CHAPTER 12

Designing Cut And Print T-Shirts Using Cricut

THIS SEEMS TO BE ONE of Cricut's hardest-to-understand characteristics. In this chapter, I want to demonstrate how simple Print Then Cut is and demystify the whole process.

There's a lot to do with this project function, like laptop, stickers, wall decals, and keyboard overlays, decorations, and even temporary tattoos.

BESIDES A T-SHIRT, all that is required for this project is a way to press your decal, printable iron-on transfer medium, an inkjet printer, like an EasyPress or iron, and a decal you create with the Cricut Design Space function Print Then Cut.

Supplies Printable iron-on transfer medium Inkjet printer EasyPress, heat press, or iron Parchment paper or Teflon sheet (one should be in your transfer package). A way to cut your decal (I used the fantastic Cricut).

Instructions

Step 1: Find a Print Then Cut Design in the Cricut Design Space Cricut Design I believe many of you are afraid of it, but I can assist you to comprehend it better.

All Print Then Cut is a way to cut your Cricut printed picture. Your Cricut will cut around the image when set up correctly, leaving you with a super-precise picture you can use for your projects.

To begin, go to Cricut Design Space, start a new project, and click Templates. Choose the sort of jacket you want to create, size and color— this will assist you in visualizing your jacket as you design it.

It would be best if you had a picture now. I believe most individuals want internet pictures, so let me show you how to do that. Let's say I want a unicorn shirt. The easiest way is to use one in Cricut Design Space — discover pictures, click pictures on the left, then type a phrase to describe what you want, like a unicorn.

Moreover, if you click Filter then inspect the Printables box, you can see the pictures that are perfect for Print Then Cut, just like these unicorns. Once you discover one, press the picture and insert images.

Once on your canvas, you'll need to resize to suit your shirt. You need to maintain the Print and Cut picture lower than 6.75" high and 9.25" long. You can alter the image size by clicking on it and typing in the W and H boxes at the upper part of the screen.

That looks fantastic. Now there are a few things to crosscheck before we can. First, its one layer flattened. View the layers panel on the right hand side. We can see this unicorn consists of several layers. To solve this, pick all layers and press Flatten at the bottom of the panel.

However, what if you can't discover your picture in Design Space?

Here's what you're doing. Find a picture you want to use. There are many pictures online. You should suppose that EVERY image you discover is copyrighted and ask for approval to use or buy a permit.
