Eyes for Cricut Disney Characters

[Pooh_Girl]

I need some help from all you Cricut geniuses!!! I have been doing my scrapbook from our trip in October 08 and it's really the first time I've used my Cricut for anything. I'm working with the Dreams Come True and Happily Ever After carts, and I'm having trouble with the eyes. I can't get them to turn out right. It looks pretty funny when Cinderella is crosseyed!!! Do you guys have any suggestions on what I can do to make this any easier??

For me those pieces are just too small!!! I end up using gel pens for the white and color parts of the eyes. Otherwise I have to make them pretty big depending on the character.

I end up just putting white paper behind the face, and then coloring an iris in with a pen or use a dab of Stickles. The glitter adds a little "life" to the face.

oh boy i had this very same issue last month. it stunk. i had the whole thing glued together except for the eyes, so i could not do as hope suggested and put the white behing. i will next time for sure!!!! i finally put it where it looked the best. it came out ok, but i did not really love it!

The white paper is a great idea!!! I would have never thought of that!!! Thanks so much. You guys are the best!!!
