How to Create Images for Cricut: Quick and Easy Guide

If you are a regular Cricut user, you know how important the Design Space app is for your DIY projects. One of its key features is the ability to create your own images. To use this feature, you need to know how to create images for Cricut.

If you do not know how to make images in the Cricut software, don’t worry! This guide will cover everything you need to know to create your own images in Design Space. You will find 8 simple steps to follow, but first, I am going to explain how to prepare for the process.

Get Ready for Making Your Own Images in Cricut Design Space

Before you learn how to create images for Cricut, you should know what you have to do before making images. You can create images on the app, and to use the app on your operating system, you will need to do certain things.

You will need to download the software to your mobile phone or computer. It is the Cricut app that allows you to create images for your DIY projects. After downloading the app, you will need to log in with your account because Cricut needs an account for operating your Cricut machines. After creating your Cricut ID, you can now start the process of making images in the Design Space.

How to Create Images for Cricut: 8 Simple Steps

To make an image in your software, you will have to follow some basic steps. I am going to write down all of them one by one, and you can easily create images following them.

Step 1: Open Design Space on Your Device

To start creating images, open the Design Space and click on the New Project section. A blank canvas will appear on the screen. You can either upload a ready-made PNG file or start creating your own. For this project, a Free Sunflower SVG from the Design Bundles will be used.

Step 2: Upload Your Image on Canvas

Once you have opened the canvas, you have to upload the image. You should click on Upload to start uploading the image and select it from your computer. Later, you will turn the image into multiple layers. After uploading the image, you will need to select the Complex option, and then you have to click on the Continue button.

Step 3: Use the Magic Wand Tool to Separate Image

In order to learn how to create images for Cricut, you have to use the Magic Wand tool afterward. This tool will help you click on the individual pieces of the image after splitting it into different layers and then remove them. You can keep one color at once. As you can see in the image, you can click any portion and then remove it.

Step 4: Select the Cut Image Option

Now, you will have to select the Cut Image option. After that, you have to upload the image again.

Step 5: Upload the File Again

You will have to upload the image again. To do this, you must select the Upload Image button from the files again. After that, select Complex and hit Continue again.

Steps 3-5 need to be done repeatedly until all the colors you want are saved in separate layered cut file images.

Step 6: Insert All the Images

Now that you have all the images separated into multiple layers, you can insert them by clicking on each file. This will bring all the layers into your beautiful project.

Next, all the images are in the software. If some files appear to be very large, you will have to scale them down. A change in height and width will help.

Step 7: Change the Color of Each Layer

You can change the color of the layers if you want. However, this is very optional and depends on you whether you want it or not. To change color, select a layer, go to the operation menu, and click on the black square. From there, select the color you wish. Repeat the process for each layer.

Step 8: Click on the Make It Button

Finally, you can cut each layer individually on a separate mat. It allows you to cut all the different colored pieces on various materials. You just have to put the cardstock or vinyl on a cutting mat and cut it on the image.

Conclusion

You read the whole blog, and now you know how to create images for Cricut. It is an excellent thing that you can do in the Design Space app. By creating images, you can craft beautiful projects. To do this, you will need a device and the software on it. You can follow all the steps that I have written above in this post one by one. Once you are done with that, you can cut all those newly created images on your machine individually on different colored materials, and a beautiful image will be created.

It's August 21 which means it's Fan Fiction Writer's Appreciation Day! Fanfic is the lifeblood of any fandom and I hope all writers know how appreciated they are!

To celebrate, @renegadeguild ran an event whereby fan binders bound a work of fanfiction to celebrate. This year I chose Wishing on Runway Lights by inflight_gremlin.

This story is a beautiful love story in the mdzs fandom about a flight attendant, a stranded child, and the child's worried dad all snowed in and trapped during a winter storm. I chose it as my FFWAD project simply because I enjoyed the story, it made me smile and I thought it was well written and perfectly romantic. More details about the binding itself below the cut.

The fic was nearly 45K words long and with appendices the total page count was 221.

Text font: Sabon Next LT

Chapter headings/graphics: Canva

Design: Inflight_gremlin is an incredible artist in addition to being a fanfic writer so I took one of her drawings, created a silhouette in Canva, and then imported it into Cricut Design Space. The images and text were cut from silver HTV vinyl applied to ice blue bookcloth. The snowflakes were cut from iridescent htv using a punch and then applied.

Endpapers were purchased from Michael's and endbands were from my stash.

The typset was done in Word and took me way longer than it should have. I had some issues with the clarity of images in my test prints and had to start over and redo it. I am very happy with the result, however!

Hi, just wanted to say your binding of "Faces In The Dust" looks gorgeous!!! Could I ask, how did you make the title + decoration and apply it to the front cover? :O

Hello! The cover designs are cut from vinyl with a cricut machine. In this book's case I used permanent vinyl. Which is essentially very sticky vinyl. There is also HTV(heat transfer vinyl) which you cut out and then adhere to the material via heat (such as an iron). I tend to use cricut to design and then cut most of my covers. The cricut is a cutting (and other things) machine that has a digital design space I run on the computer to help me design covers.

I typically like to start by 'making the case' out of colored blocks in the space that are the size of my actual cover so I can know what things will look like when I put it all together. I also color my items to match as close as possible to the colors I plan to cut them from as well. I mostly do this because I have aphantasia so I need the literal imagery in order to see what the design will look like. These steps are by no means necessary and if you can visualize what you want then you can just add the images/text in however you like.

The vinyl is a plastic-y sheet or roll of vinyl in a given color. Because I wanted to have the flowers be one color(lavender) and the stem (green) another I needed to cut two sections and take the parts I wanted from each. I could have also edited the images so that each of the two only had the parts I wanted from it so it would only cut them. But it wasn't that much of a difference and if I just copy pasted a second one of the same image and changed the color then I would know they were the same size and everything would fit together.

Once the design is done I move to the cutting phase. The colors you pick determine which pieces are cut together.

You load each sheet of vinyl in on a mat and it cuts the image out. When it is done you cut out around the section you just cut the image on and then use tweezers to remove the vinyl you aren't using around the image. This is called weeding. In the flowers & stem's case I also then used an exacto blade to cut off the flower heads from each of the cut outs so I could combine the two colors of vinyl to create my final version of the image.

Once it is all weeded you are ready to transfer it to the book case. You do this with transfer tape. It is a clear plastic sticky sheet that you place on your vinyl to 'pick it up' off of the backing it started out on.

Again in this instance to combine the colors I picked up the green vinyl on the tape and then lined up the purple flowers and pressed down to get them stuck to the tape as well. With it all now collected I placed the transfer tape on my book and pressed the vinyl into the case of the book. Smoothing it down with my bonefolder or anything else that helps make sure it is flat so it is really adhered and there are no air bubbles.

I do the same with all the titling and ta-da! A Book!

There are tons of ways you can title/design your book covers. I just got my hands on foil quills this past weekend so I hope to try making a cover with them in the not too distance future. Some folks I know use paint pens, or cut out stencils and use regular paint, or just free hand paint if you want to show off your skills of an artist. Hope this was helpful and not too rambling. Sorry I don't have pictures for all the steps, I can make a point to take pictures the next time I make a cover in cricut if that is something folks would want to have. Feel free to reach out if you have any more questions.

Today is a day for books. Or one book, anyway. This is Close to Home, So Far Away, a Good Omens fic by Mercury Starlight. It's a memory loss/alteration fic with a lot of angst (for real, mind the tags if you decide to give this one a try) but oh my gosh, it's wonderful. Tasty tasty angst. It is unfinished but don't let that deter you, the biggest angstiest plotline is resolved enough to be satisfying. The last update was in 2021, so it's a pre-season 2 kind of angst instead of the new canon flavor.

I love the way the cover came out on this one. It's gold HTV on dark green book cloth and I'm in love with the simplicity. It reminds me of the very pretty books I find in used book stores sometimes, that have enchanting covers but are often either impenetrable to read, very fragile, or out of my budget. But this one is none of those things, it's exactly as compelling as its cover makes it seem. There were originally supposed to be more gold swirly bits in the corners but I made the lines too thin and my cricut ate them. I thought about re-cutting them but I liked the way it looked without them so much I just left them off.

More pics under the cut!

This is a coptic binding, which is my preferred style for unfinished fics. The spine has no covering and no glue, so technically if the author decides to update it again I can cut the stitching, add more pages, and re-stitch for an updated book without having to make an entirely new one. The downside is that glue can help mitigate swell at the spine, and without it I had issues. I squished this thing for days, it got very flat, and it fluffed right back up again after stitching. The book is about 250 pages and I think that's the upper limit using the methods and materials I have. I want to try it again with short grain paper and see if that helps.

Downside to coptic binds: you can see right through them in between signatures, and when you're used to other types of books it sends a panicked "my book is broken!" signal to the brain.

Upside to coptic binds: pretty colorful stitches down the center of each signature. I love how the bronze looks with the green cover and the shiny cover lining. Because there's no glue in the text block you can't do regular endpapers here. I think this is called a doublure.

Title page, first chapter, and a new thing I tried. All the art assets came from rawpixel. The thing on the first chapter page is the extra swirly bit that was supposed to go on the cover. I think I made it too big here? I'm not sure. Graphic design is not my passion and I am learning it only reluctantly XD The last image is unique to this fic. There's a reference to a specific form in the story, which the author created and linked as a PDF, and I really wanted to include it, so I put it in an appendix at the end. I really like having it there and plan to incorporate more stuff like it in future binds, if I can.

I think that's it for this bind! I hope you like it, @yeswevegotavideo!

So I painted my yoga mat... I'm including the process and credits below the cut.

So, I have been wanting a cork yoga mat for a while. Do I need one? No. Will I pick up yoga again for a month and then quit? Hopefully not, but likely yes.

Every time I get back into yoga, I start looking at cork yoga mats because they're grippier and also very very pretty. The only problem is... they are friggin' expensive.

I first was attracted to cork yoga mats because of some of the really amazing designs, but I can't afford this shit. Instead, I settled for a cheaper cork yoga mat that is plain, and I thought that if I saved up enough money and still cared about yoga enough to buy a fancy one, I would.

But then I got to thinking... could I paint my yoga mat? And the answer is yes, yes I can.

I originally got the idea when I read online of other people doing this to their rubber and PVC mats, so you do not need a cork mat to do this!

Buying the Mat

Even an inexpensive cork yoga mat is still far more than I've ever spent on one before, so I had to choose wisely. I ended up choosing the Gaiman cork yoga mat, which is about 5mm in thickness. It's roughly 68 x 24 inches. One thing I had read is that cork mats can get quite heavy, but this one is pretty lightweight while still being cushy. I was really tempted to use it right away, but I didn't want it to get dirty or oily before I painted it.

The Design

I am not an artist. I cannot draw well enough to freehand something confidently. What I do have is a Cricut Maker. If you don't know what a Cricut Maker is, it's an ill-advised purchase that I got secondhand and is actively ruining my budget. Depending on the model, it can cut out designs on a variety of materials, such as vinyl or infusible ink and can even tool leather. I used cardstock for this project to cut out stencils.

There are many free SVG templates out there as well as images created by other Cricut Makers that are only .99 each. There are many, many other places where you can purchase designs as well, or you can create your own! I am not talented enough to create my own design.

I tried several free SVGs, didn't like them, and then stumbled on this on Design Space, the Circut Maker program/shop. To quote Macklemore, "But shit, it was 99 cents!"

The image was designed by GlamSVG by Emylia and the inspiration came from an embroidery pattern by Emily June, which you can find HERE. I went through an embroidery phase during quarantine, and I have mine hung on the wall. I look at it daily.

I had to resize this image to fit my yoga mat, which ended up being 24 x 36". Because I cut the stencil out of cardstock, I had to segment everything into 8.5x11 pieces, cut, weed, and then piece it all back together on the mat. Once I had all the pieces, I stuck them to transfer paper to keep the floating segments in place. I organized and labeled everything so I could put it back together again easily. It looked like this:

Once it was assembled, I sprayed the backs with temporary adhesive so the stencils would stay down. I removed the transfer paper and began painting the outline. I did end up losing a couple of the floating pieces (see the letter O and the leaf on the far right side), so I had to freehand some of it. Overall, the stencil turned out great!

I had a variety of success with the temporary adhesive. Because I bought a more inexpensive mat, I soon discovered how not durable it is. The 'temporary' adhesive pulled up small pieces of cork after I removed the stencil. This was partially my fault, since I didn't pull up the stencil as I went. Still, there were pieces that were going to lift anyway. This revealed that the cork is only one layer, but fortunately, each piece of cork that lifted was quite small and unnoticeable, and the thread behind it matched in color. It wasn't ideal, but I could live with it.

Some of the cardstock became permanent fixtures on the mat, which I then had to paint over. Also, some of the stencil didn't stick at all, so I had minor bleed through. Problems all around! But it still turned out nicely!

I need to preface that I have never painted anything before. Well, that's a lie. I've painted a wall, and six years ago I had a Bob Ross themed birthday party. The SO, however, is the son of an artist and taught me about mixing acrylic. His first tip was to test out colors. I used Paint.Net and came up with this mock-up:

I knew I wanted the heart anatomy to be shades of red, so that was easy. The flowers were harder. I tried my favorite colors, like yellow and purple, but it didn't sit right visually. I turned to Canva Color Wheel to help me find complementary colors to the shades of red I wanted to use. That's how I came up with the pretty blues. To mix the colors, I used ColorHexa to show me the percentage of CYMK I needed.

Here are some progress shots:

I'm super happy with how it turned out! My color mixing didn't turn out exactly like the mock up, but I love the results. The last step was to let it dry for at least 48 hours. Then I set it with Mod Podge Acrylic Sealer.

I chose Mod Podge since it's non-toxic, and I will be putting my face on it. Also, my dogs walk on it while I do yoga. They think it belongs to them. :) Knowing now that there is only 1 layer of cork, I do worry how it'll hold up to dog nails over time.

Lastly, the real test was to see if it would roll, and it does! So now I just need a yoga strap, and I'm good to go!

3 Beautiful Ways to Use Pressed and Dried Flowers | DIY Crafts You’ll Actually Keep!

I started working with dried flowers and pressed botanicals a few years ago, and it has taught me a few things.

Delicate dried flowers can burn or disintegrate in epoxy resin.

Glossy Mod Podge however much we love it, can make you cry (and even ruin your floral project).

Depending on your project, pressed flowers MUST be chosen as carefully as you would choose fabric, paper, or paint colors.

So how can you still work with these lovely mediums and create long lasting, archival art that you can be proud of? Read more to learn about 3 of the most botanical-friendly crafts.

Framed Glass Art

What you’ll need:

Double sided glass frame. (any size)I buy mine on Aliexpress or Amazon.

Clear glue, glossy mod podge, or a tape runner.

Pressed flowers

Scissors

How to make it:

Start by selecting your botanical specimens and arranging them in your frame. Use scissors to trim and refine your arrangement until it is to your liking.

Remove all of the flowers, and strategically place dots of clear glue on the inner glass. Wait until your glue becomes tacky. The time will depend on the type of glue that you’re using.

Tip: Test out the cure time by placing a few different sized glue dots on a plastic surface. See how long it takes for the glue to become more viscous and less runny.

Place the flowers onto the glass. Make sure to tack down all specimens with glue until they’re difficult to move. Allow the glue to dry completely before closing the glass frame.

Once dry, display your beautiful arrangement!

I love making smaller arrangements for office spaces and display shelves. These also make adorable secondary gifts in care packages.

Glass offers a more eco-friendly alternative to epoxy resin. Though I love working with resin, I’ve started to become more conscious and selective of my usage to creation ratio.

2. Floral Bookmarks

What you’ll need:

Pressed flowers. Preferably long stem flowers that press very flat such as fleabane and daisies. You can also use small flowers without stems.

Self or thermal laminating sheets.

Thermal laminator. (If using thermal lamination)

Scissors

Cricut Cutting Machine (highly recommended for a cleaner result) However, you can also create your own frames. Simply use two gift tags or rectangular pieces of paper. Measure and cut out another rectangle of your preferred size in the center of your paper. Use an X-Acto knife to make the cut out.

Kraft paper cardstock

Glue stick, or my personal recommendation, Kuretake Glue Pens. They will make less of a mess, and create a longer lasting bond on kraft paper.

How to make it:

If using a Cricut machine, start a new project in Cricut Design Space.

Search for “bookmark frame” in the “images” section.

Select a design you like the shape of. You can also create your own by “slicing” new shapes into existing templates.

Resize your design. Choose whatever size will accommodate the shape of your flowers.

Cut out your frames out on kraft paper.

Once you’ve cut out your design, remove half of the frames from the mat. Leave the other half on the mat. This will make keeping them flat easier once you’re ready to assemble everything.

Laminate your flowers. Be sure to use your frame as a guide to arrange them within the window. Leave an inch of space between each arrangement for cutting if you’re making more than one bookmark.

Cut around the flowers, leaving a bit of allowance for gluing them onto the frame. I never measure like I should. Just use the frame as guide to avoid cutting off too much laminating plastic. We will hide the ugly jagged cutting job later. 😅

Return to the mat and apply a generous layer of Kuretake glue to the entire surface of the frames still stuck to the Cricut mat.

Carefully place the laminated floral arrangement on the frame.

Apply another layer of glue around the edges of the lamination, and also on the other frame.

Place the second frame over one of the mat frames, and press down firmly. Tip: You can also place a book on top to keep them flat.

Let your bookmarks dry for about 20 minutes before adding your embellishments. I love using key charms, grommets, ribbons, or tassels.

Check out my inspo photos below! Get creative with decorating.

3. UV Resin Pendants

Before I started working with UV resin, I was told that it isn’t light fast. Which is true for most resins on the market. I’ve also heard that it yellows over time and that the UV light burns flowers.

These are all things that I’ve experienced working with flowers in UV resin. However, I’ve managed to make projects that have stayed glossy, clear, and beautiful for over 2 years now, and I want to share my tips and tricks!

Tip #1: USE a high quality UV resin such as the one from Counter Culture DIY.

Tip #2: AVOID using delicate flowers such as forget-me-nots, hydrangeas, larkspur, etc. If the petals are thin and delicate, they WILL become distorted or burn. Think florets, spaced petals, and small leaves.

Tip #3: USE opaque, strong, and VERY flat flowers such as pressed Violets, Chamomile, Fleabane daisies, Rosettes, Queen Anne’s Lace, and Baby’s Breath.

Tip #4: AVOID flowers with too many overlapping petals. These will trap air bubbles inside of your resin layers that tend to express during curing. They tend to cause very large holes and gaps.

What you’ll need:

Very high quality UV resin (My suggestion: Counter Culture DIY)

Cabochon bases or frame pendants

Barrier tape (if using a frame instead of cabochon base.)

Toothpicks to pop bubbles (I actually prefer using a sewing needle)

Light Curer such as a nail lamp. I use the Melody Susie 36W nail lamp from Amazon. Counter Culture DIY sells one specifically for their UV resin as well.

Pressed Flowers (My favorite seller on Etsy)

Optional: Colorants. I use mica powders, acrylic paints, and black and white resins from Counter Culture DIY (not sponsored, I wish!) These give your resin a background to stand out against.

Nitrile gloves

How to make it:

Start by applying a thin layer of UV resin to your base or taped frame. This will be the layer with color (if using pigments).

2. Pop any visible bubbles with a toothpick and cure the first layer for about 1-3 minutes.

3. Apply a thin dot of clear resin to the first cured layer. This will give your flowers something to stick to as you arrange them.

4. Once your flowers are arranged, apply a few strategic dots of resin around them to keep them in place. Cure the first thin layer without covering the flowers completely. Remember to pop bubbles!

5. Continue to add thin layers. Cure each layer for 1-3 minutes each. Repeat this process until your flowers are covered and your top coat has a domed appearance.

6. Finished! Avoid touching your project for several minutes until fully cooled. You don’t want fingerprints in your shiny top coat!

All Hail the Christmas Crow!

Not a book, but still a project I'm proud of!

Went down the cricut adventure rabbit hole with these Christmas/Yule cards. I wanted to get some experience with other aspects of cricut and papercraft and thought a card would be a great place to start!

The process started with getting the image created as a vector image in order to keep the lines as crisp as possible. I'm glad I'm skilled with Illustrator's pen tool cause I definitely spent a while getting our crow friend and his background made!

Then, I realized after importing the newlu created SVG file into the cricut workspace that I didn't take into account just how it would cut.

So rather than having a million small pieces of paper cut out, I went back to update my file so the black was all one piece with the holes cut out for color to show behind. And went through and created blocks of color that connected to show behind.

You know, how layering paper should be 😅

So once that was done and updated, it was finally print time! Did a few tests between sizes, moved some vectors around to help the cuts stay clean at a smaller size, and once I had a version I was happy with, I let the cricut do it's thing!

Once I had all my parts cut out and weeded, it was simply a matter of gluing it all together! Red was first, then green, and then white, with the metallic purple-black last for the crow's body.

Then, I got the card design whipped out and printed to size and assembled!

Now for the final step: creating an envelope to fit the non-standard card size I accidentally created.
