    You made this so clear & easy. I have watched so many videos from other creators & it sounds like Charlie Browns mother & teacher was teaching me. I slowed your video down, reminded, paused & you got me through it!!! Thank you!!!

    Girl thank you so much! I have watched other videos and I think I might finally get it. Your instructions were the easiest for me to understand and you showed all as you were doing it. You definitely have a new follower. I just got my Cricut a month ago and it’s been a little frustrating on how to get the colors I want and how to layer. Awesome job chica! Thank you!

    Wow. This was really easy to follow. I am a newbie to this and have watched tons of videos on how to get started, only to get even more confused. Just bought a Cricut Maker which I know nothing about :)))) and have to learn as well. I did purchase the "Cuts A Lot" which also have to learn :)))). Needles to say "overwhelming" is not even close to how I feel LMAO. I will follow you because you were so easy to understand. I might need to download Inkscape just to get an idea. Thank for sharing. Loved how easy it was to understand.

    Thank you so much for the wonderful video. I have looked at several videos trying to explain this process. Your video was the most knowledgeable and easiest to understand. I stumbled a couple of times but was able to work myself through it with your instructions. I honestly feel that I can do this on my own. Is there anyway you could do a cheat sheet with all the steps to go along with this video? Would love to have one on hand. Looking forward to viewing other videos that you have made.

  • @TraciPrest
    @TraciPrest 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Very helpful! Thanks! My only question is; why would you use the black shadow instead of just using the outline? It seems like such a waste of vinyl.

    • @thecraftysitu7263
      @thecraftysitu7263  5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Thank you for watching! You technically would have less waste when using a shadow instead of outline and no weeding. You will also use the shadow as the base of your image so every layer is as one and less layering to do. I have a video on layering that will help.

    after you erase the lines on the bear you go to selector and press3, what do you mean, you press key # 3??
    also confused when you made a copy of the pooh outline after coloring completed, you click on the black outline then you did command z which is the undo key and then you clicked duplicate. ( command z erases yours last action) so how did it know to duplicated the outline??

  • @nellieburnamprichard4398

Does anyone know why?

    I have an iMac running Monterey. I tried to follow this tutorial, but it may be a little outdated at this point. I was following along and am already stuck at where you copy and pasted the image into your document, but then you went to import and said to press 3....it brings up a different menu for me, when I do these steps. So, I am currently stuck at that point. I am new to this software, so I am not even sure what I am looking at. lol

    Can you help me please. Ive just started to learn inkscape. When i open an image say minnie mouse and its in colour i trace bitmap so i have the colour image and the black and white version. I will then go to path and click on break apart on the black and white image and i can see squares with dotted edges, then click off and the whole shape is then a solid black colour. The problem is it wont allow me to click on the areas so i can change to different colours rather than the original. There should be a yellow circle which i click on the solid black image then i choose a colour. Can you please help me before i go insane 😢 thank you

    This is a great tut for those of us not particularly familiar with Inkscape and if I wanted to create a multi layered svg I think this is the route I'll now follow...Thank You. I do wonder about those of us who are using Inkscape to separate layers from an existing colored image by using "trace bitmap". I keep getting repeat elements on multiple colored layers. I can clean this up in Cricut, but if I wanted to sell the svg it would not be what a customer would be paying for. I'm only working with 5 colors, so don't understand why the scans aren't separating perfectly. Any suggestion? THANKS

    I would use outline in the search instead of clip art, you will get clean lines when you search for outline instead of clip art. To me it’s just easier to use outline and you can add color later.
