just come across this video as I am having the same problem and have been trying to do some research. I have the Explore Air 2 as well. Have you been able to find a resolution?
My mind is BLOWN!!!!!! Headache GONE!
nice
I was thinking this today. I was saying, why are there no videos where people are personalizing the cards with writing in them. Only finding videos to make them, Thank You for this! Question: How about choosing a script font, and then pen, will that work??
Tanner first off, I love your videos they are very helpful. But here's my problem, I'm trying to print on a card but it keeps drawing a line around the edge. What's up with that. How do I eliminate it? PLEASE help!!!
What measurements would be required to use the cricut joy.. instead for a smaller card? Same process? Without the outline being drawn also.. is that possible?
Put you card in the Joy card mat with the inside side facing out and your design upside down If you then type your message as though it's a card in design space and turn that 180 degrees then write, it should be the right way up on the inside.
Or, forget the rectangle on the canvas, type out the text, and then move the text to the correct position on the mat after pressing "Make It", but before pressing the Cricut C button.
This is what I do, lol.
How do you know how big to make your text and whether it will be centered on your card?
@@Dawn2Dusk23 Use a ruler, held on the card, to determine the size of text box needed. Figure out the placement of the text box after the card is stuck to your mat, with the measurements shown on your mat.
can't you just delete the box after you use it as a measuring tool?
@@s.m.740 Which box are you referring to? The text box? Because, no, that would result in you deleting your text.
Thanks Tanner! I have been working on 2 cards all day & this will help! However, can you tell me why my text is correct when I design it, but when I hit MAKE IT, the text is actually missing part of the letters or words??
I'm new too and spent a whole day trying to get a pen to write on my card. I believe you have to click attach at the bottom right before writing it, I watched another video on this also.
@@mmouse8627 - Yes! Attach!
One if the things I do is: 1. cut a piece of paper half the size of the full card. 2. use the pen to draw on that. 3 paste it into the card.
My question for Tanner. I saw that you placed your completed card on the mat flush with the top edge and the left side edge. When I do that it will always cut scooched over to the right and a little down from the top edge. How did you accommodate for that when you positioned the writing on your card?
It looks like it's a bit off-centre, so I don't think he did accomodate for that. The way to account for it is to just put your paper/card 0.25" from the top left corner (this is the distance that Cricut offsets your projects on the mats).
@@jessvankoll
Thank you. I just wondered.
Ok I just watched this video and when I made my card the text came out on the left side of the card instead of the right side of the card where I had it. What did I do wrong?
Can you use the Cricut Joy insert cards in the Cricut Maker?
Yes
Thank you!
Mine is stuck the other way. It wants me to put the square color pen in first 😬
Hello I have a question about sublimation. I'm just getting into this and my question is. Can you take a dollar tree mug and coat it with the Polycrylic and let it cure for the 28 days then sublimate on it?
28 days? I'm pretty sure that would cure in 24 hours.
I centered my mine in the design app but when it was done mine was almost off the page
❤
My cricut won't align correctly with my card. Any thoughts as to why? I followed all the steps but it wants to write/draw about .5 an inch from the left margin of the mat (top margin seems to be fine)....I had to place my card half an inch in from the side but I'd like to not have to do that lol
It's because the machine does not cut or draw in that first quarter inch. You have to compensate for that by placing your card on the mat a quarter inch to the right of the left margin line or placing the text box a quarter inch further to the right. I'm surprised he did not mention this in the video.
Help!! 😢 How do I cut pre made cards from dollar tree to be perfect with the card size. I don't know how to word that, sorry!
Why was the actual card aligned with the exact corner and side of the mat but the drawing of the card in DS slightly down and to the right of the corner? Doesn’t that throw off the placement of where the machine writes on the actual card?
Yes, he didn't account for that in the video. You should place your card where it is on the screen.
I tried doing all of this but it still wont work! I'm using 5.75 w 8.25 H the card box is way off and writing wont center no matter what I do been working on this trying to get it right for hours! any help? I just cant figure out what I'm doing wrong!
Why didn’t it fill in the letters? I thought that’s why you picked print and cut. And how would you keep it from cutting?
Every time I press attach it changes the box to black pen too and just writing on my darn mat, but I tried
Great idea! How do you attach it to the card? I'm super new to Cricut so I'm still learning. Thanks a bunch!
I tried this....and it worked, kind of.....I'm struggling w/ getting it centered. I've measured and it looks center on the canvas then when I go to make it...it is off to the right a bit. I'm trying to center a first name on the front/middle of a card. Can I 'lock' the position of the card, so I know where to put it on the mat? I'm going through too many cards trying to learn this. Thanks for any help
Put it at the 1" position vertically and horizontally on the physical mat and on the screen.
@@ale347baker I tried this and it is still off by 1/4 of an inch. Too much space on left and not enough on the right.
Oh my goodness I just was wondering this TODAY! I should of just searched the TH-cam channel before I asked my question. You guys are amazing.
Why not remove the rectangle before printing?
I would assume that if you remove the rectangle, the exact position of the text gets lost.
The text would then line up on the left instead of where you want it.
help it sucked up the card and the machine broke
How do you compensate for the fact that Cricut does not start at the absolute corner of the mat? It's always 1/4" to 3/8" away from the corner when it starts a cut or a drawn line. Are you just not concerned about being that precise?
My offset isn’t working?!
Blurry video Icant figure out why most are blurry.
Ok I have walked through your video LITERALLY 4 times and every single time it switches the pen colors and does the one I don't want to use first. WHAT ON EARTH AN I DOING WRONG?????
PRAISE JESUS for this hack!!!!!!! I was pulling my hair out!!!!!!
I thought you were going to show how to write text on the inside of a card. Sorry this didn’t hep me.
That is what the video showed though? What were you looking for?
I don't understand what you mean by no pen. There's a pen writing in there.
No pen for the rectangle. Yes, he used a pen for the text... but no pen for the outline of the card. The rectangle card outline was only to make the Cricut write the text in the exact spot he had it on the canvas. And this hack is BRILLIANT!
You have to pay to use the writing. You can't use you own system fonts. They make it so you have purchase their writing fonts. It is a rip off. They need to change that programing. Cricut is just another money hungry corp.
