Thank you very much Angie, very helpful video! x
Another great, clear explanation! Thanks!
Great tutorial! Thank you and Happy 2023!
Once again, you are my GO TO person! Great explanations
Thank you for sharing, really helpful
Thank you, just bought a Cricut explore 2. Use my I pad and was looking for videos on how to get familiar with some the functions and this video is exactly what I was looking for.
Hi Angie. Thank you for your detailed instruction . You are very concise and clear in your instructions. Could you do a video on making a wavy text line.?
Great explanation and visual of what we can do with combine!
Happy to help!
Thank you sooooooo much for doing this video! I haven't had the chance to play with the combine function. Now I don't have to figure it out on my own!! Just love your videos! Thanks Angie!
Happy to help!
Great explanation also Angie your book is really helpful as I bought one thanks for all you do.
Awesome! Thank you!
thank you
This video is perfect. I warped some letters, but it wouldn’t let me slice from a shape, but it did allow me to do it with the subtract. Thank you for another wonderful video.
Happy to help!
Thank you for making cricut more accessible for all of us. ❤️ You are such a great teacher.
You are so welcome!
Oh thank you Angie!! I have not played with any of these new features but unite as this is my crunch season ..no times for mistakes.. Have a Blessed Thanksgiving!!
Enjoy!
Thanks Angie
This was so helpful I’m some what of a newbie . If possible Please show this same type of tutorial “with images, “
I’m trying to create baby’s shower thank you tags. 🤗❣️❣️❣️❣️
Thank you so much! I’ve been avoiding this section. 😅
You got this!
Nice explanation.
Glad you liked it!
Thank you for your videos, a lot of good information. I have been trying to take 2 separate photos and combine them into one to put on a wood keychain in print and cut. Any suggestions on where to look for info on how to do it. Thank you.
Pick them both and click flatten.
Hi Angie, Great tutorials always! I hoping you could assist me with cutting out a partial image. I have a butterfly that I 'Only' want the outside of the wings to cut leaving the center of the body area untouched. Allowing me to lift up on each wing for a pop up 3D affect to my card. T.I.A.
Try contour.
Thank you so much!!! I was wondering what those were about. Can’t wait for the layer explanation. I’m frustrated. 😁😁😁
Happy to help!
I would like to see these functions used in a Real project not just a demo
Explained very clearly. Thank you for a great tutorial❤❤❤
You’re welcome 😊
Do you have any videos for a real real newbe, I just saw you on my scroll so I signed up on your page for this, ty 😊

Thank you so much. I was so lost. I still have one question. Is it possible to do any of this with the pen/drawing feature on?
I haven't tried actually!
Thank you Angie! That was very helpful! I understand it a little more now. 😀
Glad it was helpful!
Great video. I have a problem resizing and/or rotating images/text that I have shrunk down to very small. The corners disappear and I am unable to do Anything with the image. Unlocking it doesn’t do anything either. This occurred after all the recent updates. What am I missing ?
Try zooming in on it!
Can you use the subtract to take a word out of the middle of a bigger word and still have it to place back on the top?
That would be slice if you still want to have both pieces.
Love your tutorials but i am at a loss. I made a design for a garden flag. Its too big to print so I usually use slice, cutting in half, print to cut then tape together to sublimate on the flag. It will not allow me to use slice so i was trying one of the other ways under combine but they are not even lit up to use except for weld, and when i choose weld, my design goes away. Any suggestions? I usually just attach everything and slice by using a square shape. Im at a loss.
I would pick everything and click flatten then use a square and slice should work at that point.
Design space for dummies should be out there.I think I will only understand any these features if I knew what would happen if I didn’t use them..😅
I have a video for that! HA HA HA!
Can someone help me? I’m new to using the Cricut and I bought an SVG file off of Etsy that I want to print on a shirt. (It’s 2 colors red and black . ) I wanted to add my name to the file to match the red color . I added the name to the file in canva and I uploaded it to design space as an svg. When I go to complete the project (To the next step “ make” )the black cut on the grid looks ok but the name I put in canva for the red cut is now separated from the image and the letters are set off to the side in a random order. Can someone tell me how I can make the two red images print together and in the way I positioned them on the image? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Click everything and click flatten to make it one printable image.
Hi Angie! Thank you so much for your inspiration and understandable explanations. I do have a question about making stencils with keeping the centers of certain letters from falling out. I can make the “sticks” to insert into those letters and place them in the correct position in Design Space, and it seems that I should be able to highlight those areas and hit Subtract. But I am so frustrated, having spent so much time, over a few days now. When I hit subtract, all of the word gets subtracted! I have tried attaching first, no luck…detaching, grouping, ungrouping and I am baffled. 🤬
Do you have any advice? I am using holiday phrases from the Cricut library so I just need help. Thank you.
I am thinking unite would be better for this?
Thank you for your response. I tried using Unite also, but that has not worked for me.
Since my first comment, I have experimented with using my own text, trying to replicate some of the fonts, etc. Then the SUBTRACT works to remove just a sliver of the those letters so that the centers stay connected in my stencils.
Any other thoughts, since using the Cricut library is a huge plus in creating projects, but that seems to be my issue. The Cricut Design Space Text is when I am not able to subtract that little space in the letters for my stencils.
Thanks again.
I want to combine multiple images that don't touch how can I do that?
Attach them together and they will cut all at once.
I'm having a problem attaching everything so it prints (so to speak) correctly on the mat, but now it all changes to the same color. I don't know how to get around this. I have a complex design (that I purchased) that was not well done. Every single piece cuts separately despite color. When I combine the colors and attach. EVERYTHING turns the same color even if I hid the other items. Is this function no longer available, or is there a different command I need to be using. I even called Cricut, but they were no help. HELP!
You would need to ungroup or contour out the pieces you want to change colors on. It hasn't changed.
Thanks Angie, now those moves make a lot more sense. I think I've run into them in Inkspace or something before. I have a question, not sure if i'm going goofy or what. Wasn't there a fairly recent feature where you could type data on the screen but it didn't print or cut, just like instructions for yourself? Just tell my i'm losing it or put me out of my misery, thanks a bunch Angie! kat
That would be a great feature if it exists!! I always add notes to my projects.
Yes! Try this: czcams.com/video/i9XGxOOEk24/video.html
Is there a function in Cricut design space to draw shapes with a vector tool?
No there is not.
Thank you so much. I'm soooo confused
Happy to help!
Good info but I need a flow chart and a cheat sheet! 😮
Ha! I did not make a sheet at least yet!
You have a spammer!
