You can’t just go, oh, I decided, you know, like a day later to undo it. Now there’s things that you can do with slice and contour, but we’re not gonna cover those in today’s class. I don’t wanna overwhelm anybody. All right, so let’s go to my blog so I can get a file for you. So I have prepared a file for us to cut together tonight.
Cricut Design Space Settings Menu
It means to remove it from your canvas, but keep it in your copy buffer, just like on, you know, your word processor. I can copy it, I can duplicate it, and I can delete it. So I’m gonna just click that and I get two hearts. I like to use that menu a lot. You can, of course, just do a copy and paste instead of doing that duplicate.
Canvas Overview
We have our certificate layer here and then we have our frame. This is our frame for our certificate and we are ready to go. I always like to do a double-check, so here’s our layer, it’s set to cut. And here’s this layer, everything is attached.
Selecting Linetype
It’s really up to you what you wanna do. And the third way, of course, is right here. So you can click on this and you can get a third heart. So there’s three ways to duplicate, basically, but I only want two hearts.

So we need to attach it to this card so that, when we go to use our pen, it actually it goes onto our card itself, right? So all we’re gonna do is select all of this everything that we want to be attached, to stay together, and we’re going to click the attach button down here in the lower right. And now it’s all attached and ready to go. And just to make sure I’ve explained, I don’t remember if I explained this part yet, this is my third class today. Just by the way, if you ever need to edit your text, you can just double click on it and you get your edit box again and you can change whatever you want, but I don’t. And it is over here in the layers panel, you can see that it’s set to draw, which is what we want.
It makes a big difference since I started doing this. So when you download the file, when you click this link right here, it downloads the file so I’m gonna do that for you right now. And that’s what it did, it went there. So it just went right to my computer and let’s see, and we can go to my computer where it actually downloaded, but I just need to close one of these windows. And my Mac actually unzips it for me. I have it set, Chrome, actually, Google Chrome, which is what I’m using, I have it set to unzip all my files.
It’s important to note that this template only shows up on your Cricut Design Space canvas for designing. Templates can be useful, if you like them. If not, and you can hide and show it with the little eye icon right beside them at the bottom of the Layers Panel.
So it’s on my blog at jennifermaker.com. So you can just move it wherever you want. If your mat is getting old and busted and it’s, ’cause you’re always cut here, you can move it over here to extend the life of your mat, for example. Another thing that you can do is actually move things to the same mat. So we are ready to cut this so let’s go ahead and click Continue.
The file that was below it, that’s the one that has all the goodies in it. So if you double click on that one or just choose open, you will see that inside there are the files that we want, and you’re looking for the SVG file. Templates is a feature that’s only available on desktop and clicking on it lets you choose a template to help you design something. Once you choose a template, it will put the outline onto your canvas for you. You can even resize it to be a different size, if you want. Click in the size boxes at the top of the menu to resize it.
I actually now will put the SVG in the file name to help you find it. The actual video that this came from, this is in a series called jennifermaker.com/svgs. You can choose where you want it to go by clicking the browse button. And so it’s a good idea to pay attention to where it’s going so you don’t lose it. And then you go ahead and extract it, and it will look like this once it’s opened up. That Mac OSX folder you can ignore.
We flip our mat over onto our surface and we peel the mat away instead of the other way. Now, don’t just rip it off because you have a lot of little detail here. So I just go in here with my finger. If you wanna use your spatula tool, you can too, but it’s usually fine. You don’t wanna just rip it off because you might accidentally just, you know, rip it. It is supposed to be a nice, delicate piece.
Okay, now, if you don’t have Access, you’ll want free images. So now if we go to ownership and we click on that little plus symbol here, we can click on free and it shows us just free images. So there’s some calendars here. There’s actually a fair number of free things, and you can scroll through and you can make, they have some cute cards.
You can save things for offline to work without internet, but so I’m gonna select it here and change it to this. Let’s go ahead and change its style, because right now its style, and here’s the style menu, it’s set to regular. Well, regular is the cutting font.
These are actually really small, and it doesn’t matter. And let me zoom in so you can see that better. All right, so we’ve got it resized. You can also resize up here if you would like. All right, so I want to align this to be centered, so I’m gonna go to the alignment menu right here. And you’ll notice that once I’ve selected my text box, there’s this whole sub menu of things here.
And if we needed to ungroup them, we can just click ungroup and then we can move these things down. And let’s say I just really wanted the flower to be more like this and then we can group them again right here, or we can attach them. And then if we attach them, they’ll stay together on the canvas. Now, since they’re two layers, it’s really not. They’re gonna cut on different colors of paper, but sometimes it’s still useful to do that. If we welded them right now, what will happen is they become one image and they will change to be the same color.
The top of the screen will say “Untitled” and there are icons along the left side, top edge, and bottom right corner. And below that is a row called “My Projects.” This is where saved projects live in reverse chronological order. To continue working on a saved project, click on the project. To view all of your saved projects, click the “View All” link at the far right side of the screen. This final step before sending your project to your machine allows you to choose your load type, material size, mirror mats, and more.
