Thank you.
Great information!

That’s a lot to remember for a beginner but glad I can come back and watch as many times as I want. 🙂 Thank you!!!

This is great…but I want to add color to a drawing. (kind of like a coloring page)….and this is not helping me. Is there an easier way of doing it?

Absolutely fabulous. How do I do multicolors on my scanncut? – like the example above with the first word on a different color? Can you please direct me to a “place” where I can be instructed on how to do it with vinyl. Someone asked me to do a logo. But a part of the logo is like the first word… Please remember that I am a beginner. Lately I have been to much on the PC with my lessons and I don’t do the practical stuff!

Thank you 🙂

This is great! Thank you!

That was great!

That’s an amazing tutorial thanks

Great Tutorial Thank you. Glad I have your easy tutorials to help me tackle Inkscape.

I love this, my mom wants me to make one for her wall with names in line

I am really having a hard time trying to do the path and difference. It cuts only the bottom part. Please Help!

Hi, I am having challenges in try to get the words cut out in my infinity symbol. Not sure what I am doing wrong. I have watched the video more then a haft a dozen times. Lol I have even pulled up two screens side by side to go through it. It just want cut for me. I think that last step is hard. Any suggestions.

I love this tutorial. I had wondered how to do this and now I can give it a try!

Wow! That is awesome!

I just found this. Awesome tutorial. Thank you so much.

Awesome tutorial. Thank you so much.

I love it! Just made myself the cutest shirt!

You have great common examples of what I would like to make. And of course, that inspires because when we can “immediately” make some of the things we love first, it takes more of the “quit because I can’t do it” out of the equation.

I am trying to make something similar to this, I am having trouble with getting the “path to stoke” to work and get the outlines to work, also I cannot get the stroke to decrease on the other layer. Any help is welcomed. 🙂

I have the same issue as Christina above. The “stroke to path” is not giving an outline. The videos would also be great if you used a ‘custom cursor’ or something similar. I have to continuously repeat sections because you move the mouse too fast over what you are doing.

WoW! Thanks.

This is extremely helpful! Thank you!

To be honest. I’ve watched video after video on YouTube as a newbie over a month before really understandinteresting. This is so awesome. I’m such a ditz, as I thought clicking on templates ment like to cut. So, I was like duh… tshirt image duh. What is the best but good deal to buy your vinyl? @erica

@pjbmom So glad to hear you’re enjoying the course! I think 651vinyl.com and Swing Design are both suppliers with good deals on vinyl you may want to check out.

@erica, you mentioned being an annual member a couple times in this video. I thought there was just one membership with the one time payment. Did I miss something?

I wondered if that might be the case but wasn’t sure. Thank you! =)

So if we paid the $167 or whatever it was we are lifetime members?

When you mark complete are you allowed to return to that module?

@Erica

Thank you, for clearing that up about membership. I had the same question about the after I heard you say annual.

Thank you so much for this course newbie to crafting & lots beginning to make sense now made so many mistakes but loving every minute feel i am on the road to something beautiful… Thank you x

I just Join group on Monday. I am questioning what you mean you can complete one of your courses. I thought it is a one time payment. Also I received the Free Fonts and Graphic with the How to create using inkscape when merchanted with the Webinar.Where are they located?

I need to know how to put SVG and Me on my desk top so I can get to it quicker. Thanks ,Cindilou

The Design for the different sizes of shirts for Circuit does not load. I have tried several times and it said error.
that is 113142850. So I don’t know it that is on your side or circuit design side that the error message keeps coming up.

@erica I have finished first corurse, and I don’t see a completed course option?

Joined yesterday and excited to get started. Installed Inkscape successfully in my MacBook (little more challenging the I thought it would be ) and was successful in replicating the knockout design! So exciting. Haven’t gotten this far in the past 3 weeks, but had a design in a couple of hours after watching your webinar.

One question, it appears the shortcuts you mention don’t work on the Mac. Found the options in the menus. Do you have a reference sir shortcuts tomuse on the Mac, or will the course lessons go over these… guess I should just start and find out)

Erica I joined yesterday but is the membership lifetime or annual

I worked for about 25 years in IT, as a programmer and project manger. So I know software and generally can dig in a learn most anything on my own. But for some reason, Inkscape intimidated me.

I have just finished the first two units and already am feeling more confident. I cannot wait to get further in the class. Thank you for presenting this and helping me on my journey.

Love my cutting machines, have had inkscape on my computer for a while used it a little. I would really like to see the tutorial you did yesterday with the names. I have installed I love glitter on my computer can see the font in Silhouette and Design Space but not in Inkscape.

Im finally opening up the course and look forward to taking this course.. I may end up watching a lesson more than once to actually know what I’m doing.. and thank you for the great tip – I will have my lap top open for the lessons and Inkscape open on my computer to do lessons… I look forward to starting this journey with you – @erica

I am having trouble installing Inkscape. My Mac Air has OS 10.13, is that OK for Inkscape 1.0?

At first, I was praying I made the right decision to pay for the membership because I have seen so many advertisements for cheat sheet downloads for the Cricut and YouTube videos on how to do this and that on the Cricut. I wanted to learn how to make my own graphics, so I wouldn’t have to pay for it or depend on the free SVGs that aren’t really what I want. I am terrible at drawing, but the webinar of your explanation on how to create your own SVG made me feel like I could do it. Also one of the quotes that you used is something I have posted in my classroom for many years and use as a tag line on my work email. Thay was a sign for me to try it. After downloading the workbook, viewing a few of the courses, and following the directions, I will be telling everyone and anyone that is a beginner with their Cricut (like me) to buy the membership. As an educator of more than 20+ years, taking technology classes has always been challenging because those who teach it fail to provide concise instructions at the right pace. However, I not only found the instructions doable and had absolutely no frustration at any time during the courses I already viewed, I wished that you taught all of my technology classes. You are an amazing teacher and have made all of this understandable! Watching this video on opening the membership portal with the course and Inkscape side by side is what I did due to my previous learning experience with instructional websites. The fact that you are telling your members all these tips makes you a legit teacher who actually wants her members to succeed, and I am truly glad I paid for the membership. I am going to use what I learn to make fantastic bulletin boards and educational posters if and when we ever get back to the classroom. If anything, I will be able to make Christmas gifts. Keep up the great work!

I bought the Silhouette Cameo and bought a heat press. Now I need to use it! Yesterday I signed up for SVG & Me so hopefully you can teach an old dog new tricks. After sleeping on it, did I make a mistake buying the Cameo? Will I be able to do things on it learning from your program? You are such a good; calm teacher I hope this works.

I have used Inscape for years to make SVG’s but joined this membership to see what additional things I might learn…only problem I foresee is the difference when they are completed. I have been using SCAL (Sure Cuts A Lot 1 then upgraded to 2) since the very beginning and chose not to use Design program. The result is not sure if cutting layers will work unless separated into different pages in SCAL. Since I don’t know anything about the Design program I might have misconstrued impressions on how it works. Is anyone else using SCAL?

I started the Inkscape course yesterday and can’t wait to get back to it. Although I’ve been using Design Space for quite some time, I will complete that course, as well, because I’m sure I don’t know all the tricks yet. Erica is the best instructor that I’ve had.

So glad to read that the annual membership is now a lifetime one. When I first heard that I wondered what the difference was. Feeling better now and can’t wait to get started. Thank you!

I just started the Inkscape courses today and I was kind of mad when I had to stop to go make supper and do some other things. Lol
In just the few lessons I have watched I have learned more in this short amount of time vs the hours of youtube and other lessons. You are so easy to follow, I play back something if I don’t get it right away. I am very excited to keep learning.

Hi Erica,
I watch you talk about inkscape and I hope it will help me in svg. I am looking forward to start the course. So thank you so much I know I am going to love it.

I think I’m going to be VERY HAPPY with these courses. I’ve already learned a couple things about DS that I didn’t realize I could do.

Am so glad I joint can not wait to get started

Do you have a tutorial or course on turning other files into svgs, or pngs. I used to use corel draw or photo and now that no longer works. I often will find a free graphic i want to use in Design Space and add type to the image, but for some reason that doesn’t seem to work any longer. any ideas

Really helpful! Love this tutorial most for the learning how to use nodes!

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.

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?

Wrote down notes. Thanks again. Question, What if you only wanted 2 sticker shapes out of the sheet…repeated or something of that nature?

Good question. You could just ungroup then delete everything except the ones you want. Select each shape with background (if you want the white outline) and click flatten. Then, when you go to make it, you can increase the project copies in the upper left corner (and press apply) and it should duplicate it as many times as will fit on the sheet.

Would I use the same settings for stickers if I am using window cling vinyl on my Maker?

Erica
What paper do I load on my cricut mat to make stickers?

How do I do this on the Cameo 4?

That was very helpful. THANK YOU!!

Would these same procedures need to be followed if using the Brother Scan and Cut? Thank you.

Learned something new. Thank you!

Thank you. I took notes 🙂 Stupid question, what do you mean when you say ”make sure you attach it, before clicking make it?” I am sure I do it already but want to make sure. Thanks again, Erica . Also how do you become lifetime member?

I have been trying to unzip the download and I cannot get it to work. I have a pc with windows 10, can you give me a clue of what I am doing wrong. Thanks in advance.

I absolutely love the training. I have 8 adults and 21 grandkids to make Christmas gifts for.
Thank you so very much!!

Thank you for this!

Thank you for all of your help! You keep me inspired!

great video ..easy instructions … I’m super excited to make these great Items.

I have a question, I was wondering are the stickers and 3D designs consider commercial use images also?

Thank you! It was very helpful. I am still going through Inkscape learning, had to take a break with 2 grandkids here for another week. Looking forward to getting back into it when they leave. So glad I joined this group.

I just love all your tutorials…..clear, simple and easy to follow instructions!

Love the videos. Are you using a Mac or PC

I am learning so much thank you for having SVG and me. Can you tell me if I am a lifetime member because I know I’m sure going to need all you great info. You are awesome..

I just joined about a week ago! I have learned so much and my frustration level before starting your course has disappeared. Now it’s enjoyable to learn with your am step by step with video tutorials. So glad I made the investment in
myself.
