Bonjour à toute l’équipe!
Nous rencontrons des difficultés avec la découpe avec le papier givré. Nous utilisons la machine cricut explore 3 avec une lame fine, nous avons sélectionner le papier cartonné léger et nous avons essayer toute les pressions et à chaque le papier se déchire. Nous avons un tapis standard grip qui est neuf !
Que doit t’on faire ??
Merci d’avance pour vos conseil !
Petit bonjour d’Antibes de la cote d’azur en France !
Have you watched this video yet? It will give you some good tips. https://liagriffith.com/craft-academy/cutting-frosted-paper-with-cricut/
when you download the svg file to print on your circuit the lines in-between the petals are cutting. I looked at the print and hand cut and it had it set up as perforated. How many other people did this happen to because you ruin the paper . Just thought that you would want to know.
Hi Mechell. The lines between are score lines and you will need to set those in Design Space. We do our best to help people understand how to use SVG files with our Craft Academy which is a free resource for all of our members. You can find these two videos that might be helpful in the future: https://liagriffith.com/craft-academy/how-to-use-files-cricut/ https://liagriffith.com/craft-academy/cutting-frosted-paper-with-cricut/
I am making you beautiful frosted poinsettia gift topper. I have mostly 8.5 x 11 inch paper and I can’t get this design to ungroup enough to cut out the smaller petals on one sheet and the large petals on another sheet. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks .
Hi Rebecca,
We have updated the file so you can now ungroup everything! 🙂
