UPDATED: Make a FULL Page of Stickers on Cricut 🤯 | No Tabloid Paper Needed
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 лип 2024
- In my previous I showed you how a method that lets me get 60% more of my sticker paper (Only 10% wasted rather than 25%!) with minimal effort and NO vector software required, BUT you needed to print a Jig using a large format printer...well no more! Now you can fill and ENTIRE 8.5" x 11" piece of paper and all you need is a large sheet of paper! (or a couple of pieces of printer paper taped together)

I have to admit, I thought you'd lost me with that whole jig thing, until you placed the printed sheet in. Holy moly, what an idea! LOL Mind blown, you know? Not this whole thing makes sense, and I thank you for figuring it all out. I'm just going to wander off muttering to myself like the old lady that I am. :D
She goes over the process in a lot more detail in her other video on this topic, but altered the process slightly for folks who can’t print larger than 8.5x11. Definitely check out her other video 😄
@@CoreyKarwowski Thanks, I'll watch that one as well. I've made my jig, I'm going to leave it on a spare mat so I won't have to worry about where to place anything in the future. :D
This is so cool! Thank you for sharing!
You’re my new leader. Thank you
This is so smart!! I can't believe it never dawned on me sooner, but you did such a great job of explaining that now I just keep thinking WELL DUH. Thank you so much for sharing!
You are totally awesome! 🙌🏼
Wow, so smart! Thank you!
thank you so much
That is great, thanks. I watched your earlier video but can’t print the tabloid size. As for full sheet printing, I think it’s a MAC thing. My canon prints borderless and it works amazing with my windows computer, but I haven’t been able to make it work with my Mac. Perfect timing, I’ve got a few old mats I was about to throw out, so I think I’ll set up a permanent jig on one of them. Thanks again.
This is Soooo good. Thank you for sharing. I went through your other video first. It helped me a lot, because you carefully explained your jig method using a dummy sticker sheet. Great job. Then you come along with this easier method! Boom! So genius.
Mind officially blown!!😲😲😲
This is brilliant! Thanks! I just got a cricut and was thinking there had to be a way to use the full sheet!
I didn't know anything about Pro Create but saw I didn't need to in order to use this hack. I just wish I'd seen it sooner, wasted so much sticker paper and so many tears of frustration!😫 Thanks for this!
I know! Based on comments some people are like “pssh, I already knew that” but most are really surprised and didn’t know you could do this!😀
This is great, thank you so much. I hate wasting paper so this will be a game changer for me 😊
I agree 100%. Especially when it's sticker paper!!!
I live in the UK, so our paper sizes are A3, A4 and A5, but will have a play and see if I can trick my Explore Air 2, Maker 3 & Joy Xtra so I can do the same, as like you, hate wasting anything, but this really is a big help. Thank You.
I would think it would work the same you would just need to cut out an A sized paper hole in the jig.
Your tutorial is awesome. I normally do this with prints that I screenprint. But found it difficult to get the prints from my printer to the right size due to not having borderless printing. So basically scale 100%, amazing!! My jig is normally made with masking tape!
My printer also does not scale to 100%, been trying to figure out how to do a proper lineup.
That was amazing! You are a genius!! Off to make a mat into a permanent dedicated jig mat!!
Glad it was helpful! I considered making a mat using permanent vinyl, but was afraid I couldn’t peel off the center. Let me know how that works!
@LabcraftStudio ugh I just cut up my old mats but I'll find another to use. Thank you for the video.
@@LabcraftStudio Finally had a chance to make a jig!! And using your suggestions and video! It worked!! So excited not to have a lot of waste now!!
That’s awesome!!!
Life saver❤❤ I've been cutting by hand because my cricut always gived me a harx time whenever i make stickers. Not to mention the waste of paper😢
You’re welcome! I personally still think the original method I have with the jig that includes the print then cut margins does a little better with lining up but I hope this works for you as well! Cricket kind of keeps adjusting margins here and there, and I think that might be part of the problem.
Do you have an instruction sheet/ directions on how to do this?
Yes! This! I’m trying to diy plant labels with plant name and QR code. I may need variable numbers of each label, say 5 cucumber and 20 tomato, 2 marigolds, etc.Can you think of a way to do that? I know I could do merge from data (not in cricut); I’m just unsure of how to get the variable numbers without wasting a whole sheet.
Have you tried a3 print and cut? Can you do a video on it?
I loved the idea in your other video. I’m super grateful that you came back with this altered hack for us standard printer folks 😊
You’re welcome. I’m glad I found an ever better work around.
Love it! Insta follow 💖💖 I love making stickers my overall goal is to be a print shop. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 I use to be a makeup artist now I get to “paint” my colors and designs on my iPad 😍🦋
I always import as print and cut but on the canvas I convert to basic cut
The one flaw with this method is if your printer doesn't print exactly as it looks on the screen (any misalignment) it won't cut quite right. Been trying to find a way to print and cut double sided playing cards and its a challenge trying to line up two sheets of paper (I use self adhesive photo paper back to back, with cardstock between the sheets) and if my prints are shifted slightly the cricut doesn't quite cut as accurate as i would like. Which is to be expected. Thanks for the video, it is helping me to think of different ways to accomplish my goal.
Yeah, as mentioned in the video getting EXACT precision with the cricut is difficult. You might try creating the designs with a little bit of a bleed, but then cutting with the exact sizes you need. It’s an extra step, but it might work.
I have been attempting the same thing for the last year. You have to decide which side is the most important to look the best. Adding bleed to the other card face helps with imperfections in alignment.
Yeah, I thought about that as well. Might go back to just printing and cutting 4 cards at a time, until I can figure out how to ensure my prints are better oriented.
@@joecosier22you can try and align the paper properly, some printers have alignment features, also making sure your printer input section is adjusted properly. For double sided it would be good to have a duplex function but I understand not all printers have this function!
If you aren't using procreate, how do you add registration marks?
How about a4 size?
I would think it would work the same way. I don’t have access to A4 paper but I imagine the technique would translate.
Thank you for sharing. I had heard of the jig type style but you made this seem so simple with your instruction. Do you do this in beta mode or not in Cricut Design Space?
I do have beta mode enabled, but I don’t think it makes a difference in this case.
@@LabcraftStudio Thank you 😊
Is it possible for you to do the same tutorial for the silhouette machine? I have not found any tutorials on it
I don't have a silhouette. I'm sorry. :(
My printer does allow scale to 100%, and won't allow borderless for 8.5x11. Yarg, but otherwise, thanks for the video.
Is there any way to bring over the designs I've made and saved in design space to some other app to print it? Thanks.
Unfortunately I don’t know how to save them out.
How does the registration marks get on the sheet? ie: I would use Canva to design a full sheet.
I made a video explaining this actually. Here's the link to that:

What is that feed support? I could really use something like that for my maker 3. I have done something similar trying to cut out playing cards for some games to keep each page of card images in the same alignment.
It’s a 3-D print I found on Thingverse! Apparently, we are not the only ones who wanted additional feed support for our Cricut. 😊
I found one on amazon that looks just like it for $9.
QUESTION - could you use vinyl for the jig? (I'm a cricut newb, and inherited a bunch of vinyl that I don't really plan to use.)
You certainly could. I personally use the 11 x 17“ hack from my previous video and just periodically cut a new jig out of watercolor paper when my mat gets old or needs cleaned. But vinyl would probably work with this method as well. The only downside would be if you stick vinyl to the mat, you probably aren’t going to get it back up.
@@LabcraftStudio I agree that it might be stuck permanently. But I have extra mats...so there's that!
I got The jig opened up the page full of stickers won't open said they were made in some weird app
The file is designed to be opened in Procreate on the iPad. It only opens in that program.
i dont understand. what paper do you use for the jig? just black what size paper?
The black paper is just your basic 12x12 scrapbook paper. But you could put 2 sheets of printer paper on the mat. You only need to over an area of about 10x12 for this to work.
@@LabcraftStudio i see. thanks for the reply. im gonna try this
A lot of people just use blue painters tape and mark off a section on the mat roughly the size of a sheet of paper then use the cricut to cut out the outline, you then leave the tape on as a jig, might want 2 use another mat that is worn and you don't use as much, that way you can leave the tape on for future use.
how to do this for A4 size paper. Kindly help because it requires a mat of 30 by 60
I would think it would work the same way only you would cut a rectangle the size of an A4 sheet of paper. I’m not familiar with printers in other countries but I would think it would be a similar process.
I'm guessing this couldn't work for kiss cut stickers?
I’m sure it would. The difference between a dye cut, and a kiss cut sticker is how much pressure the blade uses and whether not it goes all the way through. You would either need to use a paper cutter to trim the sticker sheets, or perhaps attach a couple of rectangles behind the cut pattern to cut the sheets out. I plan to make a video about that in the future.
What is a jig?
A jig is a device that holds a piece of work and guides the tools operating on it. I sometimes use one to hold things in place for my laser cutter. That’s where I got the idea for this hack.
😅what if you don't have procreate and you use canvas?
Canva? I imagine there’s a way to adjust the shape of an image but I haven’t played around with it enough to know how to do that.
This is awesome, but i need to point out that the jig isn't free, if you dont donate you cant add to card or download
It is. You can just put in zero dollars and be able to download.
