Think of the possibilities! So, I did some digging and found out exactly how it’s done. The sky is really the limit to what you can do here! Until I created my first round of silhouettes, I hadn’t ever had a project that made me want to figure the whole conversion process out, but I couldn’t shake the thought of how incredibly handy (and downright cool) it would be to have the ability to cut out my childrens’ silhouettes with my Cricut.
When I purchased the software, I was impressed with one of the selling points being the fact that by converting any image file to a scalable vector graphic (SVG) format, you can then use your Cricut and SCAL software to cut it out. I’ve mentioned the Sure Cuts A Lot software quite a few times before (see the post here for another great project idea using your bug). Today I’m going to show you how to kick things up a notch by cutting out the same silhouettes you created with your Cricut! Import the design into your new project and, just like that, you transferred your Inkscape design to Cricut Design Space.Before we get started today, it might be a good idea to take a refresher and read yesterday’s post about how to use your Photoshop Elements software to transform a humdrum photo into a snazzy silhouette. Go find the SVG you just saved on your computer and upload it to Design Space. Open a new project and then go to “Upload”. Transfer Your Inkscape Design to Cricut Design Spaceĭownload the file to your computer and then open Cricut Design Space.
There are a lot of different options and they each mean something slightly different but for pretty much anything you want to do with your Inkscape design (including selling the SVG) you can just save as “Inkscape SVG”. The save screen will pop up and you can name your file and then save as “Inkscape SVG”. So once you have your Inkscape design ready and everything has been converted to a path you simply go up to “File” and then “Save As”.
