Turn any clipart into an SVG file for FREE [Easy creating your own SVG tutorial]

Shop Cardstock: ashleefalco.com
Creating your own SVG file is super easy and quick when you use a FREE program called Inkscape! I love Inkscape and have been using it for what feels like 10 years now (this probably isn't an exaggeration either). I never pay for character SVG files, I create them myself! Create this SVG file with me so we can do an off the mat Envy cutout from the new movie Inside Out 2

Hi Ashlee, first time Inkscape, first time off mat and it came into CDS perfectly, (cut out tomorrow) thank you so much for your videos and constant enthusiasm, it really keeps me going!!! Now on to your Inkscape tutorials………

[@Chrissy_Mad-Scots-Wench]

Great tutorial, Ashlee, THANK YOU! I love my Cricut Machines - I have the Cricut Explore Air 2, Maker 3 and got the Joy Xtra in January this year. I feel Cricut Design Space is letting its Customers who, for whatever reason, don't pay for Cricut access, down as every new update you now need Cricut Access to use them. Apparently Cricut could be bringing out a Laser Machine at some point, which is great, but personally feel they should concentrate on fixing the bugs in CDS first before releasing yet another new machine. Just my HO ofcourse. I use Canva and save my projects in both PNG & SVG. [I also use Creative Fabrica a lot as well for SVGs as they come with a Commercial Licence which is awesome] I've not used Inkscape as often as I'd like, so definitely going to watch your tutorials and have a try. 💕💕

[@elonanamor6420]

First time here. WOW! So much information, clearly given and easy to follow. Thank you. Will be watching many more of your videos.

[@ashleefalco]

thank you for watching and your comment!

[@mychalbrown9704]

Yay! it worked with a mouse! THANKS!!

[@susiepitts7995]

I have been using Inkscape for a few years now & love it!! Still learning as I go. You my dear are a great teacher! I think I can now create without having to go back to this video. Thanks for sharing!! Have a blessed day!

[@ashleefalco]

I've been using Inkscape for a long time too and I'm still learning, LOL I think this program is so robust that you'll always learn something new with Inkscape.

[@Lvirgil35]

Thanks for the video. Your instructions were very clear and get explanation of everything.

[@ashleefalco]

Thanks for watching!

[@sac4939]

Heading to inkscape...I don't pay for cricut and always want to make my own. Thank you!

[@ashleefalco]

Inkscape is the best free program I've ever seen, I promise!

[@jenniferyoung9622]

I learned a new way to do this. Thank you. I love Inkscape, but don’t use it that much.

[@ashleefalco]

Glad it was helpful!

[@katietaylor8655]

hi just love these character tutorials! my kids beg me to make them stuff like this! are you able to do a tutorial on replicating more complex images that cant be auto traced?

[@ashleefalco]

Although this isn't a character tutorial the new svg file that we create is of a realistic image, so this will be really helpful to learn so you can replicate the same steps with realistic characters: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g6bJXoeEpZ2Gfrssi=81odZt1_dLFZrP_F

I have tried using Inkscape and it always freezes my computer up. I design my svg files on Silhouette Business Edition.

[@ashleefalco]

I’ve never had the issue with Inkscape freezing but silhouette business edition is $$ (and although I have it too, most don’t want to spend the money on an app they could do it for free ya know)

[@TheExtremeElementz]

Is Inkscape free? 😂 jkjk Excellent tutorial and something I never knew you could do. I think this will help me with 3D printing too, going to save this video for sure.

[@ashleefalco]

oh! I've heard that Inkscape can make 3d printing files. I wish I had a 3D printer !!! That said, Inkscape is free, in case you missed it ❤️

[@TheExtremeElementz]

@@ashleefalco I am shocked you don’t already own one!

[@ashleefalco]

there are so many options, I don't know which one to buy 😭

[@TheExtremeElementz]

@@ashleefalco Pick a Bambu that’s in your budget and you’ll not regret it. 😉

[@seczee411]

Hi, This is amazing and easy to follow along, but I must have missed something. 🤣😬😬😊 I had the following issues: 1. When I right clicked on the clipart I did not have an option to download, so I selected "save image as." 2. When I put my silhouette to the threshold of 1.000 it turns into a black square, even when I place it on the colored image, it remains a square. Also, if I take the silhouette image down to 0.990, the white part of the silhouette's eyes show. If possible, can you let me know what I might be doing incorrectly. Thank you.

[@ashleefalco]

Hello! Saving image as is perfectly fine and acceptable. You did the right thing! Turning it all the way to 1.00 will turn anything black. You’ll want to take the threshold down until you get exactly the image you’re wanting. Once you’re satisfied press update. Depending on the image you may need to go down to .97 (it just depends on the original image).

[@seczee411]

@@ashleefalco Thank you so much for your reply. I was just concerned because I used the same image as you did (for testing purposes 😊) and mines didn't come out like yours. My image had the whites of her eyes staring back at me. 🤣😄😂 I definitely appreciate this video and will be using this technique for future projects.

[@mychalty]

Can’t figure out how to remove the little dots. I’m using a pen computer

[@ashleefalco]

I don’t know what a pen computer as

[@mychalty]

@@ashleefalco it’s annoying! I’ll try it with a mouse. The pen doesn’t allow me to highlight the nodes to erase them!

[@mychalty]

Oops, sent send without finishing 🤪! I want to thank you so much for the video. It’s very comprehensive and (hopefully with a mouse) easy to follow! And thanks so much for answering

[@malindajt]

Is it inky for $1.99 on Google play?

[@ashleefalco]

No. It’s free and a called Inkscape
