Straight and to the point w/ no unnecessary fluff. Thank you ma'am! 💪🏽
Thanks. I had a feeling it wasn't hard to do. Now i can do my own from now on and don't need to order from Etsy! 😉
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!
@@SprinkledwithPaper Yes! I agree!
@@SprinkledwithPaper Does the machine come with a graphics program to install or do you have to find one yourself.
It comes with Cricut Design Space that has 1000’s of designs but you could also make your own or purchase them for sites like Etsy.
Thanks for sharing. I love how detailed this video is without too much additional info.
This tutorial was awesome! You make it look very easy and am very excited to try it myself! Thank you!
Glad I came across this video I just got my cricut and I’m going to try this project for my baby’s 1st bday cake topper! Thanks for sharing
Clear and concise. Thank you!!
straight to the point, very clear and helpful. Thank you and keep up the great work.
Love videos like this... I cant stand to watch any when the person talks and talks and 5 or so minutes pass before they even start making the products
Thank you!!

Thanks so much for watching! Good luck with your cake topper!! Let me know if you have any questions!
So cute!! I did find that the blue light grip mat is working a lot better for my toppers & stencils! I had always used the green original mat before and it was hard to get off too.
Thank you! Very easy to follow and I was so thankful your voice was pleasant to listen to!
Lol! Thanks for watching!

Wow!!! I really love your video! Wich one is better Cricut maker or Cricut explore air 2? I need it for cake topper! Thank you!!!
Very nice thanks
Thank you for watching!! 😊
Thank You So Much i Just Got my Cricut maker i was so lost this was the most easiest Diy video not to complicated to follow !! You Got a New subbie !!!
This is so neat. I recently purchased a joy. Could this be done by the same concept on it?
Can I create my own design using the Cricut expression machine? I’m very new to this, thanks!
Thanks for the tutorial, I'm having difficulty getting slice to appear for i
what type of blade did you us =e for this project? Making my first cake topper this week and I'm so nervous haha
Can you upload a picture or clip art on with this software?
Hello, How did you screen share? Loved your video btw!! :)
What blade do you use ? Please I am a Newbee I need to make 2 cake toppers .. Thank you 😊
Hello I created my own cake topper but It says I have to pay when the font said it was free any idea what can I do? And thank you so much I learned how to weld & cut thanks to you.
Can you cut two metallic sheets? One for the front and one to cover the back? I don’t care for the white on the back…Turn one sheet backwards or white side up when loading the machine…?
Thanks…🌷
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 😊
So nice! Which model of cricut machine is it? Your link doesn't work in my country 😅
Can you use acrylic on the Cricut explore 2?
What if you wanted the back of the cut out to match the gold paper facing forward - would you cut the words again in the gold cardstock as reverse/mirror so you wouldn't have the back just plain white and glue back-to-back the 2 pieces? TY Rachel M.
thats what i was thinking as well
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.
Would I buy the same paper even if I didn’t want to do a glittery style?
Where can i get that font , thank you
how do you know what size to make the toppers in please?
Can i make cake toppers on the cricut expression? Will cricut expression connect to laptop?
What’s the name for your cricut machine? Thank you :)
I made a few centerpieces for someone yesterday and one side is floppy. Is it not evened out enough? I've just now come across your video. We made them work for their party today but I want to offer them in the future. I'm sure I used similar paper. It's a large piece from Hobby Lobby. I used the poster board setting but it was too much but I used it anyways. I have Explore One.
Considering doing this for my daughter’s wedding cake. Do you ever print the design in reverse to attach to the backside so it will be double-sided? I would like to have glitter on both sides.
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!!
What font did you use as I cannot find it on my cricut
Is their a different knife to cut the card from vinyl?
thanks! i wanted to know if i could do this with a cricut joy? also can i make it 2.5 inches?
You may have to change the size of the font since Joy mat is small
do you think this is possible on the circuit joy??
Where can I find the Quirky Script font?? I have the Cricut subscription but doesn't seem to be included
Thank you 🙏 .
I was looking for the font on designs space but don’t seem to have it. Did u download Quirky Script font? Thanks
Hi Cathrine, unfortunately Cricut recently removed the quirky script font from Cricut design space. I’m working on finding a replacement. I will message you here on this comment thread once I find one.
What is the font you are using and where do I find it? TIA
Great video. What size do you have your cutter for cardstock?
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.
I want to buy a cricut machine bit I dont know which ones to get. Can I get the most cheapest cricut machine and be able to do this?
What's the best cricut machine for this ? I'm a cake maker and I need to invest in one instead of buying them . Thanks x
What kind of cricket do you use??
My biggest concern was the choice of card stock. I ordered based on another’s video and it was super thin.. but says 65lb 😩 going to stop by Michael’s today and pray that their brand is like yours! Awesome video by the way ❤️ thank you!
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.
how do you slice the letters like that ?? i try but i end up slices the whole thing
Where can I find the corky script font please?
Hi there - such an easy tutorial to follow! Do we have to purchase the quirky font?... is there anyway around this as it's saying $4.99 when I press 'make it'.
+138tc Hi! Thanks for watching! The Quirky Script is a Cricut Design Space font. I believe it’s “free” is you have the $9.99 monthly subscription. I’m going to see if I can find a dupe, that’s free.
I am not able to slice. What am I doing wrong? Also, how to you make one of the words bigger than the others?
This is awesome! I used the cardstock setting and it didn't cut all the way through :(
Same!!
which tool was used for the cutting?
Is that the only material that you can make cake toppers with
Where did you obtain the font? I don’t see it in my Cricut fonts
What do u call the machine that cuts the letters?
What is the font name? And where did you get it
How do you make an apostrophe?
What is the gsm of the card you are using?
Where can I get the font and how do you spell it please?
Where do I find the corky script font?
what is the name of the font? thank you
Great video. Which cricut machine do you recommend?
Thank you! Here is the exact one I use daily amzn.to/2XxIOKe. I also have the Cricut explorer. I don't notice a difference in the cutting quality between the explorer and maker but the maker is able to cut more material types, which is a huge plus.
Hey what was the font name? I can’t find it
Hello thank you for sharing
I was wondering does does glitter fall from the card stock ?
Hello!! The recollections glitter paper from Michaels, doesn't shed. You don't have to worry about glitter getting on your cake! 😊
Sprinkled with Paper thank you so much 😊
@@SprinkledwithPaper I'm thinking about spraying the finished product for a sealant just in case, but that's not food safe either.
Thanks for sharing. Please what's the brand of your cricut machine ?
Hi! In this video I’m using the explorer air 2. I now how a maker but it works the same.
which cricut machine did you use?
What if we don’t have light chipboard?
What blade do you use?? I tried this in cardstock setting and it didn’t fully cut it out.
Hi! I use the standard blade but I select glitter cardstock. The regular cardstock setting won’t completely cut through the thinker cardstocks. You could also try increasing the pressure to more. You can find the pressure setting on the cut page.
Hi i couldn't hear what font you used for this? thanks!
Hi! Thank you for watching! The font is (quirky script), it's a Cricut Design Space font. Good luck with your project!!
