AHA!!! Moment -- cricut tip

[123SA]

When I use the cricut, I tend to cut for an hour or so for multiple projects. Later, I end up spending way too much time trying to figure out which way the pieces go. Eureka!! It finally occured to me. When I take the pieces off the mat, I put a pencil mark on the back. No more turning the pieces over and over trying to figure out which is the front. I can't believe it took me almost a year to figure this out!

:rotfl2: I still haven't figured that out. If my paper wasn't textured or patterned on one side, it took me forever to figure out sometimes.

Thanks for the tip!

I had never thought of this either!! Thanks for the tip! I've put adhesive on the wrong *(!*%(*@# side more times than I can count!! ;)

Good tip... I'm so bad.. I have to piece them together as I go.. my kids think my scrap area is their domain.. I don't know how many pieces I have lost due to the kiddos taking over my turf!!!

Yep, I have "xyroned" many a wrong side. It's nice when someone thinks for us ;)
Great tip! I will add, on fonts in particular to also jot the "size" you cut in.
I've had times thanks to kiddos where I lose a letter. And can't remember if it was a 3" or 3 1/4 ".
