Use Crayola Pip Squeaks Skinnies Markers in Your Cricut
Why Would You Want These Markers?
You have more color options at less cost than the Cricut markers. Then you can make your Cricut draw and outline things for you.
The process is similar to using Cricut Markers in your Cricut, but you’ll using a pencil holder and Crayola Pip Squeaks Skinnies Markers.
UPDATE: Cricut has so many new marker options than when I originally wrote this post. I would just go with Cricut markers now.
My experience trying these in Cricut many years ago was this…
When I tried this Pip Squeak Marker method, i just could NOT get it to work. I had everything I needed, but honestly the result was not worth the trouble.

This is so exciting! Thank you for posting this! I would never have thought to use something other than the Cricut pens! I’m so excited!!
You’re so welcome! I can’t wait to try it myself! 😀
I just tried the Pip Squeeks. Here are a few tips: Get enough gel grips for each marker. They are kind of a
p.i.t.a. to put on. Put a piece of paper under the marker when you are inserting it into your Cricut so you don’t mark up the inside. I used high, med, and low pressures. They all seemed to look the same. I would use the lowest pressure you can to get the most life out of your Pip Squeek. Thank you for this post!! I’m going to Dollar Tree to see if they sell the gel grips, since I only have two of them and sixteen Pip Squeeks:)
Great Tips HarleyChickx2!! Thank you!! 🙂
i just purchased the mini gel pen holder (gellybug) of ebay but wished i would have seen this first might have been alittle cheaper. Where can you buy the pip squeek marker?

Hey Kim,
Don’t beat yourself up about buying the mini gel pen holder. When I tried this Pip Squeak Marker method, i just could NOT get it to work. I had everything I needed, but honestly the result was not worth the trouble. Maybe you’ll have better luck with it than I did. I hope so!! Let us all know if it works out for you. Here’s a link to the Crayola 64ct Pip-Squeaks Skinnies Markers . Here’s something that DID work! Check out this video I did about using the Silhouette QuicKutz pens. . They are fun and work out GREAT!
