I watch a lot of videos to gather the information I'm looking for because nobody seems to explain anything fully. This video is wonderful, thank you so much! Your very thorough and your voice is nice to listen to, it kept my attention the entire video! (That's rare) thank you for taking time to share your knowledge it really does mean so much to so many.
Thank you so much Bre! I'm so glad this was helpful for you! Knowing that I can help just one person makes all the work I put into my videos worth it! :)
The video was very comprehensive and I appreciated how patient you were with the process of making a card. A lot of people just zip through directions assuming everyone is on the same page regarding knowledge. You did not...GREAT job and video.
Thanks so much Sarah! I’m so glad you found it helpful! I’m not much of a paper crafter by nature, so I try to take you through all the steps that I found confusing when I was starting out. ☺️
@@DIYAlex I was wondering if possibly you could provide us with a tutorial on how to be able to have the Cricut transfer text into the card? Thank you!
That’s a great idea Sarah! I’ll add that to my list. This video will get you started with writing with your Cricut until then! th-cam.com/video/mnmq4DfTSe4/w-d-xo.html
Great tutorial! I watched another one of yours and liked you (you don't rattle on & on like a lot do) I subscribed after watching my first one of yours. Thank you for getting right down to teaching. You are thorough on explaining each step and not skipping on assuming we all know what's going on. I have really enjoyed the two tutorials of yours and I look forward to watching and learning more. THANKS
Thank you Sydney! I’m so glad they were helpful! I create tutorials like the kind I like to watch. Thorough, but down to business! Welcome to my crafty Fam 💕
Thank you! You can still make the card, you just won’t have a score line to fold when assembling the card. You can get the scoring stylus (that’s what the Air 2 uses) on Amazon if you want to take a look!
Ok so I'll try to make this as short as possible.. i have a Samsung galaxy s22 ultra (unfortunatelyI'm aware howlittle i can do with an android in ds. Wish I'd done more researchbut here we are). My tablet doesn't do as much in ds as my phone can. I have an old laptop but that's out of the question bc it's too old. I need a new one, I'm not able to work anymore so i don't have any money to get a new one or to repair the screen on the newer one that ds actually worked in. I've had my explore air 2 little over a year now. Just started making rolled flowers trying to do vases but i only have a cutting tool. Should have a quilling tool and stylus in a couple days but i need help with cards today, obvs. So i hope you can help. Please! 😂 how can we add more than 1 card on the canvas without doing the hole copy paste thing? I can usually copy/ paste very easily but not in ds. If i can only do one instead at a time that's fine tooi just need to learn to do one😂. Also if we download from creative fab or design bundles etc how do i get the card to ds? I'm having such a hard time learning to do other things than i did when learning just vinyl😢
You can increase the number of project copies! Or just use the duplicate function instead of copy and paste. Here's a beginner video on uploading files into Design Space: th-cam.com/video/tvfar6G1Wqc/w-d-xo.html
I was wondering if you have made a video or could make one touching base on how to search for free commercial use svg’s. I am literally terrified to print anything because I don’t know how to tell if they actually own the rights to the svg’s or not. Even if it says commercial. I just don’t want to break the law. And, get in trouble all for selling crafts. Looking for a video that clarifies how to tell and protect myself. Love your videos btw. Your the person I have found that speaks clear, gets to the point and isn’t painful to watch. Thanks for making them :)
Great question! And thank you for the kind words! I’m glad you enjoy them ☺️ It’s hard to give an answer for every platform, but you have a great point. You have a reason to be doubtful if it’s Disney, official sports teams (NFL, NBA, etc), and in situations like that. Otherwise you just have to read the license agreement carefully. I personally do most of my shopping from sites like creative fabrica or design bundles since I know the entire site has a clear commercial use license. But that’s all I really know to advise you on that as a general topic! I hope it helps!
So each part of the card you cut and do you click what item it is and change the settings for that part? Been doing a lot of research and thinking about getting a Circuit.
I love the idea of using double sided tape since glue and I have regular disagreements. Was that material too thick for the scoring stylus? or could you do it with either the stylus or the wheel?
@@DIYAlex I'll have to try double sided tape more often. In case people want to make this using the Cricut Maker but don't have the scoring wheel, the Maker can use the scoring stylus. It defaults to the scoring wheel and you need to adjust the tool. I bought the scoring stylus first because it is less expensive and I wanted to see if I would use it then I bought the scoring wheel.

Love this video! You explain every single step in depth. I know this is an older video but love it! Going to make my first card 🎉
Yay! I’m so glad it was helpful for you! Good luck on your first card!
Awesome Alex.. I am going to make a similar one for my mother in law 💕
What a great video! Thank u so much for making the instructions clear and easy ❤

Great video Alex! Your card is very pretty.
Thank you!! 💕
Thank you so much for all the info . !! 🙂
You’re welcome!
This is a great tutorial!!
I never get notifications when you are doing videos. I miss them all the time.
Oh no! If you click the bell and select “all notifications” that should help! 😊
Great tutorial on card making
Thank you!
Thank you!
You are welcome!!
Your video is great, but you talked a little too fast on some parts, but very helpful.
I have an Explore Air 2 and no scoring tool. Can I still make this card? This is such a great video. So many useful tips for newbies.
Thank you! You can still make the card, you just won’t have a score line to fold when assembling the card. You can get the scoring stylus (that’s what the Air 2 uses) on Amazon if you want to take a look!

You're welcome!
Can you show how to personalize the back of your greeting card?

@@DIYAlex Yes, Thank you!
So each part of the card you cut and do you click what item it is and change the settings for that part? Been doing a lot of research and thinking about getting a Circuit.
Yes, you have to manually change the setting in between cutting the mats if the settings need to be different.
I love the idea of using double sided tape since glue and I have regular disagreements.
Was that material too thick for the scoring stylus? or could you do it with either the stylus or the wheel?
I love double sided tape! The scoring stylus would work great as well! The Maker is only compatible with the wheel, but they do the same thing. ☺️
@@DIYAlex I'll have to try double sided tape more often. In case people want to make this using the Cricut Maker but don't have the scoring wheel, the Maker can use the scoring stylus. It defaults to the scoring wheel and you need to adjust the tool. I bought the scoring stylus first because it is less expensive and I wanted to see if I would use it then I bought the scoring wheel.
Oh that’s right! I forgot about that. Good catch!
My score blade doesn’t work in my machine is there a way to change it to the score stylus?
Yes! On the final screen choose edit in the tools section and change it to the stylus.
Is it hard to write on the back of my greetings to personalize like “by Lorrie”
No, you just need to set it up on your canvas and position your card correctly.
so you used Cricut maker for this project?
Yes, but the Explore machines would also make this project easily.
What kind of card stock do you recommend?
You can use Judy about anything, but I normally use 65lb
Where do I find the instructions that you were talking about?
You can find it under projects in Cricut Design Space.
i can't see the same projects :(
Here is the link to the project: design.cricut.com/landing/project-detail/5756418aee508efa43323887
Wish you were a little slower. Too fast
