seeing all those cricuts working hard is so satisfying and I don't know why lol
hehehehe 🤣 right?! Especially when they cut right!
I’m amazed at how much of a difference the change to Peppamint’s outline made to the vibrancy of the sticker. Very cool lesson.
My favourite sticker pack is the Peppamint one, as I seem to have a slight obsession with cats, even though I have no cat myself, nor am likely to have one, since my son has an allergy to cats. I love your cat, Fluffy, Catherine. 🐈⬛ ❤
heheh Im glad you managed to get some tips for it heheh ✨ YOU DA BEST
Your whole shop and studio are literal #goals. You are such an inspiration
Oh my gosh thank you so so much 😍
God you're getting slimmer. 😱 I haven't seen your vlog in ages and I'm surprised. 😲 You look more beautiful and the dog sticker is very very pretty! 🥰
I’ve missed a few months worth of videos and you are looking amazing! Well done you 😊
Oh my gosh thank you so so much heheh
Definitely love the reworked Peppamint pack! Love it!
I love all of the sticker packs, esp the Puddin' sticker pack 🤩 Why so cute
Been bingeing your videos all day so happy you uploaded!❤
When you pressed cut on the Cricut machines I felt sorry for the yellow machine who didn't start....oh no it's behind! lol
Adorable! I cant decide! I love all stickers!! ❤💖❤💖❤
What a great start to my morning!!😍🤗
I love your vlogs so much! ❤
I loved both stickers so cute.and the totes.
I love these vlogs, so satisfying to watch all the goodies being made and packed and put away all snug ready to be picked, packed and sent to their new homes. xx
Thank you so so much ✨ Im so happy you enjoy watching them! ✨
Everything came out so cute but Peppamint is still by far my favorite 😍
omg you look so different. Still radiant and beautiful but really different. Really nice to see. I hope you're happy 😊
Thanks for another great vlog. You‘re great company when I’m either packing orders or working in the kitchen. You help inspire me to keep on keeping on, thank you!

I’m loving the Peppermint sticker packs ❤ I’m hoping for Peppermint pins ☺️
I love how much you love what you've created. Thanks for sharing your joy with us! 🤍
heheh thank you so so much for watching! YOU DA BEST
💕Everything is beautifully done. I remember one year when you made those little paper ornaments for your studio Christmas tree. 💕
heheh oh my gosh yes! I think I still have some of those!
Love the peppermint tangled in the lights! So sweet! And you're absolutely right, the change in outline color really does make ask the other colors look warmer and pop more. Nice!!!
heheheh Right! Its so crazy what a difference it makes!
This was a great vlog, amazing, all the wonderful work you do. I'm sure I'm not the only one that sees how much you love it. You are definitely an inspiration to me a others.
heheh oh my gosh thank you so so much 😍
I really love your vlogs. I wish I could work in an environment like that!
Oh my goodness thank yu so so much! I feel super lucky!
So proud of you 🥰🥰🥰
Oh my goodness thank you so much ehhehe
I love the Peppamint sticker pack the most but they are all super cute!
heheh thank you so so much 😍
The Puddin' sticker pack is just toooooo cute! You all work so hard, well done on keeping things fresh and exciting!
heheh oh my gosh thank you so much! 😍 This means the world!
I love the new peppamint in the sweater stickers!
Thank you so so uch heheh 😍
OMG I literally rediscovered your channel from like 4 months ago - and then you were gorgeous, but NOW? You look so happy, almost glowing
Oh wow thank you so so much ✨😍
My favorite sticker pack is the Peppamint. I have two cats and they love boxes and anything new
I would love these stickers as like a window cling. So I could put some in my windows for the holiday. I live in a apartment so I can't really do decorations outside.
Love it when I see a new video I get so excited I live the new sticker packs how cute u should do one of the cat with the sweater it’ll be so cute love your creations so much 😍🥰💖💖💖💖💖💖
Ivv be haven’t bought a new cricut mat in years , I now tape down with washi tape!! And you can re use the washi tape quite a few times !
I almost exclusively make sticker sheets now, but recently wondered if i should get back to making more die cut stickers. I do love a good sticker pack.
All your cricuts going at the same time is like a cute little pastel droid craft army and I love it. 💖
Hehe, well said! 💞
heheh lil pastel driod army omg thats so cute 🤣
I also always use the knock off cutting mats and they are indeed stickier and also less flexible than the original mats but i just stick them a couple of times to a plaid or sofa so they get less sticky. The price difference is definitely worth this minor inconvenience for me especially as the durability for the cutting mats (how long they remain sticky enough to use them) are the same - cheaper knock offs definitely for the win for me!
thats a good idea, I think we will probably get the cricut mats in future, although the HTV ones have been better!
all the sticker packs look really nice😀
thank you so so much 😍✨
Uuuuuughh - I get you with the Cricut glitches! Mine have come close to being chucked out of the window many, many times! Usually those glitches don't actually print, even though they show up at every point until you get them out of the printer! Love your videos - great company while I'm working in mine 💕
💞the new intro, very satisfying vibe, Catherine & by the way all of the sticker packs are way 😎❗👏👏👏🎨
hehehe oh my gosh thank you so so much 😍
@@KatnippStudios happy Halloween! @
I love them all. 😬
have loved your vids/illustrations for a long while now and am catching up with some of your vids! i'm curious if there's a reason for your preferences to do sticker packs vs sticker sheets? love your work - keep it up!
Really love watching you at work. Can I ask which guilottine you have? I need to replace mine x
Hello, I love puddin in the box! LOL It was interesting to watch you put more sticker paper on your mat, over the bits that stuck, I will do this next time and not worry about getting the left overs off. Good Idea....and, I love that you make sticker packs for your characters instead of sheets. Another good idea. I'm still working on my pup illustrations for this idea! Love Love your channel, thanks so much for sharing!🤩🥰
heheh Im just lazy and cant be bothered peeling it off 🤣
Love these videos. Where do you get those self assembly storage boxes from. The one you put the sticker packs in at the end. I make card banners and garlands and these would be great for storage. Thanks.
Long time viewer but not sure if I’ve ever commented… I just love your channel your such an inspiration 😍
Oh my gosh thank you so so much welcome to the comment section heheh
Love how tidy and organised your place is, I definitely need some tips 😂 where are the cardboard organisers from?
Love me some Puddin stickers!! And did you say gift tags?? 😍😍😍
Love your personality always makes me cheery to listen to you natter. ..I note your cutters are different colours are two just older ?
that line in cricut happened to me too, stupid glitch when i printed there was no line so thats good! hopefully it worked for you. I defintily need to invest in learning how to use photoshop.
You look amazing. Love your channel. Where did you got those boxes where you stored your stickers?
My god, I've been so busy I haven't watch for a couple of weeks but you look incredible!
Also love the editing
@@mydopaminehighs ehheheh oh my gosh thank you so so much!
Inspirational As always ❤ I would love to see a tutorial about how you “hack” the circuit with PS to get more stickers out of a paper, for me Design space always want me to “shrink” the png and there are lots of waste of the paper 😊
Theres so much paper waste! I just try utilise the maximum size on photoshop so create a canvas with the right size!
How do you make the backings? Make them and print? Or get the cardstock with that color and print? Love your shop ❤❤
This is fantastic! Just posted my video after 3 days of montage (ahah lol ) so I can now relax with you 🥺
Hoping to be as professional as you are 💝✨
heheh oh my goodness you got this! heheh thank you so so much!
Can you please do a tutorial on how to make the backing cards with measurements. Thanks 🥰🥰
of course ill try and show it in a upcoming vlog!
I'm surprised you don't do the full sheet trick for cutting on cricut complements of Mr. Eric Boyd. It works great! Love watching your videos, thank you so much for sharing your journey.
Where can I find this. ?? Will it work with the cricut air?
Ohhh I've never heard of this too! I would love to find out more
I searched it up … seems a very clever hack indeed !!
@@KatnippStudios Here is his tutorial. I love it because you actually print directly from photoshop (so better quality print!). czcams.com/video/xk33hSpLG9c/video.html
So happy the transfers are working well for you and that people love that design you didn’t even intend to sell! I’ve been looking at cricut machines for my own sticker purposes, would you recommend any specific one? There seems to be many different types and some are super pricey. I wasn’t sure what type of sticker paper to use either, not sure if you have suggestions I know some don’t like to disclose it and I totally understand.
I also really appreciate your breakdown of what you do and how you make things, it’s super inspiring and I love seeing the process!
Hmmmm Im not sure actually I only have experience with my Cricut air explore 2's I've not tried any other there is the silhoutte pro, and I know alot of other businesses who use Silhoutte! But other than that Im not too sure!
I got the little bar thing with Cricut a few weeks ago. Fortunately I just test printed and it was fine. Another day, another Cricut glitch.
I bought aload of cheap mats also from AliExpress...only ended up being about £1.20 each I got light, standard and strong they were a bit similar to yours too sticky but it soon lost that and went to basically how a cricut one goes after using it for a while...also the had a smell to them which must have been the type of adhesive they used
Cricut has been adding lines to some of my PNGs too, but when I print them out they print fine! No idea why the program shows it, but when I did a test print it was fine :)
I have a cricut too but I've always wondered how to do sticker sheets cut outs on there
I've done a whole tutorial on this (Its pretty old) but you can find it here: czcams.com/video/PcvhOn7pxGc/video.html
My cricut has been doing the same thing with the lines! They don’t print though thank goodness.
You are looking exceptionally pretty lately. How do you decide which stickers to make in house and which to have manufactured?
I usually get water proof vinyl and planner stickers outsourced and my sticker packs are made in house!
Hey can I ask how you found that 3d vacuum heat oven...I saw you comment on a video saying you had a issue with it a d I've not noticed you use one
I was thinking of getting one
Hello! WRT to the printing artifacts in cricut? try opening a brand new file and cut and paste in the same images. See if that does it. It seems that there is a corruption in the file, so maybe trying to open an new different file and then pasting into that will sort it out? Not sure, but it's worth a go?? Cheers!
I’ve been having issues with Cricut as well.
Omg I had those silly lines on my one too. For some reason when uploading from a Mac those lines appeared. My fix so far is uploading via iPad and then the file is fine. I hope the glitch is fixed now!
Hi Catherine, I love your content and want to start my own buisness like yours in future. What heat press do you have and where did you get it from? Much luv xx❤
Hi kat! I was wondering what printer do you use to print out your stickers? Or what would be the best printers to consider buying ?:) i heard epson ecotank is good but not sure what model i should go with. Really appreciate it if you can get back to me! Otherwise have a fantastic day❤🥺🥺 love your videos
❤❤ just a thought about your backing cards mayb print a blank square/spot where the stickers will be sitting that way you don’t use up ink printing that entire card pink ❤❤ could b a heart shape or something - I do a bit of printing and know ink running out is such a costly thing
Thats actually. a great idea!
you are looking fabulous, lady! I love your videos, I can only hope my brand new shop reaches your success. Can I ask what sticker paper you are using I used a glossy one and my cricut did not like it one bit :(
I am current;y trying a new Vinyl matte sticker! I havent decided on my facourite yet though, each printer/cricut always needs some different paper testing its a nightmare 🤣
I need Peppamint stickers xx
You are looking very beautiful!
It's hard to pick a favorite out of three packs. 😅
The cricuts sure worked overtime to get them all cut!
Sorry not much... Love them all. Have a great week
The bar appeared on my Cricut I mucked about for ages but it didnt come out when I printed
Cricut preview has done that with me before; shown something funky on it, but prints out fine. It’s so odd
My circuit does the same thing but it doesn’t show up once I print it.
hihihi im spotting my comment on the livestream
The same issue with Cricut happened to me a couple weeks ago. There were weird lines. I did the same as you…checked my file…deleted…redo. It STILL happened. I did a test print and the lines did NOT print. Just weird. Looking forward to upgrading to a more professional cutting machine soon.
so weird isnt it, it must be a weird glitch or something!
I've had that issue with Cricut before and it DID NOT actually print with the glitchy lines. It's annoying, but I've only seen it once.
I find that the actual Cricut light grip mat is also way too sticky when you use a brand new one. I always have to destickify it lol
lol me too, I usually slap it on dean or mikes top to make it less sticky 🤣
What printer are you using here?
My cricut does that too but it doesn’t print
hello could you make tote bags with zipper soon please
The glitchy line that cricut is putting on your screen wont print on the actual stickers.. I have had this happen several times lately and also sometimes when I go to the print screen dialogue box the design on my actual drawing is gone, I have the outline of the sticker showing but no details on the screen. I finally just printed one to see what would print and realized its just showing up on the screen but not what is actually printing.. So bizzare, I think its a problem with their program right now or something..
What happened to your fiddle leaf fig?! I see that cute little pot sans plant friend!
I don't know if you know this but circut mats are better investment because you can wash them and the stickiness lasts longer.
Puddin 🥰🥰🥰
I always sell my seconds unless it's a major bodgejob
Sometimes I don't align images on coasters correct...it's rare but happens and so there could be a thin white line of coaster where the image isn't on. Sometimes mugs also. I just charge alot less but I still always make my money back on the cost of the item and paper etc
I actually solved the issue where on print and cuts it would start cutting a bit off....as odd as it sounds it's if you get too much natural....or non-natural lighting getting in the way of the cricuts light it uses when it scans the black lines.
I could not believe it was this that caused me so much issues, so now depending on the room I am in I always leave the top lid down BUT if it's still too bright I have a price of material I drop over the top so it hangs over the front gap...just enough to cover but not so it touches the mat.....never had the issue since
By the way if I comment loads of times it's becaus einusually comment as I come up to each section of the video haha
I had issues with mugs but not smashed thankfully but where the outside coasting didn't quid cover the mug right....or the tops of the handles had a tabacco coloured stain on them like it had been missed when being sprayed a right pain...but I got a refund and to keep them so I sold them all as seconds so a bit cheaper but obv 100% profit....on the mug side of costs anyway
Increíble que preciosa te ves!
I hope you are okay? I just sensed you weren't quite your usual self :( I hope you aren't too stressed or burnt out - you are such a wonderfully kind human who gives so much to the craft community. Hope you get time to refill your cup and look after yourself. Thank you for another lovely vlog. Hope you're doing okay x
Aww thank you! heheh I did have a chest infection/cold toward the end of the video! That might be why! Other than that though I feel great hehe
