    FYI.This is my first time replying to a UA-cam video... anyways, I am sitting in my truck and started crying because I’ve been searching for this type of video for over a year to help me take my business to the next level. All happy tears. This is the best ever. I actually was able to sit and listen the entire video. Soooo many of my questions were answered. You are the best. Thanks so much!!

    I appreciate anyone who takes the time to create a tutorial but this video right here is what a tutorial should look like. I don't care about backgrounds or how you look, I don't want to see how fast you can skim through it .. I don't want distracting music, I love animals but I don't want to say hi to your cat... I just want it explained and shown in the simplest terms possible and THIS is EXACTLY what a tutorial needs to be. You are a wonderful Teacher because you clearly understand what it's like to be the Student so thank you for showing us how to do this. I have paid for courses and ended up more confused than ever so THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

    A teacher at heart for sure. Great vocal speed ( not fast at all) clear and so so helpful. It’s like you just taught a classroom full of students and we all got “A”s. Thank you and may you be prosperous..

    Great video! Just a note, most people that cut with Cricut and silhouette files use svg files to cut with.
