Hi- loved your video and am planning on doing one for Valentine's day.. I printed my picture on vinyl sticker and put it on my cereal box. (I have the Cricut Air Explorer 2) I don't have 'cereal box' as an option so I configured the 'Kraft Board' to have the same pressure and repeat pass of 3x with deep blade.. I ran the cut so far, 3 x (each cutting 3x per pass) which means it was cut 9 times.. but still does not pierce through. :( Can anyone suggest annother setting? I really want this to work for me. Thank you all in advance for your tips and suggestions🙏❣

I've now cut my puzzle three times. It still hasn't cut all the way through, not even close. I'm using a cereal box (maybe mine is thicker than Rice Krispies), I've now set the cereal box setting to 350 and x9 and clicked more. Still didn't cut though. I have a brand new deep cut blade, first time I've used it. I'm cutting the same puzzle over and over at this point until it will finally cut through, then I'll print it out fresh. Gotta have something special to send the grandkids during this everyone-stay-inside time for the Covid-19 virus. It's a picture of them, and they'll love to get it in the mail if only I can get it to cut. Maybe a setting other than cereal box? What's a little thicker? I'm not experienced enough to figure it out yet. Thank you for whatever suggestions you may have!

I believe I am up to date with design space but the closest thing I have is Light Chipboard in either 0.37 or 0.55. Which would you suggest and would you still put it on 3x cutting with the deep cup blade? Any help you could offer would be great! Your tutorials are always very helpful and straight forward.

I see the Cereal box material setting on my Maker, not my Explore, so that explains that. On my Maker, the Cereal box settings are pressure of 248, cut 3x, deep-cut blade. So either make a new custom material setting for yourself with these settings, or try the light chipboard at .55. I recommend you do a test on a scrap piece of material before you try it with your good materials.

@JenniferMaker
3 ай бұрын
Yes, let the ink dry completely before handling it. jennifermaker.com/make-picture-puzzles-cricut/ Here are some tips to consider: 1. **Drying Time**: Yes, letting the ink dry completely before handling the vinyl sticker paper can help prevent smearing. Make sure to give it ample time to dry. 2. **Heat Press**: If you have access to a heat press, you might consider using it to help set the ink. For example, setting your heat press to around 375 degrees Fahrenheit for about 90 seconds could help secure the ink to the vinyl. 3. **Heat Resistant Tape**: Use heat resistant tape to secure your vinyl sticker paper in place if you decide to use a heat press. This will help prevent any shifting that could cause smearing. 4. **Burnishing**: After applying the vinyl sticker to your puzzle, use a scraper or your fingernail to burnish the seams thoroughly. This will help ensure that the vinyl adheres well and reduces the risk of smearing. 5. **Polyacrylic Coating**: Consider applying a polyacrylic coating to your vinyl sticker paper. This can help protect the ink and prevent smearing. Make sure to let it dry completely, at least an hour, before handling.

When using a cereal box, do the puzzle pieces seem to be too flimsy or not strong enough to hold up over time? Great video my wife and I use your tips on several things. Awesome!

It still will be flimsy with a cereal box.

Yes, the message can be customized to reflect a different message and change the size.

Sorry if i missed it in the video, is there a way to prevent the Cricut from tearing up the image while cutting the puzzle? It mainly happened on the knobs of the puzzle pieces.

Yes, be sure to do a test cut first before cutting the puzzle out.

followed step by step but something went wrong. When I printed the photo (first step in the Make it process) the lines for the puzzle printed on my picture. I found no way to turn this off. Then when I cut the puzzle the only thing that cut out was the outline, the actual pieces never cut. I am using the Maker. What is my problem?

Make sure the puzzle lines are set to cut and not draw. Click on the lines and change it in the operation bar.

You sure can, Megan! You could use either the cereal box or light chipboard. Light chipboard is under .37mm. We used a Deep-Point Blade, but make sure you watch the tutorial to see exactly how to do it! 😉🥰

I’m confused! 😆 First of all… FANTASTIC video, thank you! I’m confused about the photo. You’re sizing it on your Cricut software so how do you print it that same size to put on your cereal board?

Thank you for the fabulous video!! I was so excited to try this project and I was skeptical about the cereal box being thick enough but I was pleasantly surprised. The only thing is, when I took it off my mat and it had practically cut through the mat 😱maybe for next time I will change the setting to 2x instead of 3x? But thanks for the puzzle template!!

You could try enlarging the design so the pieces are the size you are wanting. Then you could take a square/rectangle the size you want the whole puzzle to be and then slice the pieces from the larger shape. 🥰

You can use it. The Knife Blade works with 2 mm Cricut chipboard, which is made of high-grade materials and specifically designed for use with the Knife Blade. The maximum size of cut for chipboard projects is 10.75" x 10.75" and the cut can't be smaller than 3/4".
