Photoshop - Sketch to Path to SVG Cutting File

Photoshop - From Sketch to Path to SVG Cutting File
Learn how to turn a sketch into a path that you can save as a SVG file for cutters such as the Cricut. You will learn how to add and subtract shapes from each other reliably in Photoshop and how to create a shape in a way that it can be saved as a SVG file to be used for digital cutting, for example for the Cricut and Silhouette cutters. I'll import the file into the Cricut Design Studio to show you how the finished file looks.

Thank you Helen, this video makes a very good practice for me because I tend to forget what I seldom use (but might use one day).

I am happy to help Pauline!

Amazing! Thank you so much! This is fantastic! Learned a lot. I’ll put it to practice! It was nice of you for mentioning my name at the end :-) it made me smile! You even nailed the pronunciation! Thank you again! ❤️

[@HelenBradley]

I am so glad you enjoyed this video. I am thrilled that I nailed the pronunciation too! I hope this helps you make your own svg files in future.

This is helpful, I haven't used the custom shapes except a few that came with Photoshop. I will explore these techniques. I also wasn't aware of the cut outs and that is another feature I didn't know of and want to explore in Photoshop as well. I had a Digital Imaging 1 & 2 Class using Photoshop and neither of these classes did the instructor show us this feature. I am glad that you provided this tutorial and that I watched it. I have seen that cutter called Cricket, I guess that site is related to that cutter called Cricket.

[@HelenBradley]

Hi Susan. The Cricut site is for the Cricut cutter. Now I don't have a cutter but I use the Cricut design space to test out my svg files so I can ensure they are going to work for people who do have cutters - whatever brand they might be (since most will accept svg files). It's a handy solution for ensuring that your svg files are going to be useable and not have errors (like my first attempt did!). I'm glad you enjoyed this video.

[@sheikhmuhammadadnan3]

nice

[@HelenBradley]

Thank you! Always good to hear from you!

[@cuff2860]

I did everything you did, but Cricut Design Space gives me an image upload failure. It acts as though it will upload it and the file does look as though it loads into Cricut but the image itself never shows up. What am I doing wrong?

[@HelenBradley]

I don't know Raye I am sorry. It worked just fine for me. Perhaps try again with a really quick and simple design and see if you can get that to work before using something more complex?
