    Thank you so much for watching! Yes, cake toppers are super easy to make with the Cricut! I love supporting Etsy shops but one of the perks of investing in a Cricut machine is that you can make all of these things yourself!

    Yes, you could just mirror the image and glue the two pieces together with the stick in the middle. Or you could spray paint the back, which is what I do from time to time. It’s extremely difficult to get the two pieces of card stock to line up perfectly, which is why I don’t typically make my cake toppers double sided.

    Hi Jenny! Yes, I've made the design is reverse to make it double sided. This works best if you choose a thick font. For thiner font designs, I've actually spray painted the backs so they weren't just plan white. The gold spray paint I use is called "Krylon Short Cuts", it matches the Michael's Recollections gold glitter paper really well. Good luck with your cake topper and wedding planning!!

    Hi! I’m sorry that happened! This sometimes happens with new mats and it’s so frustrating. I always use a microfiber towel on my new mats to reduce the stickiness. I just lay the towel down on the mat, press down a little and pull it off 3 or 4 times. Also when you pull the paper off of a new mat, try bending the mat to remove the paper instead of pulling the paper off the mat. I hope that makes sense.

    Hi! Were you able to find the recollections brand of card stock at your Michaels? It's the only brand I'll use for cake toppers, everything else is too thin.

    Very nice! Which Cricut did you use? I’m thinking about buying one. Also, What do you think of the Cricut Cake?

    Thank you! I would definitely recommend getting one!!I have the “Cricut explore air 2” and it’s perfect for what I use it for. The new “Cricut maker” is great if you work with material because it has a rotary blade, it’s just a little more expensive. As for the Cricut Cake, I’ve never used one but it’s definitely on my wish list!! If you end up getting one let me know if you have any questions! I love talking Cricut 😊

    Hi! I use the glitter card stock setting and I select the more pressure option on the “make it” page. I’m working on a new video that will show all my settings.
