HOW TO TURN A ONE LAYER IMAGE INTO MULTIPLE LAYERS IN CRICUT DESIGN SPACE TO GET DIFFERENT COLORS

In this video I'm showing how to create multiple layers in Cricut Design Space. I show how I found this image on the internet and how to clean up the image. By making multiple layers you are able to use different colors for your adhesive vinyl or HTV projects.

Possibly THE best Cricut tutorial I’ve ever watched- including ones I paid for🤦‍♀️ Thanks so much x

[@oliviavasquez4948]

Do you know is she is a premium member on Cricut. Cause I don’t see the select image type on my computer. Do I need to pay for it?

[@jenniferstandard5632]

Kayla, you are my go-to now anytime I’m stuck! I did my first layered vinyl for a car decal and could have used this info. It was only two colors but I couldn’t figure out how to do this so I printed each one fully and weeded out the parts I didn’t need. This would have made it so much easier. Rather than deciding no more layering I now know I can do harder things!! Thank you! You and your channel rock!!!

[@noemisharma3143]

Thank you so much for this amazing tutorial! I was a bit intimidated to try this at first, But it felt easier after watching your video and having it available to go back and reference along the way! Thanks a million!!!!

[@ladyakiraa82]

This is freaking awesome. I needed this so much!!! I am going to be sitting on pins and needles waiting on the 2nd video showing how you cut and put it together. I'm a total newbie and I don't really comment but I loved this so much.

[@KaylasCricutCreations]

Crystal Kelley thank you!! I’m so glad! ❤️ hopefully in a couple days I’ll get it posted! :)

[@yvonneescobar6212]

Easiest video ever thank God lol but I really need to cut and apply this already lol been waiting

[@francesjanettecantu7327]

Do you all use a Mac?

[@SassyandSalty_Melisa]

This tutorial is great!! Thank you! I know it’s two years old already, but it still applies and is super helpful!! 💖

[@LindaChycinski]

I just ordered a Cricut Maker that is to be delivered on Friday and I've been marathon watching videos to learn all that I can. It occurred to me today that I had NO CLUE how to create layers! Then I found your video and now I feel better prepared to attempt this. Your video is awesome and very informative. Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge with us!!

[@sillychilly1028]

I just got my first cricut machine and your videos are AWESOME! I've read so many blogs trying to figure things out (I've literally never done any of these types of crafts before) and your tutorials make it all so easy to follow and learn!

[@lissachampion6574]

Oh my this was a great help. I had never layer before because I was always scared. And didn't know really how? You done an amazing job on explaining how to do this I am now excited to try. Thank you so much for showing us how it's done.

[@Airistanx]

You are such an amazing teacher! I've spent the last week searching online trying to figure out how to layer and you spell it out, step by step and show exactly what and how you are doing it! Thank you for such a good demonstration.

[@marcusdoss5371]

Oh Yeah She The Truth

[@otreacecooper166]

I seriously have not tried layering because I did not have the first clue on how to start it! This video is sooo helpful and extremely informative. Thank You for sharing!

[@KerriBolinder]

Kayla I tried watching this when I first got my Cricut a year ago. I got lost within the first few minutes and walked away. Today I decided to watch and walk through it with you. How much easier it was this time compared to the last. Thank you so much for taking the time to do this.

[@ambermyers4256]

I am so amazed at how much more I understand my cricut now that I have found your videos! And I've had it for 3 years! LOL 😂 Thank you so much for sharing your creativity. I am forever indebted to my sister for introducing me to your channel. ❤️

[@melissayoung6003]

OMG - after trying for days to do a simple layer - I watched this video multiple times and did a walk through! What do you know it worked perfectly!!! Thank you. Awesome job

[@lillyvelazquez4966]

You are AMAZING!!! Thank you so much for this tutorial. I was pulling my hair trying to turn my cousin's logo into multiple layers so I could use different colored vinyl. You saved me!!!!

[@JulieSchulerVideos]

Oh my goodness knowing this would have saved me SO MUCH TIME on my first layering project 😭 thank you!!

[@SuperMsMom]

mine too

[@trixdube5148]

THANK YOU! This is my first project which I'm making a decal to put on the inside of my phone case and this literally was so simple to follow!

[@yasminsc93]

This! Is! The! Best! Video! Ever! seriously this has saved my life and I'm so thankful you did this because my cricut has definitely tested my patience to the point where I wanted to return it lol

[@christinepiearson1582]

That is an amazing tip, never thought to reduce the color! I've tried to upload so many images & delete everything & hoping it would have clean lines... So many wasted hours!! Coming up with a project just so I can try it! Thank you so much for sharing 🙌🙌

[@mrscoolwhipp]

Have had my Cricut for 18 months and knew NOTHING about contouring. This is SO HELPFUL! THANK YOU 😭😍

[@KaylasCricutCreations]

Aubrey A. I’m SO glad it was helpful! 🥰 it took me so long to start using contour! It’s crazy how much you can change an image with it :)

[@stephanieduran6096]

Omgggg! You are totally a life saver, the passed weeks I’ve been watching videos after videos just to learn, honestly NO ONE has explained as clear like you! Obed tried hundreds of ways ! And tada! ✨💕 thank you so so much for this video! Can’t wait for the next video 🙌🏼

[@KaylasCricutCreations]

Stephanie Duran I’m SO glad!! 🥰 can’t wait to share the next video! ❤️

[@user-wf6uo7ci5s]

Very descriptive and knowledgeable! I was just using the complex method and was having a pain with the eyes in my recent project but I’m glad to have found your channel with great tricks😭👏🏽! Thank you for the advice and knowledge 😁

[@KaylasCricutCreations]

Bianca Olivia I’m so glad!! 🥰❤️ The eyes are the worst to contour!

[@melissaduncan6115]

I’ve wanted to do one of these and never knew how! Thank you so much with this tutorial 🥰

[@melindamesser]

This is amazing, I struggled with an image the other day and just couldnt figure it out but I ran across this video this morning and its amazing. Thank you so very much for sharing your knowledge and creativity with us! It was in my mind there there had to be a way and you made it easy thank you so much for sharing with us

[@bellamia276604]

Your tutorial, hands down, is the easiest one to follow for me. I am new to Cricut and I was about to give up after watching up to 100 videos in as many as 2 weeks. I actually fell upon your tutorial while watching a food video lol Thank you so much for having patience to go thru the little things other's leave out.

[@jennifermcleod6225]

What she said! 😁

[@jstpshply79]

As someone who does not have the ability to explain things very well, I truly appreciate your ability to teach so concisely and effortlessly! Thank you!!

[@KaylasCricutCreations]

jstpshply79 thank you!! :) I’m SO glad!

[@wickedwinnie]

💜 Fantastic tutorial!! This is what all KZbin tutorials should be, all the important details demonstrated and described perfectly. Also not a lot of extra unrelated chatter, which I find distracting when I’m trying to learn something. Subscribed 🍻

[@Matty06001]

THE most helpful thing was the revelation that I had to bring in images as Cut images, not Print then Cut. Der. Thank you thank you thank you.

[@melissajohnson5259]

Thank you so much !!!! I have been struggling since before Christmas to try and figure this out. I followed step by step the little mermaid and was able to do it. I just sat there staring at it, like I did it !!. Now to watch and follow your next one of how to cut and put together. please keep doing instructional videos, I have sat for months stuck and although I have watched others, you way of explaining and showing is what made me understand. thank you for really showing me how to do this and understand a bit more and for saving me more time trying to research it and possibably giving up.

[@rosatorres676]

I am a brand new Cricut owner and I can not tell you how much this video has helped me! Thank you! Thank you!

[@tankscrittersandurbanhomes5579]

OMG thank you so much. No one else explains this so well. It's so simple yet so frustrating if you've not been shown.

[@bobbydykes6289]

Love the way you broke that down. I spent a few hours over the last week trying to figure it out on my own (with very little luck). I’m going to give it another shot soon.

[@annettefalconer3]

Fantastic. I did my first clip art into design and didn’t know how to add colour. Thanks to you I now can attempt this you have made my day

[@clairetokarz4056]

This is SO EASY TO FOLLOW!!!! I saw a ridiculous step by step blog tutorial that said to use triangles or stars and whatnot and it confused me so much. This is so much easier. Thank you for uploading this.

[@carladingess245]

I was driving myself crazy trying to figure out this process until I found your video. Thank you

[@staceyflores8056]

I am BRAND NEW----24 hours new.. I am struggling just learning the basics. This was GREAT and so easy to follow! The husband bought me the Maker and its so overwhelming! Thank you again making these so easy to follow

[@loriosman6552]

Thank you so much for this! I’ve been looking for someone to show me for the longest. Now I know how to layer my own images, thanks again!

[@03patines]

You have now idea how helpful this video is. I struggled for a week trying to accomplish what you have achieved here, even talking with Cricut CSR several times, but no final results. Now I am able todo what I wanted to do by watching and following your video. My Cricut software is a little different than yours (purchase Jan 2022) and some of the controls such as zoom, etc., are in different locations, but easy enough to find. Thank you, Thank you!

[@annmcarthur5414]

Your tutorial is fantastic!!! I am not near proficient with Cricut but have the desire to make things. I have watched and read about layering/slicing and couldn't get it. You made so much sense and were easy to follow!! Now, to cut it all with correct colors and iron on!! Thank you!

[@MsPuffMomma]

YESSSSSS!!! You just opened the door to so much for me. Thank you. Gonna play around in DS once my son falls asleep.

[@IamWatzReal]

7 minutes into your video was all it took for me to create my first successful design. Thank you so much

[@joseyodalistorres]

quiero darte las gracias por tomar de tu tiempo para hacer este video... wow llevo ya casi one year buscando que se me explicara como hacer layers... y por fin lo entendi con tu video... muchas gracias Kayla de verdad!!! Dios te bendiga!

[@msdebi508]

I've been all over the internet trying to figure out how to do this. Thank you so much...

[@lynngauck8630]

I am a newbie to Cricut Explore Air 2. I have NEVER used a cutting machine until 2 weeks ago. I first learned how to make paper flowers (I'm still practicing this), but wanted to move on to using vinyl. I attempted to make a Grinch face and put it on the bottom side (facing up) of a glass plate. It only involved the black outline, some white around his hat and red for the hat. (I thought was VERY simple, but that turned into a DISASTER and looks absolutely horrible! I came across your video and GAME CHANGER!!! This is AN AMAZING video!!! Thank you for sharing!

[@crystaljohns2017]

Thank you sooooo much for this great easy to follow tutorial!! I love the tip about going into advance options to get a cleaner image.

[@stabpunch]

If you turn on the main outline contour for all the layers you can quickly drag all layers to the corner of the project and they will line up, then you can turn off the main outline in the layers and its all perfectly lined up

[@marieeloi244]

How

[@LegsforDayz89]

Thank you for this video! I was totally confused prior and everyone else made it more complex.

[@GGGG-ns6ns]

This was so easy to follow along with, thanks. I saw so many others where they use a different program which is time consuming because I don’t know how to use it. You utilize the Cricut program for everything 😍😍😍😍😍

[@telmabermudez8235]

Totally blew my mind. I can't believe you can do this with DS. Your tutorial is incredibly helpful; every step is explained and easy to follow. Thank you so much for taking the time to show us this amazing feature in DS and your step by step tutorial. New subscriber and follower.

[@fafou19]

Thank You so Much Got my Cricut 3 days Ago and your video's has been the most simple to follow I just made my first Layered Project on Design space im really excited !!!

[@msgadget58]

Thank you, Thank you, I needed to see this done. I've been trying to figure out how I was going to do a minion

[@tanyarodrigues9808]

Thanks for posting this video! I loved how you went through every step with detail, and it was really easy to follow!

[@karenbrooks2116]

This is an amazing tutorial! I worked along step by step and everything made sense and turned out great! Thank you so much!

[@justababsy465]

Just received a Cricut Explorer Air 2 and had no idea what I could do with it. This video is immensely helpful!

[@rayannmurray2025]

i can not think you enough for this video it helps me so much i watch it over and over again.

[@LoveInverseReverse]

Thank you so much for this video! I had a vague idea on how to do this, but this was so much easier than what I would have done. I can't wait to try this out now!

[@audrakelley9479]

Thank you! This is the best video I have seen for layering.

[@cindiloo4468]

wow this is great. I knew there had to be a way to do this. Thank you so much for this.

[@MetalheadMike99]

Thank you for these tips! I've heard of using the pens to draw on iron on vinyl but I would worry about the transfer process and the longevity of the project afterwords. I just started using a cricut maker

[@katebrown1592]

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! I knew there must be a way. I so appreciate you showing me how to do this!

[@lori-jocarroll]

This was so interesting to learn. Many thanks. Meant wait to see it cut and put together.

[@avadeines4877]

after watching this i tried it and it was amazing! thank you sooo much!!!

[@chelseag5799]

Thank you for making this video! I’m a beginner and have been trying to figure out how to do the layering! Thank you!

[@AussieMumVLOGS]

Wow so in depth, I can definitely see how tricky and fiddly this is! The things we do to make things fir our kids hehe. This was so helpful and I'll probably watch it another 10 times lol so it sinks in. Thank u

[@pennystenzel8016]

This video changed my entire cricut hobby experience. Thank you so much!

[@theresabarrow5199]

Wow, you made this so simple for a newbie like me. I'm excited to try it this weekend. Thank you sooo much!!!

[@melissahall9742]

I absolutely love this video!! I have been wanting to learn how to do for so long now. I don’t have patience for “reading” how to do things, I am more of visual learner, it makes things “click” for me!! I greatly appreciate the time you took making this video. Although there are many steps you have made it very comprehendible 👏🏻and I am sure I will need to practice but it is something I will definitely be doing. Thank you again😊

[@KaylasCricutCreations]

Melissa Hall thank you!! I’m so glad it was helpful. 🥰 ❤️ I’m the same way as you, definitely a visual learner!

[@geemarylou]

Thank you so much for this tutorial! You made it look easy and I was able to do this by following along with you!!

[@kimberlyupp4939]

Thank you so much for making this video! By far the most helpful I have found!

[@CarolinaGirlCreationZ]

Oh my gosh, this is so intimidating to a new Cricut owner like me. I'd like to think that my years of Photoshop and Illustrator would help me but mentally trying to think in layers cut by color individually is hurting my head. LOL! But saving this to my reference videos for when I get brave enough to try something like this. Excellent tutorial!!! Thank you so much!

[@oksananyskohus8891]

This was great Kayla! ❤️ You have inspired me to do so much more with my Cricut. Just in time for my granddaughter for her birthday. The Cricut cut the pieces out perfectly. Just wanted to know if I layer the pieces onto the black background or do I slice them from the background.

[@biancaaileen2008]

Thank you so much for this video!!! You went so into depth and explained so well!❤️

[@nanciew5317]

I've watched a LOT of different videos and you are by far the BEST instructor out there!!! I am so glad I found you. Thank you so much.

[@karenvelasquez2364]

Thanks a lot!! finally I got it! I made all the images for my daughter birthday celebration, very easy

[@blancarodriguez9744]

This has been the most easiest video I've seen so far.....THX SO MUCH 🥰🥰

[@aliciarenee1984]

I'm new to using a cricut. I'll admit..I'm very intimidated, but your video gave me a little more confidence! Thank you!!! I subscribed!

So that's how you do it! Thank you so much.

[@latriceprice9578]

I CANNOT BELIEVE I FOUND YOU!!! THIS IS EXAAAACTLY WHAT I NEEDED!! THANK YOU A MILLION TIMES!!!!!

[@ellen37892]

It was difficult for a beginner like me but with your help I was able to contour my favorite Disney princess

[@dewrider]

What an awesome tutorial. Thank you so much! I have been redesigning everything. Its been such a pain in the butt! You have expanded my cricut world!! (Didn't realize I was signed in on my husbands computer, no he isn't the one working the cricut.:)

[@regenasimmons2534]

This was by far THE BEST video on layering! Thank You sooo much!

[@ritawadick5859]

You are absolutely amazing. What a tedious process, but how clever. Thank you so much once again for an excellent tutorial. I really didn't know Design Space has so many capabilities, and once you know how, you can basically do anything you want. Thank you.

[@theracediva]

I agree, total newbie here. But this was outstanding and so very clear. I have found a horse image on facebook. Saved it, added it to Cricut design space, made it an SVG and resized for my wee cricut. Then cut out 2 versions as you showed. One was brilliant and I am feeling very chuffed. Yes it is some fiddling around and I only did light cardstock as a test run but it worked!!!! Going to try doing a black/white into colours next. THANK YOU for sharing this, I have subscribed

[@leighsutherland6222]

Love love love the video! Thank you. You have a lot of patience to go along with your talent, and it shows.

[@KaylasCricutCreations]
