Checkout this helpful technique for creating “stencil-friendly” text to use when cutting out words for cards or creating stencils to make all sorts of DIY projects from etched glass, stenciled T-shirts, doormats, and more!
This is the exact technique that I used to create the teacher appreciation apple card available in our members-only SVG library.

Really helpful! Love this tutorial most for the learning how to use nodes!
Glad you found it helpful! Yes, it can be helpful to grasp how to use nodes when you see practical examples of why you’d want to edit them.
Nice video. On an Ariel Font for example how small can one cut out the letters? I am doing 1/4″ high X 2.5″ long for my husband’s train. Had a hard time getting the letters to stick to the transfer paper.
For small intricate fonts I recommend cutting on the washi sheet setting and then using the reverse weeding method. We go over both in our Mastering Your Cricut add-on course if you’re interested in learning these techniques: members.svgandme.com/member-myc
Thanks Erica – a little late responding – been busy with other stuff. I have a Silhouette Cameo 3. Is there a class for cutting on the washi sheet setting and then using the reverse weeding method?
