Using a Cricut to Journal
Hi everyone 😄
I have a Cricut Maker 4. I also have the Crictu 0.4 Black Tip Pen, or a Universal Pen Adaptor. I have a light grip and a standard grip mat.
I have a dream. I love to journal but I don't love my handwriting. It's something that actually prevents me from journaling. So, I'd like to use my Cricut to give the illusion of handwritten journal entries (even though they would be my typed entries just written by my Cricut.
I've been playing and testing with what this looks like but my flow seems chunky and I don't think I've quite mastered the art yet.
The goal is to have an A5 (1/2 letter) sized journal. I'd have loose leaf sheets that I would feed the Cricut each day to submit my journal entries to. I would prefer a font that feels more natural, and less bubble writing.
I'm down to invest in things if necessary too.
My questions are as follows:
- Do people have pen recommendations?
- Do people have paper recommendations?
- Do people have font or setting recommendations?
- Do people have any other general suggestions for success?
