I use Art glitter glue there's no glitter in it but that's the only glue I use. The you use very little of it a dot will stick forever the less glue you use the better. AMAZON has it. I don't use my cricut as much so i don't know all to do the flattening etc. Thank you for this video it was very helpful.
Thank you Kayla!! Cant wait to make cards. I love buying and picking out individual cards for ppl in my, family, church, and community. I CAN'T WAIT now TO make them more special.
Finally I found this step-by-step tutorial on how to create a card. I have been sticking with vinyl projects. Onto cardstock and some beautiful results!! Thanks!
Thank you so much! I am making small invites and need 140 of them. This is timely but so glad to know how to print multiple, then cut multiple, rather than each one at a time!
I use the double sided glue from Hobby Lobby, it works great & it’s only $3.99! This was a great tutorial. I made my 2nd card last night & I’m watching more videos for ideas, thank you! Now I know how to create my own envelopes!!!
This is the best by far tutorial for card making! Thank You so so much....Now I just need to get the scoring tool and try it. Thank You Thank You so very much! 💖
Whoa! This has a lot of steps! But it was wonderful seeing how you made this. Whew I know I will need practice doing this and making sure I have all the blades I need for cardstock. Thank you so much for sharing this! Very informative! ♥️
I love this! I originally wanted a Cricut to make cards, although I haven't made a single one since I got my Maker. I've done a bunch of other projects, but not cards. I guess it's time to get busy and make one for my mom! Thanks for the step-by-step tutorial. :)
Your card is so pretty! I bought an explore air 2 this past November and so far, made only one vinyl for my cannister. I'm curious as to why you didn't let the cricut make solid letters so you didn't have to fill it in.
Great video. I love your teaching style! Isn't there a way to get the Cricut to color in the letters instead of doing it free-hand? I'd mess up for sure!
I followed your steps word for word. The only thing I did wrong was use a liquid glue which made the paper soggy and showed through. But I really loved your video and I was able to make a card for my first time!!
I just got my Cricut Air Explore 2 and have no idea where to start! I searched a couple tutorials on UA-cam but they were not very detailed for someone who’s a beginner like myself. I love how you went step by step and explained things. You made it look soooo easy lol. I’ve subscribed to your channel ❤️
Thank you for this video…. Cricut Design space makes it hard to understand how to do a card…. I have no clue what size the cards are when I look through the projects!!! Do you know what size cards are R10, R20, R30 and R40…… that’s really confusing… I just wanted to find a card the size you would buy at the store and and envelope and it’s very hard to find one… I believe the store ones are about a 5x7 …. Thank you!!!!
Nice job! I’ve been using Art Glitter Glue for years and love it. It dries clear. I’d suggest that you fold the sides of your envelope in first, then fold the bottom up.
Is it possible for me to use construction paper instead of card stock or would that mess up anything? I just don’t have any card stock and I kind of wanted to try something with this today.
So I don’t have the scoring wheel I have one that you do by hand if I put the score down the middle will the cricut tell me to put it in or how do I go about that? New to this sorry if I don’t make sense !😂
Ms. Kayla can you make your own cutaway card with your own cardstock to be used on cricut card mat from a 12x12 card stock sheet, or would you have to add you own sheet behind the cover after using cricut to cut front out,the glue foil or what ever on back of front cover cutout that's what I've been doing i wondered if there was a better way? Do you know what I mean,I just don't want to buy cutaway cards!
So the only way to get the text on the inside to be solid letters is to color it in? That's crazy considering this machine has so many features. Is there no "fill in" feature?
My paper gets stuck to my light grip mat and I can’t peel it off easily without the card bending and creasing and even though I chose the right weight it didn’t cut through either what am I doing wrong ?
I have found that thinner paper just doesn’t work well on even the light grip mat. You can find thinner cardstock that cuts and removes from the mat so much better. I tried cutting regular computer paper on the light grip mat once, and it was a complete disaster!
I am going to be making cards to put on my etsy shop for sending through the mail. Are these the correct measurements to do that? I looked it up online but it is still kind of confusing XD
I am trying to write my wedding invitations with my cricut, I know not super practical but I just love the look. I am using blank card stock invitations from Wilton to write on so they’re already the right size but I can NOT figure out how to line it up so the writing is centered on my invitation! Someone PLEASE help me! I’m a brand new cricut user! I just got it for my bday/Mother’s Day, so I’m new new lol
This was a great tutorial, it was my first project. Question: I am not sure why it didn’t prompt me to put in the marker on the inside of my card, even though it said Score, Draw and Cut. Do you know why that would be?
Envelope center fold area should be 5.25 x 7.25 - I make sure the fold lines are attached and then I pull on the center piece and make it the size I need - by doing that the rest of the envelope auto enlarges to the right size
Marlene Nicholl I am trying to understand your process. Not sure where the center fold area is located on the envelope or how you pull from the center piece to re-size
I was just saying out loud "Nooo don't glue the card down". Then you said its not a good idea. Only glue near the back of the spine down, or just the back page. Great video 👍🏻
I just subscribed to you channel and I love it, very helpful and informative. I just got a cricut maker and didn’t know where to start. Thank you so much. Have you done a video on how to make stickers?
Why do you have to print the design on a regular printer, then put it through the Cricut to cut and score? Why not have the Cricut print, score and cut all at once? I don't understand how the Cricut "knows" where to cut.
There's not a way to fill it in on Cricut Design Space, sadly! You either have to find a find a writing font that gives it one line or color it in yourself. Usually I ended up trying to find a writing font because it looks a little nicer than filling it in.
You have to buy something else just to score????? This company seems greedy af I'm sorry lol...but forreal...I thought the machine did most of it without having to buy so many attachments. Ty for the video, still watching
Trish McCarty I know how you feel. When I was confident to do other projects I learned quickly that I needed other tools and I was like “whaaaat?” I went to the cricut website to only find that the tools are out of stock. Oh, and to add to the expense, different housing is needed for different blades...OUCH!
@@laurawhittaker7217 I only wanted it for a fun hobby but I could see buying it all for if you were starting a business...I would've just expected that it'd have the basics for a $200 machine ( air 2).

Very easy tutorial, there is such a need for tutorials making larger sized cards with the Cricut machines. So, thank you so so much..!!

Hi, can I use score stylus in explore 3 ? Or do I need the tool x
Great video. I love your teaching style! Isn't there a way to get the Cricut to color in the letters instead of doing it free-hand? I'd mess up for sure!
Can I use printing paper for the interior of the card and the envelope?
i use doubble sided tape it works better than glue sticks. and i am also new at the cricut machine 😀
I’m still waiting for my Cricut to come in the mail it’s supposed to come tomorrow that would be great that way I can make Mother’s Day cards
That would be perfect! I heard shipping is taking longer right now with shipping. It will be exciting to get it in the mail!
Great tube! There is a LOT going on in this tutorial, but I learned a lot too. Keep'em coming Kayla. Thanks!
Very nice!
Very nice card tutoriel video ! 😃

Tombow liquid glue is great for cards and 3D projects.

When you fold the cards do they line up perfectly? I find that mine don’t. Do you have any tips?
Hi, another question for you, what thickness card do you use for the envelope please?
Nice job! I’ve been using Art Glitter Glue for years and love it. It dries clear. I’d suggest that you fold the sides of your envelope in first, then fold the bottom up.
Kathe B thank you so much for the tips!! :) I’ll check out the art glitter glue!
Is it possible for me to use construction paper instead of card stock or would that mess up anything? I just don’t have any card stock and I kind of wanted to try something with this today.
Can't you duplicate the pink shape+score and just size it down and change the color?
So I don’t have the scoring wheel I have one that you do by hand if I put the score down the middle will the cricut tell me to put it in or how do I go about that? New to this sorry if I don’t make sense !😂

This was just awesome.. really!! New subbie!❤️
what kind of cardstock do you need? And what size?
Watching wow Krystal Rivera come like. Thumbs up 👍. To.
Love you right asking
So the only way to get the text on the inside to be solid letters is to color it in? That's crazy considering this machine has so many features. Is there no "fill in" feature?
It depends on the font.
My paper gets stuck to my light grip mat and I can’t peel it off easily without the card bending and creasing and even though I chose the right weight it didn’t cut through either what am I doing wrong ?

Awesome content. What printer do you recommend?

What type of glue do u use??
@@mssherrelleness double sided tape, or a high tac glue
I know this was posted like a year ago, but definitely get yourself a tape runner. It’s so much easier and cleaner to use than a glue stick. ☺️
I would put the finished envelope back into the Cricut to write "for Mom" on the front.

The scoring tool does not work in explorer Cricut.
I think the explore uses a scoring stylus
@@karennaturallyartby it does but the pressure is not correct. Cricut hasn’t found a fix yet.
i started using Art glitter glue which I bought my first one from Maymaymadeit big craft youtuber.
Why do you have to print the design on a regular printer, then put it through the Cricut to cut and score? Why not have the Cricut print, score and cut all at once? I don't understand how the Cricut "knows" where to cut.
The cricut doesnt print like a printer
See, this is why I know I cannot have my cricut on the desk. I would stare at it work the whole time and do nothing else!
How do you change a font that just outlines when it draws? Is there a way to have that fill in?
There's not a way to fill it in on Cricut Design Space, sadly! You either have to find a find a writing font that gives it one line or color it in yourself. Usually I ended up trying to find a writing font because it looks a little nicer than filling it in.
@@KaylasCricutCreations oh okay thank you.
I use Art glitter glue - buy on Amazon or from MayMayMadeIt.com
Marlene Nicholl thank you! Someone else just suggested it..I’ll be buying it! :)
Eventually will make cards but after spending close to $500 they're gonna have to wait.... :/
I bought an air 2 bundle plus a walt fancy printer
You have to buy something else just to score?????
