How to Make Customizable Monogram Envelope Stickers
LEARN TO MAKE EASY PRINT THEN CUT MONOGRAM STICKERS ON YOUR CRICUT CUTTING MACHINE
I have been thinking of ways to dress up the back of my envelopes.
Yes, I usually include a cutout on the envelope flap but what about those Cricut Joy envelopes or ones you use from the store?
These custom monogram stickers would make PERFECT envelope seals!
In this tutorial, I’ll give you my step by step instructions and tell you what materials I think work best when making this project.

Instructions
STEP 1 - DOWNLOAD THE SVG CUT FILE
Download the SVG Cut File for the Custom Monogram Stickers (#169) from The File Library. Get access by joining the club.
STEP 2 - UPLOAD THE SVG FILE TO CRICUT DESIGN SPACE
If you aren't familiar with uploading SVG files into Design Space, take a look at my quick and easy tutorial here. Using your smartphone? Click here for my step-by-step guide on uploading SVG files with the Cricut App.
STEP 3 - UNGROUP & CUSTOMIZE THE DESIGN
The file will upload into Cricut Design Space grouped together. You will want to hit the UNGROUP button to separate the monograms.
Select which letter you would like to use.
Highlight the remaining monograms and delete.
Add a new text box and type in your desired name.
Select a font of your choosing. I like TImes New Roman so I selected system fonts and searched Times New Roman.
Reduce the size of the text and place over the monogram. Try to center the name between the two lines of the design.
Highlight the entire design and select horizontally align from the align menu.
To change the color of the mongram, highlight the text and monogram design. NOTE: Do not select the white circle.
Select the color of your choice.
Now, highlight the entire design and select FLATTEN from the LAYERS panel.
You can resize the monogram if you wish by changing the size in the sizing menu. NOTE: Leave the proportions locked.
Duplicate the design as many times as you wish and then click the GREEN Make It button.
STEP 4 - MAKE YOUR MATERIAL SELECTIONS AND PREPARE YOUR MATS
You will see the print then cut layer for this project in the mat preview.
Click the CONTINUE button.
Click SEND TO PRINTER.
Make sure to leave the ADD BLEED option on and click PRINT.
Once printed, make your material selection. I am using Printable Sticker Paper.
Attach your material to the Cricut LightGrip Mat using the Cricut Brayer.
STEP 5 - LOADING YOUR MATS AND CUTTING YOUR MATERIALS
To load the mat into the machine, press the double arrows button. Do make sure that the mat is positioned under the mat guides.
You will know the machine is ready to cut your material when you see the flashing "C" button. Press that to start the cut.
Follow Design Space prompts.
Once the cut is complete, make sure to peel the mat away from the paper rather than the paper from the mat. This will prevent any curling of your design.
STEP 6 - YOUR STICKERS ARE READY!
Your stickers are now ready to use! Enjoy!

Hi, There’s no doubt that your web site might be
having browser compatibility problems. When I
look at your website in Safari, it looks fine but when opening in IE,
it’s got some overlapping issues. I simply wanted to give you a
quick heads up! Other than that, fantastic site!
