Hey friends! It's now 2023 and I'm sharing a NEW CARD MAKING SERIES on the channel. I'd love for you to follow along. You can find the first episode in the series here: czcams.com/video/jbK17Sr2VMs/video.html In Episode 1 I cover how to find card designs in Cricut Design Space on desktop and in both apps. In Episode 2 I cover card kits, mats, how to change your blade, and we make our first card. In Episode 3 we'll add pens, markers and opaque pens (writing white on dark papers!). Then we'll move on to foil, embellishments, writing on the inside of the cards, envelopes, shaped cards, print then cut, photo cards and so much more. Hope you'll subscribe and I'll see you there! 💕

THANK YOU, THANK YOU. I have the Cricut Maker and wanted to buy the Joy to take on the road when I travel and your awesome video’s have convinced me to pick one up tomorrow. Please keep making Joy videos, love to see what your doing for the holidays.
You're going to love this little machine! Being able to grab it and go is so much easier. I was always afraid that I was going to damage my Maker carrying it around, but the Joy is so light and small it can go anywhere! 💕So glad you liked my video. There are definitely more Cricut Joy videos to come! Here's a link to my Joy Playlist 😍: czcams.com/play/PLYJAbsWmbUWYQvlfCj2d203lfVxeSlVbv.html
I just got a cricut explore air 2 and used your tutorial and had no trouble! So cool to see it design by itself :) especially the balloon that was cool lol
So glad you liked the tutorial and you're having fun with your new machine! 💕
Thank you so much! This was a great tutorial. My first project came out great. Will be watching all of your videos.
Hi Ernest! So glad to hear that your project came out great! And love that you'll be with me for more videos! Happy card making!! 💕
This is so neat! Just got my Joy and am loving it and playing.. watching all of your Joy videos! Great idea to be able to address and decorate the envelopes. I will save the project and then can always go back and just change the address of recipient.... and will save several with different images. Of course will have to get some colored pens for Christmas!
I love putting little messages on the envelopes. It's like the wrapping on a gift, especially for Christmas cards! 💕😊 Thanks so much for watching Marilyn!
I recently got Cricut Joy and just followed your instruction to create my mom’s birthday card beautifully. Thank you!
Hi Hiromi! So glad the video was helpful and I hope your mom loves her card!! 💕💕
This was a fun video. I actually made my first beautiful envelope for one of my Friends in Michigan and she LOVE it!🥰 I’m looking forward to trying the blue balloon you selected in this video. Thank you very much for your AWESOME Videos. I’m learning a lot!💃🏽
Oh yay Sharon! So glad the video helped and you made something lovely for your friend! 😊💕 Happy card making!!
That is really cool! I can't wait to start doing this!
I love putting little notes on my envelopes! 😊
Thank you so much!!
You're so welcome Ashley! Thanks for watching and happy card making!!
You are an amazing teacher. Your videos are so easy to understand. I just finished making a card and searched, How to write on envelopes with Cricut Joy and your video immediately popped up. Now off to your next video. Thank you!!
Oh thank you!! I'm so glad you liked the video and it helped you to make something fun! Sweet notes like yours keep me making videos! 💕😊
Thank you! This was so helpful
Thanks for watching Chelsea! 💕
That's fabulous thanks
So glad you liked it Dori! 💕 Thanks for watching and I hope you'll subscribe!
This a wonderful and very well presented video. Thank you.
Thanks so much Faye! So glad it was helpful. Happy card making!! 💕😊
You're the best!!! super nice explanation!! I'm mailing an envelope out and this will make it look super nice and not so bland lol
Im back ! lol I used a regular letter white envelope 4.15 x 9.5 and the black pen and it came out awesome! I drew on the from and on the back side on top of where the sticky part is, I placed a coupon code it for their next purchase :) that might be a video Idea for you since you have the color pens and theres a ton of people mailing out stickers and decals and to shop them is $.055 worth it when you can draw on the envelopes like this! thank you again
That's great Brian! So glad the video was helpful and that it's working for your business! 💕 And for the great video idea! 😊
Thank you,You help me a lot.
So glad the video helped! 💕Happy crafting!
WoW! Amazing! Never been a card person but since the Joy purchase I have changed! Sent 13 Mother’s Day card and hand wrote all the addresses. Now on to Father’s Day...will finish those by hand...but 4th of July - the mailman better be ready! Just wish there was a way to organize your projects in DS to keep all those addresses! Thank you so much!
Jo Ann - same here! I LOVE making cards now. As for the addresses, I agree. For now, I'm just saving each as a project. Maybe they'll come up with something soon! 💕
Great video, thank you!
Thanks for watching Cheryl! 💕
Thank you kindly
Thanks for watching! 💕
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for your cricut Joy tutorials. You are so informative, concise and a pleasure to watch. You have REALLY taught me about design space and writing with the joy. I am still having issues with the blade life. I mainly use the cricut box precut cards, so ??? Paper weight? card mat stickiness? I am still experimenting. I seem to make much SCRAP PAPER from my cards. Thanks again.
So glad the video was helpful and you liked watching! There is no greater compliment! 😍 As for blade life, I'm not sure. I've not switched blades yet, but it's likely getting close. I love this little machine! 💕😊Thank you again for watching and subscribing!
I’m still trying to do this to
Hey Bonnitta! Did you get it? Let me know if I can help. Merry Christmas! 😊🎄
Thanks so much for this information Kim. Just a note though, recipient's address should always be left justified or block style. It's due to the way the postal machines scan the addresses for quicker processing. I have been a card maker for years, however I did purchase the Cricut Joy three month's ago and I appreciate the simplicity and to the point manner in which you've done your tutorials. I appreciate you sharing.
So glad you like the video and thanks for the tip! I've always centered my handwritten ones and never thought about it before! Eeek! Happy crafting!
Great video. I'm new at this, so I appreciate your thorough instructions. Did a lot of pausing to get every step. Do you have a video on how to save your format?
Hey Kathy! So glad you like the video!! 💕As for your question, when you say "save your format" do you mean save your design in Cricut Design Space? If so, the "Save" button is in the top dark gray bar (if you're using a desktop). If you meant something else just let me know and I'll do my best to help! ☺
Hi Kim just found your channel so I have been binge watching you are so good at explaining things ! Just a question have you a video on making your own cards not the insert cards 😊
Hi Susie! So glad you like my videos! 😍 And yes, I do! Here you go: czcams.com/video/UFFIToNjFl8/video.html Happy crafting! 💕💕
I loved your video. It made it so much easy for a beginner like myself. I just have a question. Can you use any cricut pens or markers or does it have to be specifically for the cricut joy machine?
Hi Lourdes! So glad you like the video! 💕For the Joy machine, you need to use Joy pens. They're a bit smaller than the Explore and Maker pens. Happy crafting! 💕
This is a great video! I'm making an envelope for my daughter's birthday which is tomorrow. Never let it be said I do things on time! One question: when I hit "make it", the rectangle was on the other side of the mat from yours. Any ideas why?
Hey there CASongbird! Sorry. Not sure. Without seeing what you're seeing I'd hate to speculate. I hope it turned out great and your daughter's bday was wonderful! Happy card making! 😊💕
Hi Kim,
sorry to bother you! Just thought I'd let you know I figured it out! If you go into settings in Cricut and go to Units and click "imperial" instead of metric it will fix it. The print was really small when you use metric. When you click "imperial" the print goes to the measurements of the Cricut Card Mat.
Helen Collins
Oh my goodness! So glad you figured it out. And thank you for coming back and sharing the result. I'll have to remember that. I know you were so frustrated. 😬 Have a wonderful crafting day! 💕
Thanks for the video! My question is how to stop the sticky part of the flap (that you would lick) of the envelope from getting stuck under the card mat. I tried this the other day and it nearly ripped off because that got stuck!
Hey Morgan! I've not had that problem. Maybe place a small piece of wax paper between the envelope flap and the mat? Thanks so much for watching and I hope your envelopes turn out great! 😊💕
Thank you! I followed your direction to the dot but when I go to make it and I select the “on card mat “ I can only use 4.5x6.25 option I tried using it with that but it cut off bit of my image which is okay for my first time! Just wondering if I did something wrong, I did check if it was on imperial under settings and it is .
Hi Cindy! What size is your envelope? And when you say a bit, just like a small edge, or 1/2 inch? Depending on the envelope, you could shift it a bit up off the sticky part of the mat to get it to center. 😊
Hi, thanks so much for the video! My joy didn’t recognize the font you used (I was using the Cricut app). Do you have any idea why?
Hey Holly! I don’t recall the font name, but it might have been a font on my Mac. Maybe google it. I get a lot of free fonts! 😊 Thanks for watching! 💕
Can you do the envelop without the card Maker?
Elsie - sure! I might need to get busy on a video for that! 😍
Are there any free items to use with the write and draw. it seems that everything you used was for subscribed
Hi there! Cricut makes select Access designs free each week. If you're on their email list, you'll get an email each week. It usually varies, but sometimes you can get some drawing freebies! 😍
Kim I am having some problems as I am using my iPad but I think I finally got everything right and now it won’t let me click on making it on a card mate, oh my please figure out what I am doing wrong and please let me know.
Hi Deanna! I don't use my iPad much, but I do know they have a brand new Cricut app specifically for the Joy. One reason is because the other app doesn't work well with the Joy and the machine options are different. Do you have the new app? It's in the app store. It could be as simple as getting the new one. It's FREE. 💕
Hi Kim,
I want to thank you for trying to help me today. I did call Cricut Customer Service and they tried to help me out. I explained exactly what what you did and you're CZcams page & who you were and what you were trying to do. They also could not get it to work. I don't know what it is. I tried it on my laptop, my ipad, my desktop, my daughter's Apple macbook and it still would not work. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. The customer service rep @Cricut was so helpful, she said she was going to go check you out on CZcams to see what you were doing. I'm just going to keep playing with it and maybe it will trigger something to get it to work. Hopefully something will happen! Thanks again for all your help!!
Helen Collins
Oh Helen! I'm so sorry. I wish I could screenshare with you. Good idea on the video. Maybe if the rep watches it she can help. Thanks so much for watching and hang in there! 💕
She actually signed in to my Cricut account (I changed my password after she was done) and she even tried to do it. Nope. I don’t know why it’s doing what it’s doing. I wish I could screen share with you what it shows what I see. It’s not giving the dimensions of the 5.75 x 4.37 in the card mat. I’m going to keep playing with it. Hopefully something will trigger it to work.
Can you use envelopes that you can buy in the store
Absolutely Elizabeth! It's all about the size and the envelopes in the kit are standard sizes. Happy crafting! 💕
@@KimByers thank u
@@KimByers so it doesn't have to be a cricut envelope? It can be any envelope as long as the size fits? Would I also need a mat as well? Thank you. Sorry for the weird questions, there are just so many cricuts it confuses me on which is which
I don’t know whether you are using a MacBook, phone or iPad, but my screen definitely does not look anything like yours. I’ve tried to set this up on my MacBook, iPhone and iPad.
Nothing works. I’m so frustrated, I’m about to return the cricut joy and all of the materials I’ve bought.
So dang frustrated. 3 days of trying to address a simple envelope. Ugh.
Hey there Newbie 2015! I understand! This video is a few years old and Cricut Design Space has been updated a lot since. By the way, I was using a Mac desktop. The good news is, I created a new envelope video and several other card videos just over Christmas. If you've not returned it yet, join me for this one. czcams.com/video/blSrHGGdyps/video.html And here's my playlist for all Cricut card videos. czcams.com/play/PLYJAbsWmbUWZmt479KJbJUmZ1psfU_Rd9.html I know you'll love the Joy once you get started! Thanks so much for watching
I'm doing exactly what you're doing and it's not happening. I'm getting so frustrated. I did it once before, now it's not happening. One confused Cricut Joy user!
Oh Helen! I'm so sorry. What exactly isn't working? I can try to help. Sometimes if you've highlighted two items that are connected (look at the left panel to see) certain functions will gray out and be unavailable. Is a function hiding from you? Thanks for watching and let me know!
@@KimByers I’m working from a laptop, I don’t know if that’s the problem. It’s not recognizing the Joy Card Mat so it’s not showing the dimensions. It’s showing the regular mat even when I’m selecting the Joy Card Mat. I did at one time know how to do it but now I can’t get it to work again. Frustrated Cricut Joy. Don’t get me wrong, I love that I can do this. I wish I could send you a screen shot.
Hmmm... So you have the Joy selected as your machine (top right on CDS) and it doesn't give you the option for the Joy mat, or doesn't recognize when you feed it in? I've had a lot of success with the Cricut Help Desk. You might consider giving them a call over being frustrated. They typically answer and help really quickly. Sorry for your frustration!!!
@@KimByers
Kim, I have the Card Mat selected and it’s reading the green mat dimensions. I also have the Joy selected. At one time I was able to write inside the card & make Joy envelopes.
@Helen Collins I figured you did. :) I'm not sure how I can help on this one without being there with you. I think the Cricut Help Desk can do the "share screen" thing. I hope they can help you quickly so you can get back to your envelopes!
