How Do I Clean Up an Image in Cricut Design Space?

Cricut Design Space is a powerful and versatile tool for cutting and designing with Cricut’s cutting machines. With it, users can create custom designs for vinyl decals, paper crafts, scrapbooking, and more. It’s easy to get started with the software, but one of the most common tasks people run into is cleaning up an image in Cricut Design Space.

The first step in cleaning up an image in Cricut Design Space is to upload it into the software. This can be done by selecting the “Upload” tab at the top of the page and then dragging or browsing to find your file. Make sure that you upload a PNG or JPG file since these are compatible with the software.

Once your image is uploaded, you will need to use the editing tools available in Cricut Design Space to clean up your image. The “Erase” tool can be used to remove unwanted elements from an image while the “Contour” tool can be used to refine shapes or outlines within an image. You may also want to use the “Stroke” feature which allows you to adjust line thicknesses and other attributes of your images.

You will also want to take advantage of layers when cleaning up images in Cricut Design Space by using the “Layers” panel on the left side of the screen. This will allow you to separate objects from each other so that you can work on one element without affecting any other elements on the same layer.

Finally, if you are working with text, you may also want to use Cricut Design Space’s “Text” tool which enables you to quickly and easily add text elements onto your project as well as edit existing text elements.

Conclusion:

Cleaning up an image in Cricut Design Space is not difficult if you know what tools are available and how they should be used. The Erase, Contour, Stroke, Layers and Text tools are all useful for making edits quickly and accurately while ensuring that your final project looks its best.
