      I was wondering also. I think the glitter would blunt the blade. It certainly does so with scissors.

    Great video, thank you! I have a Cricuit 3 and I am still learning - I have been trying to cut a pattern on/in EVA foam board without cutting all the way through. Due to my disability, it is easier for me to have the foam board prepared with a cut pattern. Then I would cut/manipulate my paper strips to fit in the slits in the pattern that I have created on the EVA foam board from my cricuit. I hope this makes sense. Any advice or guidance would be much appreciated. Thank you for your time

    Good day Is it possible to cut different depths with you cricut maker. I love to work with craft foam. But sometimes you just want to make a line and don't want to cut threw the foam. I just want to line for the face not cut it out. Can someone help me with it please

    • @thecraftaholicstudio
      @thecraftaholicstudio Рік тому

      Yeah, it is. You can adjust the pressure before cutting, as I mention at the end of the video or, if you still need to make fine adjustments, click on the icon that has three horizontal lines in the top left corner, then "manage custom materials", choose "EVA foam" and click on "edit" to adjust it. Once you see the list, you can also scroll down (all the way to the end) and find the button "add new material" to create a custom setting. 😊

    • @thecraftaholicstudio
      @thecraftaholicstudio 2 роки тому

      Hey, Melanie. Thanks for your comment. 🌸 The settings will depend on the thickness of the paper as well as the vinyl that you're using. When I do this technique, I also have to test the settings first, because it may vary, so before cutting the actual project, I cut a small and simple shape out of it to make sure the settings are correct. To customize settings, please watch another short video that I've got on here: ua-cam.com/users/shorts9Yx9PU0Ne34 Hope it helps. 😊

      Yeah, my Maker neither. I’ve never used this function with the deep point blade, but I think it is just possible when having the fine point blade loaded.

      @@alicer-w878 Hey, Alice. I'm so sorry about the late reply, I didn't see the notification of your 2nd comment popped up. Since this is a very specific function that you want to cut EVA foam with, I would contact Cricut to check if that would be possible somehow.
