Thank you! The settings you suggested is JUST what I needed.

I cant wait to try this setting 🙏🏻 it works and the tip for removing your project fr the mat 💛.

Thank you so much! I had no idea where the heck to find this intricate cut that everyone was talking about!!

WOW thank you so much!!!!

Very helpful! Thanks

well thank you so much, I used the MANDALA from you to test my Maker and it worked great, so easy to take off from the mat, you are super, thanks again, I waisted so much paper because it did nor cut all the best, or I had to cut it by hand, now, I am really happy

I like how you always have an alternative.

Thank you for the good advice! Those intricate cuts are amazing.

This video spurred me to finally get an annual subscription to Skillshare. Thanks!

Thank you for the video and also the free templates

This is such a good video. Thank you. It worked. My only slight concern is that it too much longer to cut if I am looking to make wedding invitations. I guess I can use slightly less intricate designs.

thanks.

Wish I could add a photo. But, just know...you've helped my projects go to the next level!!

Omg thank you! I just bought the $470 machine and wondered be why it can't cut fine details. Will try again

Hi 👋 thanks for the video. I did everything you said except the light grip mat, so I will try that and see if that makes a difference. I am having the issue with the transfer paper on the cut and print .. won’t cut trees or plants. Keeps ripping and I have tried everything! Except changing the mat to light grip. 🤞

Hi Liz, this is exactly what I've been looking for but I don't have an ipad. I want to make cards but instead of cutting the intricate patterns out of card and sticking them to the front of another card I want the pattern to be on the first page of the card like the elephant one if that makes sense.

Hi Liz, thanks for the informative video - i have a couple of questions regarding the cricut performance - 1) can the machine cut all the way up to the edges of the 12 inch area ? 2) how many cutting sessions do you think you have been able to churn out with the same blade ? had a third question, but seem to have forgotten now - will ask if i remember. thx again.

Great video. Do you have any tips on intricate cuts using matte vinyl? I’m specifically struggling with 651 Oracle Matte vinyl, trying to cut small letters. Any suggestions? Thank you!

Hi there, I saw somewhere to use the Washi setting for intricate cuts on vinyl. I tried it and it works!

Hi Liz, thanks for this video. I tried the intricate cut today on a shimmer cardstock of 120grms. It worked the best for my intricate cuts, but still shredded the beginning of the cut, I'm assuming cos my mat has too many cuts on it (lightgrip mat). What pressure do you use for this cut? And on what cardstock? Do you go more pressure on a thicker cardstock and less on a thinner one?

Hi Janine, I'm sorry to hear that! I used the default pressure setting. You might consider asking in a Cricut Facebook group and posting some photo examples of the issue as someone there may have more knowledge on the issue. I've had success with the settings I show in the class but other than that I'm not sure how else to help! ~Liz

Have you ever had issues with the cut twice feature not lining up on the second cut? Or just making the whole thing worse?

hi Kristen, I’ve never seen that issue on my machine, but I’ve heard some people talk about issues like that when they had a dull blade. I’m not sure how many cuts you can get out of a single blade, so it may be worth changing it out to see if that helps! Liz

thanks for the great advice it really helped....are the images still available?

I am using Glitterflex ultra to cut out intricate tree of life pattern on Explore Air 2. The vinyl seems to bunch up. I changed the blade, but still having issues. Should I increase blade pressure of use setting different than glitter vinyl setting? The leaves and branches are hard to weed.

Hi Linda, I've never used that type of paper so I can't say for sure! I would probably just experiment with a few different options (like increasing the pressure as you said or trying a different paper setting). I know that vinyls are difficult to cut, so it may be worth joining a Cricut Facebook group to see if anyone can give some better advice! ~Liz

I feel like I have tried everything and intricate cuts still rip and tear. I have purchased a new blade and new mats too! Is there a better type of paper for intricate cuts?

@shandra Have you had any success or new findings on how to cut small designs? I'm having the same issue where the blade keeps lifting the vinyl and ends up messing up the whole cut 😭 I'm about to give up! I also bought a new blade. it's still rips and tears the whole thing. 😭

Question do you keep the pressure at default or more for the intricate setting?

@teamlizkohlerbrown

3 жыл бұрын

Default should work!

I am trying to create my own cutting files but my lines ended up too thin, can I ask how it you decide what lines are too thin for cricut and what are ok? (What’s the thinnest line you can make and still have cricut be able to do a good cut of?)

@teamlizkohlerbrown

I'd say it would depend on your blade and paper so testing different line thicknesses with whatever combo you have would be the only way to know for sure! Hope that helps!

I'm really keen to know if you can use an Adobe Illustrator, say exporting it without the image being resized.

I have tried the "eat sleep create" pattern several times on vinyl and every time the smallest pieces seem to lift off the backing sheet during the cutting process. I have used different vinyls, changed the blade, changed the material setting as well as the pressure setting. Still having the same issue. Any ideas?

Cricut machines are sold anywhere you can find craft supplies. I know quite a few people who have been happy with used models as well!

What is a PNG file? I’m a beginner. In trying to download the elephant image it states: cut or print and cut. Does this need to be printed? Trying to download onto my canvas. Thank you. Jerry 👩🏻⚜️

A PNG file is similar to a JPEG and transfers well to the Cricut Canvas. So just save the PNGs and then import them to the Canvas like in the video!

Can you use fabric to get these intricate cuts?

@LizKohlerBrown

5 жыл бұрын

Hi Mickey, I have the fabric mat, but I haven't tried it yet, so I can't say for sure! My guess is it couldn't be quite as intricate as paper though, because the fibers of most fabrics would just fall apart if you cut so finely.

Did you use the deep cut fine blade? Thanks for this tutorial!!

You may have discovered this by now ..Once you go to make It and it separates to mats ,see if there is a green EDIT under the left of the mat that is about to be cut. Click on that and the layout opens showing the placement of your piece on the mat. This is the spot where you can move the placement up, down or turn around to an angle. Hope this helped.

Why are you using the light grip mat?
