Using FontLab Pad To Create PERFECT text in Cricut Design Space

 There is a quicker and easier way to create text in Design Space Using FONTSLAB PAD

Download fontlab-pad you will be asked to send your email address and then you will receive the link. 



Design space does NOT display the fonts they way that the designer intended it to be, the spacing is very very frustrating and it takes a lot of time trying to get the text aligned properly. 



I have all my font folders on my Desktop as it makes it so much easier to access.
To do this just right click on your desktop and create new folder, The folder I am going to chose is Font Bundles Top Fonts 
I downloaded some folder Icons. .

Now go to www.Dafont.com and download MF I Love Glitter (for personal use ONLY)



Please remember this is for personal use only and you will require a licence if you intend to sell anything with this font on it.

Once the file is downloaded, extract it to your newly created folder.



I love FontLab Pad because you do not have to have the font installed at all. I have far too many fonts and it really slowed down my computer but using this software put a stop to that. 

Open FontLab Pad and simply drop in your Mf I Love Glitter Font

Create your text and then select File>Save As,(remembering where you saved it to because I always forget!!!)


Then go to Design space and upload the file.



This is what it now looks like, It really does make such a difference to ALL your projects. I never type anything in Design Space as it takes up far too much time trying to get it all spaced out properly.


I hope I have been able to explain clearly how to do this as it really is the best way to use text in Design space. ALWAYS ALWAYS REMEMBER TO WELD BEFORE CUTTING OR WRITING.

Flower Power 🥴 Cricut

Well, where do I start? Flowers, rolled flowers, layered flowers and felt flowers any flowers for that matter I hate them.😭 We see so many of the beautiful flowers  postsed on Facebook and some have even completed an entire wall full of the most beautiful flowers you have ever seen and it’s all done with cardstock! So after seeing lots of posts saying “not bad for my first attempt”  and the pictures looking like they have plucked it straight out Beachgrove garden I thought I can do that! I logged into Cricut Design Space and as I am subscribed to Cricut Acsess I selected the purple image bellow I was only messing around to see if I could actually produce anything that resembles a flower and duplicated only 4 petals to test it out. I made each petal a little smaller then cut. I used cheap card bought from Poundland and cut it on the cardboard + setting. I was really surprised by the results and I was now on mission to cut more. I tried the rolled flowers befo...
