3D letters. I have been perfecting these over time and have made several versions. In this post I share all of my Design Space tutorials on setting these 3D letters and numbers up and resizing them as well as assembly.
Check out my other project posts for some specific numbers & letters I have created for parties/events/milestones.
Tips:
1️⃣- cut the dashed lines so that it’s easier to fold (as opposed to just debossing).
2️⃣- I still go back and forth on this ... but 110# paper is slightly easier to handle ... however you run the chance of the paper not cutting cleanly. And it dulls your blade faster (although good thing we can buy them super cheap on amazon haha).
Other Tools and Supplies used:
Cricut Maker & Cricut Design Space
Cardstock from 12x12 Cardstock
Hot Glue Gun
Bearly Art Glue
Double Sided Tape
Beads & Charms
