Hi Kim, here is a tip - I have a knitting needle sizer where there is a hole for the knitting needle to fit to see what size it is. I can use that to see if my pen fits with or without the tape to adapt it.
Wow! what a great idea! Thanks so much for the tip!
Great idea! That is brilliant Kathy. I thought of making my own "sizer" because of the ones that they make for rings in a jewelry store.
Hello, just wanted to thank you for your wonderful videos on ScanNCut. You gave me the push I needed to create my own channel with ScanNCut tutorials. I love how authentic you are (and funny). We should think of something to do together! It could be fun. I believe in collaboration because crafting is fun and should be something that brings people together. Thank you again, dear!
Sorry it took me so long to see this comment. I’m glad I inspired you and yes, I would be interested in collaborating Paula.
Thank you so much for this tutorial and the trick with the universal penholder. This is a lifesaver. I now have to buy more tape.😁
You are so welcome! I have about 5 rolls of Painter's Tape and countless rolls of Washi tape at all times. Thanks for watching Lydia.
You are a great instructor. You make everything so user friendly. Thankyou for all your tutorials! 💕
Thank you so much Leona. I am glad you like my teaching style!
Hi Kimberly. I have use the pen holder and love it, but you had a great tip on cutting the whole into cut stock to measure the size to cover the pens, thanks so much for that tip, Cheers Anna.
Thanks Anna, there is even one more tool that I just purchased and will review after I get it. It holds smaller pens. We need to keep accessorizing :)
Thank you so much! I just bought a Scan n cut SDX 125E. Your videos are so helpful
Thank you so much for referring me to this video after my comment on how helpful I found the universal pen holder one. Your purchasing links are also very helpful - I am ordering the small pen holder and the unibal and pens - no searching to find. Love your videos and loving my machine. I love being a “crafty friend”!
Great Andrea. Glad I could help. This machine can do so many amazing things. Thanks for supporting my channel.
I was able to be up and cutting in minutes when my DX 125e arrived today thanks to your videos!
Awesome Colleen! I'm glad I could help. The more you practice my projects and make them your own, the easier it will be for you.
This was such good information! You answered so many of my questions. Thank you!
I'm so glad I found you. So easy to follow your tutorials. Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks River CIti Creative. I am glad you like this tutorial.
Wow, that’s really cool. I didn’t know you could do all that. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Thanks Carolyn. It gives the ink a better chance to flow.
Thank you for this. I just ordered a universal pen holder and watched this to see how to use it. Your videos are the best. Thanks for sharing.
Glad it was helpful! Happy New Year Carole! I always like to start at the beginning and to leave no MYSTERY in the process. I'm glad you like my teaching style. I appreciate your comment.
I’m learning so much...thank you.
Thanks for this excellent tutorial. I love the tip of creating the pen size template. Tip for you: use double-sided foam tape (do not remove liner) for wrapping pen; since it is padded, you will get a quicker fit, better than using up lots of painters tape.
Thanks for the foam tape trick Cindy. I just got another pen holder based on a viewer recommendation. I will test it and review it soon.
I am very thankful for your tutorials. I always learn so much.
Melissa, thanks for watching. I am glad you are learning.
Hi Kim. I have learned a lot about my scan n cut from you and am using it more because of you.
Thanks Lorna! I'm glad to hear that! Keep on practicing which is how you become more confident.
Thanks Kim....once again a great tutorial
Thanks Mary! I appreciate you watching and your comment.
As always, great explanation. Thank you.
Thanks for watching! I am glad this was helpful Jackie!
Thank You
Lovely Teacher
🪄🖊️✨💨
You are very welcome! I'm glad you found this useful.
I enjoy your learning tutorials
Thank you -you make this so clear!
Glad it was helpful! Here is a follow-up video for you using the Small Barrell Pen Holder. th-cam.com/video/Nv9ZxLzrHg4/w-d-xo.html
Hi Kim! Thanks so much for this - you're my best teacher! You gave me the confidence to start using my machine but I had no idea how much I would fall in love with it! My husband thanks you for the diversion of my attention from nagging him haha
For the record, there was a new pen holder released earlier this year called "SMALL PEN HOLDER". It works the same was as the "Universal Pen Holder". I have a wide range of pens (don't we all?) and have been able to take the tape off every small pen that is widely available on the market except for one. The Small Pen Holder is a real bonus and worth every cent as the pens grip firmer than with washi. It's not only easier but a big time saver as I know my pens will fit without adjustment. Here's what I do and I hope this helps someone out:
I cut a small piece (about 1" ) of scrap of the cards that I use to draw on to slightly larger than the little platform (so I can get it off again) that the pen nib will sit onto (Whisper White, Watercolour etc), wrote their names on the back then washi taped them to the back of the pen setting tool. To use, I select my card, slide it onto the platform and secure with the washi on the under side where the pen setting tool stands so that it doesn't interfere with the mechanics then set my pen. Takes about 30 seconds. Remove pen, put into machine, press start then return the card where I attach them out of the way and we're good to go. I keep each pen setter and holder with cards attached in a small, clearly labelled baggie that is taped with painter's tape onto the side of my machine complete with the labelled card samples. I am going to switch to repositionable glue when the washi dies to try that out next.
Thanks Shiree. I ordered that tool too. It was called a Craft Pen Holder and I will review it after it arrives. I also have an embossing pen comping. I want to emboss some SVG snowflakes so watch for those things. Cah Ching! We can never have enough accessories. I like your card sample idea too. I will give you a shout out once I do the video on the smaller pens. I have soooooo many. You are right. It is endless. I could draw all day. Thanks for your tips and for watching.
@@PaperedChef Funny how they have to give the different names for different countries...Like SDX2200 and SDX225, both Innovis and released at the same time in different countries. Sigh...
@@shireetropix6360 Yes but there are different power cords and voltages so if they didn't give different numbers, a lot of people would be smoking their machines.
Thanks for the amazing tutorial. Loved the svg file in different colours, not sure how you accomplished it. Stay safe
Glad it was helpful Helen! I explained the entire process of how to send one layer at a time to the ScanNCut machine in my latest course: thepaperedchef.com/brother-scanncut-courses
Loved this i am new to this machine so anything helps. i was wondering if there was a way to use all of my other pens got to order the pen holder. Thank you very much
We are so blessed to have you
Awwww, thanks so much. I am glad my tutorials are helpful for you.
This has been so helpful, I love how you use new and retired stamps. You are a Awesome teacher and I can follow along with you. I love coloring and this is super. Now to get the universal pen adaptor now. It is worth it. I am going to see if rubber finger grippers are going to work and I will let you know. Hugs from afar (Utah)
I was wondering about the rubber finger grippers too...did they work?
@@purple_scorp146 I ordered the universal pen holder from Amazon and it is on its way. Took me forever to get it. I will let you know after it gets here
Your amazing teacher and very special person love you Hugs ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much for sharing!!!
You are so welcome!
Thank you so much for this valuable information !!!!
Anytime. I am glad you liked it and hope you will give it a try.
Yeah, thx so much for going into details with this. Hugs. 👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I'm glad you liked this! I always like to start at the very beginning and go into detail.
excellent tutorial Thank you
Congratulations on your subscriber total!!!!!! Great tutorial, as always!!!
Thanks Cheryl! I appreciate that. I will be doing more follow up tutorials as well.
Awesome ideas.
Thanks Linda! I appreciate it.
I have a model CM650WX. Will these techniques work on this machine? I just opened it and it's very overwhelming. Thanks to your excellent instructions, I'm motivated to get started.
I have got the universal pen holder. Test it on my old scan n cut cm600. Oh... guess what? They do work!!! Thank you for sharing. l will try test the glue pen for foiling next and embossing too. 🥰🤗
Wonderful! I am glad you gave it a try. I have used the Universal Pen Holder on three different models and got great results every time.
Smart tip. Thanks.
You are very welcome! I’m glad you are watching Sheri.
You are so Talented hugs
great info!
Thanks Betty!
You’re amazing!!
Thanks so much. I’m glad you liked this tutorial.
Good refresher. Loved it Thanks
Thanks Susan. As a result of this tutorial, I purchased even MORE gadgets. I will be doing a follow up video soon.
@@PaperedChef wonderful!!!
Great tutorial
Thank you! I appreciate you watching! More fun to come.
Thank you!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching Marilyn!
hey bud thanks for the tips
super tips! thank you. Subbed
Thanks for the sub! Welcome to my Channel!
Hi. Do the pens that come with the brother scan n cut work on vinyl? Many thanks for your hints and tips.
Hi 👋 I have a question I have a cm650wx is this machine out dated compared to the sd versions ? Thank you
Kim, would using a bandaid 🩹 work making the pen/marker thicker for the pen since it has some padding in it? Thank you so much for another wonderful video.
I love that idea. Oh yes, that would work too. May leave some sticky gunk when removed but whichever method you use to beef up the markers, that is fine. Whatever works. We just don't want them to slip.
This is probably a very silly question, but can you use the housing for the old foil quill?
This was such an enlightening video!! Thanks you so much!! I do have a question. To do a cut project, does it have to be a svg file? Can we use PNG or JPEG files?
It has to be a cutting file. PNG and JPG images are not made up of lines. They are made up of pixels. You can’t cut them without first turning them into vector graphics which are made up of lines.
I have a 330sdx disney. Can you tell me what I did wrong in cutting? I had some cardstock and cut right thru the stock and mat? I thought it was all automatic in the settings for depth. I ruined my low tack mat. Thank you, Teri
Time so well spent watching your videos. I always learn so much. Before I purchase the Universal pen holder, is there any other one I should consider for the same purpose?
Thanks Bonnie. I like to pack in the tips and tricks. Here is another pen holder you would love. I also have a video on the small barrel pen holder tool. Craft Pen Holder Tool (for smaller pens): amzn.to/3kVXQjd
They don’t seem to sell the universal holder anymore, will the thin one work for most pens?
Very informative. Still researching this machine for purchase. Can you tell me the difference between the SDX125 and the SDX125E? Thanks for sharing all your videos!
Jackie, the E is just the current one they are selling. Latest model. No significant difference but you can get the E which is why it is the one I recommend even though I just have an SDX125. • Brother ScanNCut SDX125E: amzn.to/30fojAU
Hello , would like to say exist smaller and wider hallow universal pen holder, dont kno where to find it , but saw it on a video, so good to Snow
Oh yes. There is a small barrel pen holder too. Here is a tutorial on that. th-cam.com/video/Nv9ZxLzrHg4/w-d-xo.html
25200 subscribers as of now (20210316) you have grown your channel very well and steady.
Where can I find your layers and offset lines lesson. I looked on Udemy but didn't find it. Thanks.
Thanks for the video and great info....
I can see that the Universal Pen Holder I can get from Amazon which I will get BUT where do I get the first pen holder with the smaller pen?
Go to your local Brother dealer.
Amazon sells those too. Here is the link. Pen Holder Tool (in case your machine didn't come with one): amzn.to/34Rx7Pm
Help please. I cannot seem to get my text onto my scanncut machine from the transfer mode from computer to draw. When I push draw button, the writing dissappears. It will work if I use the text tool in the machine itself??
How do you do multiple lines of text??
Can I stamp an image, send it to Workspace, resize it, draw and cut. If you know I would like to see a video on how to do it. Thanks in advance.
You can buy rubber grips to go on pens, I wonder if that would work and be a good option as you could take it on and off easier for different pens. Your explanations are great, very easy to follow, I don’t even have a machine yet 😆 but thinking of getting one
Those may work. The grip needs to be in two locations but it may be the right size. Here is the one I recommend if you get one. Please use my link right before you purchase one. Thanks. amzn.to/3BfdUI2
@@PaperedChef sorry I read your comment quickly but never replied, I had already ordered one from Create and craft, also I am in the UK so your link wouldn’t have worked for me. I’ve got the SDX2240D 😊 every year I see them on tv and think I’d love to have one, I finally just went for it and bought one 😆
I wonder if copic will work a have a few
Hi Kim can you use the freestyle we r memory foil pens in the universal pen holder?
You can use any colouring/writing pen that you can make fit except glue as Brother has a Glue Foil Kit specially designed for glue pens. Having said that, I have not tried the toner pens yet, nor the embossing pens. See my post for more details.
There are a wide variety of pens that I haven't tried. Just try them and if it doesn't work, tape them. Or, as Shiree suggested, there is yet another pen holder for smaller pens. ScanNCut has a Foiling Kit so I don't see why you can't use your foiling pens.
For the universal pen holder and the pens that are too thin, have you tried using the cushion things you can slide on? I think i seen something like that and the person cut a small slit out of the cushion long way and put it on the pen then put the pen in the holder.
Hi Dathan, I was using tape and then I purchased one of the small pen adapters. These hold my small pens without all of the fuss. th-cam.com/video/Nv9ZxLzrHg4/w-d-xo.html
I bought the universal pen holder.Im wondering how a thicker tip would draw
Jenny, the thicker tips of the markers draw like a brush. It all depends on the type of marker you use of course. Sometimes you want the thicker look. Here is another approach I took. th-cam.com/video/3NZsU8Kl7WI/w-d-xo.html
I was told that you can use an American Crafts marker that can draw on vinyl. Do you have any suggestions? I need to draw something on iron on vinyl for a t-shirt design. Thank you
Thanks for watching. I've never tried to draw on Vinyl. I think you may like the printable vinyl. amzn.to/3ak8MTJ
@@PaperedChef thank you! I unfortunately have a laserjet printer and so far all the the ones I found online call for a inkjet
Hello can I ask this question on my scan n cut cm 900 how do I delete svg downloads on canvas work space if you go into delete on the apple computer in canvas work space it takes it of but not out of my projects , or of the screen on my scan n cut keeps coming back on. Hope you can help robyn ver new at this thank you 🙏
Robyn, they hardly take up any space but if you want to delete them, use the X on the top right of each project in the ONLINE version of Canvas Workspace. Then, the project will be gone. You will no longer be able to refer to it.
@@PaperedChef thank you so much ☺️ but will that also delete if off my scream on my scan n cut machine it just keeps coming back sorry if I don’t it explain it better but as I say new at this game other wise I love watching your videos you are so clever and I learnt so much from you so I say thank you for that , robyn h 👳🏻♀️💕
Good Morning Kim, thanks for the Video, it is very helpful. Can you another pentyp (Stampin up) recommend? My second Pentyp is bigger (16mm) and I cannot use. So I search for very good pentyp in addition to the Stampin ups. Please help me. thanks a lot. Best wishes from Austria Europe 🌺
If the pen is BIGGER than 11.4 mm, it will not fit in any holder that I know of. I recommend just drawing in black and then coloring it in. Thanks for watching.
Thanks Dir the fast answer. You are a Great teacher. 🌺
Hi Kim. What is the most current model of the scan n cut?
I guess that would be the overpriced Disney model. SDX230DX. I would think that you would have everything you need with the SDX125E. • Brother ScanNCut SDX125E: amzn.to/30fojAU
@@PaperedChef a local brother dealer had the sdx225 for the same price as the sdx125, so my friend and I both scooped it up
can I use acitate on my scan n cut to make new stincels
You can create stencils on any ScanNCut model. I recommend a Deep Cut Blade when using a CM Model. Brother ScanNCut Deep Cut Blade

Hello I lost this paper so where I can get another one to print please ?
You can purchase cardstock from my Stampin' Up! store. I don't know which exact paper you are referring to. paperedchef.stampinup.net
Can you scan & cut templates for Iris Folding?
I wouldn't do that if the templates available to purchase but take my courses and you can learn to design any templates you want. Sometimes you would save time by using what is already there. Other times, it is better to design from scratch.
@@PaperedChef Ok. Thankyou! Really enjoy the way you teach on line.
Are there any men making tutorials for brother scan n cut that you know of?
Does the autoblade work on the cm350
No, it doesn’t. The CM models don’t have the Autoblade feature.
@@PaperedChef thanks
What is name of your SNC Udemy class? I have 650 and want to learn how to use it
Hi Charmane, I have 11 courses on Udemy. Here is the link to it. At the bottom of the page, you will see the courses on the CM350 which work with any model of CM. You will see the SDX125 course which will work with the SDX models. Then you will see loads of Canvas Workspaces courses. They world with any model. There are preview videos for each course. thepaperedchef.com/brother-scanncut-courses
Help! I want to use a regular sharpie!
Cass, a regular Sharpie will not fit into this particular holder. I tried :) You can use Stampin' Write Markers by Stampin' Up! or use regular thin Sharpies. You can also make the shapes that you will use to color with Sharpies.
@@PaperedChef I am spoiled I had an expression as my first machine and purchased adapters for the short sharpies. I needed a permanent image drawn by the machine. I might have to put on a student cap and figure out how to create a 3d printed adapter.
@@PaperedChef thanks for tour help.
Can you draw a sticker
Or make card stock into a sticker
Yes, you can create stickers out of shapes or designs. You can cut it onto sticker paper. I will link to one of my sticker tutorials.
