How to Make Stickers With Your Cricut - No Printer Necessary!

Choose your design

You should look for an image which is relatively simple and only requires one colour - at least to start with! Text-based images are absolutely perfect for this, as are simple silhouettes.
I've chosen a selection of images from Sassy Crafting by Emma Jewell - this collection is available to download free for CraftWorld Premium members here.

Add your images to your Canvas

Import your images and add them to your canvas, arranging each image into the size and position you want to see on your finished stickers.
I'm using Cricut Design Space for the Explore 3 on a Mac, so your software might look slightly different but the principle is the same.

Single image stickers

To turn a single image into a sticker, select that image and apply an offset as shown.

Multiple image stickers

You can also combine multiple images into a single sticker. To do this, select all of the images you want to appear on your sticker, then apply the offset as before.

Rearrange your canvas if needed

You might now find that some of your stickers are overlapping each other. You can move them around now and resize them if needed.

Prepare your layers

Insert a couple of triangles in the gaps at the top of your canvas to act as "registration marks", helping you to line up your layers of vinyl, first in the same colour as your offsets:

Now duplicate those and pop them at the side for now. Recolour them to the same colour as your images.

In the "Layers" panel, select all of the pieces which will be cut from your backing vinyl - this is all the offsets as well as the triangles. Click "combine" and then "unite".

Position the black triangles exactly on top of the grey triangles. You might find it helpful to zoom in for this task.

Now select all of the black elements in your "Layers" panel and unite them as you did for the grey elements.

Cut out your layers

Now we're getting to the really fun part! Time to fire up your Cricut and get ready to cut.

You will need two pieces of vinyl in contrasting colours. One will be your backing layer and the other will be your images. I've chosen a sparkly silver for the backing and black for the images.

Proceed to make your cuts, following the instructions for your specific machine and materials.

Weeding time!

Weed both sheets of vinyl, making sure to leave your triangles in place.

Image layer

Take your top layer (the images in black) and add them to a sheet of transfer tape.

Peel away the backing.

Add the images to the backing

Using the triangles to line up the two layers, add the images on top of your backing.

And finally!

The last step is to carefully peel away the transfer tape, leaving your stickers behind.
