Using the Cricut design software and cutting machines, you can create multiple colors with just one cut. By combining multiple layers of colored vinyl, Heat Transfer Vinyl (HTV), and other materials, you can create stunning multi-colored designs in no time. With a few simple steps, you can easily create multi-colored designs on your Cricut with no extra hassle.
Step 1: Choose your materials. The Cricut software allows you to choose from a variety of different materials for your project.
You can choose from vinyl, HTV, fabric, iron-on transfers, and more! Each material will have its own cutting settings that you can adjust accordingly.
Step 2: Upload your design. Once you’ve chosen your material(s), it’s time to upload your design or artwork into the Cricut Design Space software. You can either upload an image file or use one of the thousands of images available in the library.
Step 3: Create separate layers. Once your design is uploaded into the software, it’s time to start creating separate layers for each color.
To do this, click on the “Layer” tab in the top menu bar and select “Split Layers” from the dropdown menu. This will allow you to create a different layer for each color in your design.
Step 4: Select colors for each layer. After creating separate layers for each color in your design, it’s time to select a color for each layer.
To do this, simply click on the layer tab and select “Select Color” from the dropdown menu. From here you can choose any color of vinyl or HTV that is compatible with your machine.
Step 5: Cut out your design! Now that all of your layers are set up and ready to go, it’s time to cut out your design! Load up whatever material(s) you are using into the machine and hit “Go!” Your machine will then begin cutting out all of the pieces for each layer of your design.

Creating multiple colors on Cricut is easy when following these five simple steps! With just a few clicks of a button, you can quickly set up separate layers for different colors and then let your machine do all the hard work!
