Why can’t I slice in Design Space

Are you having issues trying to slice in Design Space? There could be a few different reasons for that but it’s usually because you’re trying to slice too many things at the same time.  This quick tutorial will show you how to slice in Design Space no matter how many layers you want to slice.

Slice in Cricut Design Space

So, as I mentioned above, Design Space will only let you slice 2 layers at a time.  This may seem limiting however there is always a work around. What is that work around you may ask? Well…it’s weld.  Yep, that’s all there is to it.  You simply weld together everything you want to slice out so that it all becomes 1 layer. Now you can slice as you normally would.

What if I want the sliced parts to be different colors? Won’t welding them make them all the same color? Well yes, it will.  But there’s an easy fix for that too. That fix is Duplicating.  Just duplicate your original items you want sliced out and then weld them together.  You’ll slice the duplicated welded part out leaving your original design in tack.

Check out the video tutorial below for a more detailed tutorial.

Are you crafty or do you have a unique talent? Do you want to learn how to use the Cricut or be your own boss by starting your own Etsy shop?

At Crystal's Crafties I provide detailed tutorials on how to use the Cricut and create other DIY crafts. I also provide step-by-step instructions and tips for creating an Etsy shop and being a successful Etsy seller. When I started with my Cricut and my Etsy shop I found that I was having to look through dozens of websites to get all the info I needed. There just wasn't a one-stop-shop for everything I needed.

That's why it's my mission to provide you with all the info you need to set up your Etsy shop and be a successful Etsy seller. And to get you crafting some of the DIY's you're going to want to sell in your Etsy shop.

If you're struggling with how to use the Cricut, with DIY crafts or your Etsy shop I think you'd really enjoy reading my blog.
