Thank you so much! This is the best beginner tutorial hands down. Now I know what to do with all the cardstock I got because it was on sale two years ago. lol

Thank you for this!! Not only is this a great beginner tutorial, but it also shows how much you can make without buying expensive Cricut cards and inserts! 🤗

Would you not be able to just do it as a square thats sized vs doubling size and scoring?

[@arnessad16]

Do you know how to cut it without saving the middle part of the A'a and O's without saving the pieces?

[@robira1313]

Very good video! Why don't I see a "score line" when I click on "shapes"? Not seeing it.

[@DebsJoyfulDesigns]

Thanks for watching! I wonder if it is maybe the version you are using? Another way to do it would be to use a regular line, and then you should be able at the top where it says line type to change it from cut to score. I hope that helps!

[@jeangrandy8672]

How do you figure out what size envelope to make for the card and where do you find it in Design Space?

[@DebsJoyfulDesigns]

I’ve personally not had great luck with trying to make envelopes, so I usually buy the envelopes! You just want to make sure the envelope is slightly larger than your final card dimensions.

[@jeangrandy8672]

@@DebsJoyfulDesigns thank you!

[@moviekid2011]

Is that card stock paper or colored paper

[@DebsJoyfulDesigns]

It is cardstock!

[@kerrinpantano4885]

Can you tell me what sizes you made the card and the insert?

[@DebsJoyfulDesigns]

Hey there! Yes, the card is 8.5 inches by 5.5 inches and the insert is 4 inches by 5.25 inches. Thanks for watching!

[@tashannahhorne4841]

Where did you get your card stock?

[@DebsJoyfulDesigns]

This particular card stock I think I got at Joann Fabrics. Michaels and Hobby Lobby usually have a great selection also!

[@koalafan1576]

The music overpowers the vocals.

[@lovnbnhome]

Music in background is too loud.

[@suewooton796]

Some are a bit quick and you can't see what they are clicking on needs to be slower and show you what they are clicking on sorry its not that easy

[@homedad3324]

I am so interested in the content but the background music was so annoying to me. I had to stop watching because of it.

[@dawnyates323]

Thanks for your video…BUT….you’ve left ALOT out. You call this a “beginners” video…and say things such as “you can use any font you want.” Errr….No you can’t. Fonts aren't free, nor have we been directed to where we might be able to find free fonts. You jumped from shapes… And then to text without explaining what you’re doing. Some people (like myself) have had this machine for 4 days. You’re going to do “beginner videos“ please slow down and be more detailed. Thanks

Thanks for the feedback!
