Have you ever learned about how to color sync in Design Space?  It is one of the hidden buttons in Design Space that can really speed up your workflow and change the way you design.  Once I learned how to color sync in Design Space, I found that I was able to design quicker and easier and I think everyone needs to know how to use this handy tool!  Using color sync in Design Space is really useful when working with multiple layer cut files that contain more than one color.  Instead of manually coloring each layer, you can use the color sync in Design Space to quickly assign colors to specific layers and make quick work of it!

Curved Text Cups With Cricut Joy!

My girls are in love with these cups and I think every little one needs a fun cup with a curvy straw.  There is something so fun about sipping from a curvy straw.  As I placed their monogram with a flower design on this cup, I used the curved text feature to make the most out of my space and design when placing it on the cup lid.  Curved text cups are very beginner friendly and I hope you give it a try.  Be sure to check out the source list below the video to see what tools and materials were used to bring this look together.  Have fun!

I am a lover of saving my scrap pieces of vinyl and HTV because I always find that there are crafts when you need just a little piece of material.  It’s always so wonderful when you can reuse scrap pieces of material because, not only does it make me feel thrifty, but it gives life to something that would have been tossed in the trash.  Plus, crafting remains affordable when you save your scraps and intentionally get the most out of your material.  In this tutorial, we are going to be creating a HTV scraps shirt as we use scraps only to create a full sized shirt.  If you don’t save your scraps, I hope this tutorial encourages you to save your smaller pieces of material for future use because they definitely come in handy!

HTV Scraps Shirt : How To Make A Shirt With Scrap HTV Only!

I thought this design was really fun, as we are living through a stressful season with COVID-19.  I feel like this is a little mantra that I say to myself, as we enter the 5th month of quarantine and really loved the idea of making a HTV scraps shirt to bring this piece together.  When I say HTV scraps shirt, I mean that I only used scrap material to bring this together.  It took a little arranging, both on the cutting mat and on the shirt but I will show you how I made this possible in Design Space and then on my craft table.  Be sure to check out the source list below this video to see all the materials and tools used to bring this look together!

I quickly fell in love with Infusible Ink after trying it for the first time and now I find that I am always looking for a way to use it!  I absolutely love the final result and, unlike iron on, I love that it infuses into the shirt for a very clean and flat finish.  When Cricut released their new Infusible Ink blanks, I was first in line to purchase and this Infusible Ink Pillow Case was one of the first things I placed in my cart.  I love the idea of decorating pillow cases and find that it is not only a fun craft to do, but a really fun and easy way to decorate.  After seeing the release of the Infusible Ink pillow case, I also decided to get some Infusible Ink that has more natural tones that would coordinate better with how I decorate my home.  In this beginner tutorial, you will see how to decorate an Infusible Ink pillow case as we size and press a really beautiful design!
