Addressing Wedding Envelopes Using a Cricut | Wedding DIY
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 бер 2022
- In this video I go through step by step on how to address wedding invitations/envelopes using a Cricut. Our process starts out in Canva.com where we create our PNGs of all of our needed addresses. From there we upload them into Cricut Design Space. I show you how to create a template to get almost perfect placement of addresses every time. Once we have everything ready to be made in Cricut Design Space, we set up our Cricut mat and prep our machine. Then everything is ready and we let our machine do the rest of the work and repeat that process as many times as we need!

Another person getting married just here to say THANK YOU. Printed around 300 invitation envelopes and this video was our BIBLE in doing this, thank you so much again
How long did it take to do the 300? Hours? Thanks!
I've literally never commented on a UA-cam video before but I have to to tell you THANK YOU!! I've been searching high and low for an easy way to do this to draw on multiple envelopes for my wedding invitations. This tutorial is truly a lifesaver. So amazing, thank you!!!
omg. from the canva recommendation to the simple tip of moving the little while wheels to the side so my ink doesn't smear... SO grateful you made this video. thank you!!
Just wanted to share some tips for anyone trying this now! I tried both on Canva and Cricut Design space and I found it easier to just do it on Design Space personally. Same method with the square box template so you can see where you need to place it, but I inserted my own text rather than uploading the file from Canva. If you choose a font that is designed for Writing within design space it will write properly rather than just the outline! If you are getting lots of smudges/lines and spots of ink try lifting the pen up slightly so it isn't as far down and that solved the problem for me. Make sure you hide the square box template or it will start cutting after! Good luck :-) thanks for the video it was very helpful.
Thanks for this! Was there fonts that you would recommend for writing? If you used a handwritten like font.
Filter fonts to “writing”
OMG you saved me! after trying for hours to figure out a faster way to address so many envelopes this is by far the best, easiest way. THANK YOU THANK YOU
You are the only person who has been able to help me do this. Thank you soooo much!!!
This just saved my life!! Who knew being a DIY bride was so much work?! LOL. Thanks for this
Thanks so much for this tutorial! This has made putting together invites so much quicker! Definitely some trial and error at first, but they come out so nicely!
Thank you for such a clear tutorial. It was super easy to follow your instructions.
This was very easy to follow and had me making mine in minutes. Thank you
If uploading from canva to design space is there any way to have the circut “write” the text rather than outline? Or can that only be done if you start in circut design space? Thank you!
The gripper is a smart idea!!! I have the same white pens
what gripper do you use?
Thank you! Beautiful. I have been looking for something like this!
Engaged here! Thank you so much!
I can’t thank you enough for this video! ❤
Thank you. This was so helpful; I didn't realize I could keep the square on there when I "make it" then just delete it.
Once I realized I could, it helped with so many projects!!
Thank you! Did you have to make a png on canva for every address?
Thanks for this great video!! I followed it exactly except when my text prints with Cricut, it had the two lines outlining each word. Do you know how to fix this?
Unfortunately, that is an issue with Cricuts drawing feature. You have to use thin fonts otherwise it will not be filled in because it is only tracing the outlines of the text. If you have unwanted empty text, the only fix is to manually fill in every letter and word.
@@nikkitube26 I am using a super thin font and still having this issue. Any suggestions?
@@itshaleylew Choose the "writing" option and it will only show you writing fonts that won't look weird.
So how did you get the lines to go from double when you select draw to single? Mine will draw the outline but not the inside.
Easy to follow along but once I uploaded into design space and changed from cut to pen, it shows the fonts as outlines?? I used the same fonts as in the video. Can anyone help me out?
How long did it take to do one mat of envelopes? Just the cricut writing part? My boss wants me to do a project for him and needs and idea on how long it would take to address 200. Thanks!
Do you have any suggestions for what fonts to use on canva? (or another font from a website or cricut access) It seems every time I pick a font from them and take it to the cricut I lose the writing when it comes to making it.
Thanks so much for this video! Do you have to use the cricut maker or can you do this on the express air too?
I cant get the font to download. I love this font :(
My gel pen doesn't fit into my Cricut. I'm just borrowing from a friend to do these invites, so I'm not particularly skilled with it, but is it that different models do not fit normal gel pens? I am using an Explore Air 2
Would this method work on the invitations themselves? I love embossed invites but I think the pen method would be cheaper if you think it would work
What fonts did you use. Thanks
Can you do this on a joy?
Thanks for the video. What font do you use
Can someone please help me. I have tried doing this through Canva and cricut design space and the font grayscale keeps coming out as an outline and not filling in. How do I correct this?
Hi thank you for this video! When I go to create all my address will bunch up. I tried to hit attach and it will continue to bunch. How can I fix this? thank you
Would you be able to do all of this with just a Cricut joy?? Thank you!
Hi, thank you so much for this video! Maybe I missed the explanation but can I ask why you changed the size before downloading? Does that help with the resolution?
If the resolution is too low, Cricut design space doesn’t write the text in its entirety. I’ve seen where it would only write half the letter when resolution is low
Will this work with fonts that aren’t actually writing fonts on cricut design space?
This didn’t work for me 😩. I used the same fonts, but it didn’t come out the same way.
Does it matter which font is used in Canva? Will this eliminate selecting the writing font in Cricut so that it will fill in the space?
How do I make the Cricut stop cutting? I move the outline to the project 1 right before I'm about to start it and I hide it but it still cuts after it's done writing with the pen.
I am having the same problem!
@@bethanydeleon5612 try deleting the "envelope behind the writing, make sure the return address and recipient address are attached to each other. Also, sometimes it is just helpful to update the cricut software, then delete it, then reinstall it. It gets glitchy- but make sure everything is saved! I realize your post was a long time ago, but maybe someone current is having the same problem.
Thanks for this video! My envelopes smear every time… I’m using gelly roll metallic pens and I moved the grippers to the side. Do you have any ideas on how to prevent this? I think I’m going to have to settle for my regular cricut pens.
You may have too slick of envelopes where the ink just sits on top of the paper and doesn’t sink into the paper to dry
Can you add the link to the little accessory attachment you used for the pen?
How do yo do this!? I CAAAANT!! I'm using the same font as you and it won't let me do it, when I put it in cricut I get the text with a border, without filling, how did you do it?
Cricut won’t fill it in. You are probably making your text too big. When you stretch the text it will look outlined and not filled in. But the Cricut is technically drawing the outlines of the text but if the outlines are close together, it looks filled in.
is there a way for it to fill in the thickness of the letters, and not just an outline?
Unfortunately no, Cricuts drawing feature only draws outlines. I wish they would update it to fill in outlines
Did you have problems mailing the black envelopes? I keep reading mixed messages.
I did mine but mine drew the outline of the card :( help!!
I am assuming this would work somewhat similar with the Silhouette Cameo? my MOH practically smacked me upside the head when i said i wanted to hand address all of the envelopes because i wanted metallic gold. She was like you dummy
Someone help ! How do I make sure my font is not double lined. I used the same fonts in her tutorial and it isn’t working 😢
The only way to fix this is to make your text smaller in size
When I go to "create" my pens are on the second page and my cut is on the first page. I cant see them both at the same time either. Im having a hard time lining it up
Op okay I got the "move object" all set. But is it okay that the pen is on bottom and the guide is on top? It wasn't that way when I was in the customize page. only when I go to "Print/make it"
Did you have to manually fill your names? I’m using the same font as you but it’s only out lining
I made the font small enough where I didn’t have to fill it in manually
@@nikkitube26 what size font did you use in canva? Thanks!!! Love these so much :)
I have a really thin cursive font and it’s still doing bubble lettering, not a solid letter. What am I doing wrong 😢
Did you figure this out? I’m having the same issue 😢
Could I type out every address in one project on Canva just on separate pages? Or do you have to save each “envelope” address as a different PNG?
Yes, this should work and would save you from having to download every single time! All of your PNGs would end up in a one folder at the end which is great!
@@nikkitube26 Sorry, I'm also having trouble with my cricut drawing the outline of the font, since it doesn't fill it in it looks funny. But I downloaded the same font you did. Any tips?
@@hannahbrannen6973 the only thing you could do is make the text smaller so that it looks like one line opposed to and unfilled letter
What white gel pens did you buy from Amazon for your invitations?
I just updated the description with the link to the exact ones I used!!
@@nikkitube26 How many envelopes could you get out of 1 white gel pen? I'm afraid of it running out mid addressing, and then wasting an envelope!
What are you using to stick the envelops onto the mat?
I'm having the same problem. Is there another kinda mat you used?
@@kelseykenney4653 So the sticky template was tearing my envelopes so I stuck copy paper on the sticky part and used two small strips of painters tape to hope the envelops in place.
@@marissa4356 that was a very good idea!! I was able to finish all my envelopes. I just need to learn how to export the addresses
I love all your hints and tips…But I’m finding it hard to follow because you talk so fast :) just slow down a little just so it’s easier to understand you. But it’s ok I’ve had to rewatch the video a few times 😂😂
You can slow down the video in settings. Playback speed.
Slow down. 🤦♀️
OMG- there is nothing worse for me than the youtube slow talkers!!!
