I can honestly say I learned more watching this video than I did watching the last 5 or so! Thank you so much, I was really beginning to feel as if I bought the wrong machine.
Awesome video!!! I just got my Explore Air delivered yesterday and wasn't sure where to begin making stickers for my planner. Thank you!!!! 😀 can't wait to get started!!!
Hi! I am not claiming myself to be a Cricut expert, but I was searching around on UA-cam for other Cricut sticker videos. I found that you can take your mouse and start at the corner of your image. Drag your mouse to the other corner of your image and a blue box should appear around your image. The align box next to arrange should now appear. If you want your text centered, click the drop arrow and click center. - Cricut Crafter
Thank you so much for creating this video! I have been looking for a while on how to make stickers and this helps. I subscribed to your channel just because of this video and your shop :)
Hi there! I'm new to the cricut family. I am just wondering how to get the images for your icons? Like the camera, grocery cart, champagne flutes... Did you find them on google and upload them or?
hey! What if you download printable files from etsy....how do you upload them and get them ready to print then cut...especially if there's like white stripes...everytime i put into inkscape or try to convert it to svg it cuts out the white parts...how do i keep the stickers file like i bought them but still print and cut...i'm new to it...trying to figure it out!
If you don't want to eye ball your centering, select the letters then hold shift and select the background. Then go to the top bar to the Align option and center as needed! :)
do you mind me asking what other programs you use to create your own stickers. right now I have been using Adobe illustrator. I'm just wondering if there may be some other ones I should check out? TIA
Hi Chrissy, Thank you so much for your help. I just bought a circut and I want to sell stickers in my shop. So you buy stickers on circut and cut and print them and then sell them in your shop? I am confused on this whole thing. So as long as you buy them you can sell them commercially too and not just use them for personal use? Are etsy shop owners also free to sell the circut fonts they use on their stickers also. I guess I am confused on what is allowed for reselling in an etsy shop.
You actually don't have to eyeball the centering. When you select both the align feature comes up at the top of your page. If you click that and go to center it will center the writing in the box for you. The sync panel let's you sync up colors. Let's say you've made the ombré list and want to have the same color in your banner etc you can just drag it into the same color you have on the mat already. Also I promise you making that mug with vinyl is a whole lot easier than making the stickers using print then cut. Just give it a try!
If you're using an image that isn't from design space will the cricut still cut it properly? Like, the cupcake that you used for example, how precise is the cut?
Ooooh, that bleed feature is awesome. I haven't seen anything like that in Silhouette. I just intentionally make my boxes bigger and the cut lines smaller for that.
Great video! Any idea how etsy sellers create their main photo when selling? I use Silhouette studio but am unsure how to pull my work created to place on a backdrop like they do. I'm sure most don't print, take a photo and then put in front of a backdrop. any suggestions?
Really helpful. Just got an Explore Gold & new laptop so gonna have my 1st stadium @ planners I got a inexpensive Mead 4 my 1st yr 2 work out all my kinks. Mayb next yr I will receive an AC 1. I am very interested n making my own stickers.
Chrissy what sticker paper do you use? Are you using full sheets from a certain brand and then rounding/cutting them down to the 6x8? Or you are using precut sheets already sized? I notice the sheets have a like a rounded effect on them when looking at your videos. Thanks :) Also I need to order my first ECLP where is your link for referral credit? Thanks!
+paulie lockets I'm sorry I don't give out that information as it's the "secret in the sauce" type thing with my business. As for the referral link, that's always in the description of all of my videos. Thanks!
Hi CrissyLilly!! and Greetings from the Island of Guam!! :o) I totally want a circuit now!! thank you so much for this video... you make it look so easy and doable!! :o)
sheryllw I know you asked this question a while ago but I am only now seeing it. I do a couple of things with my sticker paper scraps. I'll save larger pieces for smaller printable sticker sheets, stamp images and fussy cut or I will turn them into white .25" strips to cover up the header(s) in my Recollections and Happy Planner.
I have been pulling my hair trying to figure this one out. How do I get my shop logo on the sheet but not have it cut? I want my stickers to be cut but my shop logo only to be printed on the sheet. Every time I set the machine to start cutting, it cuts my shop logo as well which ruins everything
so i have the explore one but when i print and don't add a bleed it doesnt cut ok so when I make stickers for someone else they get all messed up. I usually create in illustrator. How can I fix that?
+Creative Life I had to calibrate mine wrong... so if I saw that the cuts were too far down I would calibrate it so the cut on the calibration sheet was cutting above the line! I hope that makes sense!
Hey! Can you recommend any good fb groups that can assist me with my problem? I'm in 5 of them and I don't seem to get any responses! I'm trying to cut my stickers so they can fit into my planner pocket. I see some shops have the edges curved and I was wondering how I can do that!
My cricut machine does not come in until Thursday but I downloaded design space so I can play around and get to know it. I created some designs using only free images, fonts, patterns, etc. to make a sticker sheet for my planner. I was going to use the print and cut feature. But when I click on "make it" it says that it costs $1.98. I used only free things and it is my project, how do I figure out what I am being charged for?
You may have selected a font that has a cost or inadvertently chose a paid image. No worries, when you get your new Cricut it will include a month free of Cricut Access and you can play around with it and see what it offers, free and paid. Enjoy! I got my Cricut Explore Air last week and I am in heaven!
Wanted to say hello and THANK YOU. This is the FIRST video of dozens I've poured through since getting My Explore Air2 for Xmas, learning all I can. QUESTION: Im never able to get my print properties box to show up when I wanted to print and cut... your printer options pop right up... Why doesnt my epson pop up with the options box? :( Cricut couldnt help me figure it out.. Also, such great HELPFUL information about sticker printing. Very well done. :) Blessings from the Great Pacific Northwest, Lakewood Washington! Happy New Year
Stacy Medina Hey! I was having a similar issue. It might be the browser you are using. I was using Mozilla Firefox and one day my printer options wouldn't pop up anymore. Cricut seems to be having an issue with Mozilla. I have since switched to Internet Explorer for my cricut projects and it pops up just fine. I also recommend trying to connect your printer to your computer via wire (if you are using Bluetooth at the moment) if the new browser doesn't help
First of all... I loved your video. It was very helpful as I have not been able to find stickers I actually like that fit my planner. I love the idea of making my own! I do not yet own a Cricut or Silhouettte but will be getting one for my birthday next week. Would you mind me asking what you are using now since you switched from the Cricut?
Can the Cricut do everything the Silhouette can do? Which do you like better? Can the Cricut make stickers with patterns on them...for example the chevron patter in your banners.
I can honestly say I learned more watching this video than I did watching the last 5 or so! Thank you so much, I was really beginning to feel as if I bought the wrong machine.
Thank you so much!!!!! I've had a circuit for years and never realized how awesome it is until right now!!
Would love to see more videos with Cricut and planner stickers. There seems to be more silhouette how to videos out there. Love your video.
Chrissy that was a great video, I have a Cricut and learned so much. Would love more videos like this .
Thanks
Chris
That is very true about your designs and personality that gets you business. Great video I do appreciate it ❤
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much!!! I got my first Cricut today and have been so lost!! This was perfect!
Thank You For Sharing ! God Will Bless You For Blessing Those That Cannot Purchase In This Season!
Blessings!
I just bought one on eBay and did not know how to work it. There was nothing included!!! Omgoodness!!!! Thank you for this blog!!! You saved me!!!😎😊
You can align your text with your shapes. There's an option at the top when you highlight both images, it says align. It's next to arrange.
+Two Hearts One Love Designs thank you I didn't even realise that!
Thank so much for sharing. I have been playing around with silhouette studi but now I might have to check out the cricut.
Awesome video!!! I just got my Explore Air delivered yesterday and wasn't sure where to begin making stickers for my planner. Thank you!!!! 😀 can't wait to get started!!!
thank you for sharing, i dont have any machines but have been trying to decide between cricut or silhouette
Loved it. Thanks so much. Can't wait to try it.
I loved this video! I really want a cricket! I just got into planning and want to play around with making my own stickers.
Thank you!
Hiii this is a great video! Which Cricut is this?
what do you use now? haven't decided between the 2. thanks!
Hi, Thanks for the video. How do you get the explore to not cut your logo at the bottom?
Hi! I am not claiming myself to be a Cricut expert, but I was searching around on UA-cam for other Cricut sticker videos. I found that you can take your mouse and start at the corner of your image.

Thank you for sharing! I was wondering when you put your name on the sticker sheet does it get cut out when the stickers get cut?
which cricut do you have? with the balloons and banners, do it cut all the way around or is there each on edges?
Thanks

I love the tutorals... Keep them coming!!! Thank you!
Which circut do you have? Does the circut explore air cut pages 8.5x11 size pages?
also your logo at the bottom of the page.. is there a way to only print it and not have it cut out when you are cutting all the other stickers?
What brand of sticker paper do you use?

What are the sizes you make each item? Like weekend banner? Individual cupcake sticker? Ombré boxes? Flags?, etc?
I know it's an older video of yours but I wanted to know is it just a simple to print and cut printable stickers from shops? Thank you
What paper do you recommend?
Thank you so much for the video.But how do you get your stickers off without them curling?And where did you get the donuts?????So freakin cute!
what version of cricut did you use for this tutorial
how do you get a rectangle? I only have square diamond that kind of thing
What sticker paper do you use? I bought Cricut sticker paper and it's way to thick.
If you're using an image that isn't from design space will the cricut still cut it properly? Like, the cupcake that you used for example, how precise is the cut?
Lynne Johnson it is exact.
This video was so helpful thank you so much!
Ooooh, that bleed feature is awesome. I haven't seen anything like that in Silhouette. I just intentionally make my boxes bigger and the cut lines smaller for that.
Thanks so much. Can you do a video on putting 2 sheets of stickers on one page?
Great video! Any idea how etsy sellers create their main photo when selling? I use Silhouette studio but am unsure how to pull my work created to place on a backdrop like they do. I'm sure most don't print, take a photo and then put in front of a backdrop. any suggestions?

Why is there a thick black border around the perimeter of the sticker sheet when I print on paper?
Do you still use your circuit? I would like to make my own stickers and trying to find updated tutorial.
Do u print it on regular paper or sticker paper?
I print on sticker paper for my sticker shop, but you can definitely print on regular paper and glue your stickers down! :)
You mentioned you can go outside of Cricut for more images. Do you need to install another program for that?
Michelle Solis yes, you should go watch some of Moe Howard's videos. She shows how to do stuff on Inkscape and Pixlr.
This is a great video! Just FYI, you don't have to eyeball centering your text. You can select text & box, hit align, and hit center.
Hi, what eye dropper program do you use? I'm having a hard making ombra check lists. Thanks for the help.
Hi CrissyLilly!! and Greetings from the Island of Guam!! :o) I totally want a circuit now!! thank you so much for this video... you make it look so easy and doable!! :o)
Thanks so much for your help!!
Thanks
thank you so much, this is perfect!!
what do you do with the paper scraps, since it doesn't do a whole page ?
sheryllw I know you asked this question a while ago but I am only now seeing it. I do a couple of things with my sticker paper scraps. I'll save larger pieces for smaller printable sticker sheets, stamp images and fussy cut or I will turn them into white .25" strips to cover up the header(s) in my Recollections and Happy Planner.
sheryllw doing the strip's makes it so when I use washi, the color from underneath the washi doesn't bleed through
Circut or silhouette? Also, do you have to pay monthly for these to use their library?
It's optional. I don't pay for the subscription.
where did you get your Cricut from I am looking for a cheap one but not so cheap that it doesn't work right if you know what I mean?
You could get it from Walmart that's where I saw it, but the price that I saw was 129.99
it was very helpful! Thank you!
Do you have to have a certain Cricut for this?
Abby A you need an Explore model.
I have been pulling my hair trying to figure this one out. How do I get my shop logo on the sheet but not have it cut? I want my stickers to be cut but my shop logo only to be printed on the sheet. Every time I set the machine to start cutting, it cuts my shop logo as well which ruins everything
My cricket cut all the way through how do you stop that from happening I’ve tried different setting
What if I buy designs from Etsy? How do I upload that into the design space? Do I need to buy a scanner? Can you teach us that?
so i have the explore one but when i print and don't add a bleed it doesnt cut ok so when I make stickers for someone else they get all messed up. I usually create in illustrator. How can I fix that?
Have you calibrated your Cricut? Mine was being funky last night and I re-calibrated and it cut perfectly again. Hope that works for you.
+Creative Life I had to calibrate mine wrong... so if I saw that the cuts were too far down I would calibrate it so the cut on the calibration sheet was cutting above the line! I hope that makes sense!
+Creative Life I calibrated it over 10 times an still doesn't work
+ChrissyLilly I tried that too and it still doesn't work right. Not sure if it's my file too...
+kiraaxchaos I'm not sure. I'm not an expert :( I would contact Cricut support!
How do you add your logo with out it cutting?
annaxbarie after adding the logo, you go to the layers tab and click the eyeball so it has a / across it. once it does, it will not cut.
Hey! Can you recommend any good fb groups that can assist me with my problem? I'm in 5 of them and I don't seem to get any responses!

I honestly can’t remember what the Cricut software was like anymore, I’m sorry! Maybe someone else could help!

It looks like it's not possible to cut stickers with the Cricut Expression...or am I mistaken?
Terrie Wilkinson you can, but you can't download your own images, and it may not cut sticker paper well. You'd need to use Cricut craft room.
Thanks for this!! I just got my cricut and was so frustrated on why my images was all over the place, wasted so much paper. ^_^
Awesome video, thanks! How do you do to not cut your branding 'Pretty on Paper Co'? I love that you are from Canada eh! I'm from Toronto :)
+Machi Lee I actually switched from Cricut a few months ago. I couldn't figure out how to get my logo not to cut out using Cricut, I'm sorry!
+ChrissyLilly no worries! Thank you for replying :)

+Gloria RODRIGUEZ I'm not sure I'm sorry
+Gloria RODRIGUEZ try Melody Lane videos! She just started planner stickers!
Can the Cricut do everything the Silhouette can do? Which do you like better? Can the Cricut make stickers with patterns on them...for example the chevron patter in your banners.
yes it can do the same things as the silhouette
is there any way to filter the music out of this vid? would love to watch it in full, but the bell ring lol is so distracting
The mute button
@@ChrissyLillysLife no shit
lmao "kick ass torrents"
Whar paper do you use for your stickers?
