Step 1: Upload Your SVG File to Cricut Design Space
For you to make a sticker using your SVG file, you need to launch your Cricut Design Space software. When you have it loaded on your canvas, head to the “Upload” button on the left side pane where all your tools are located. As you click on this, a dialog box opens where you are supposed to upload your file. Press the “Upload Image” button so you can select an image from your computer. Alternatively, you can just drag and drop your SVG to the canvas.

Step 2: Add the Uploaded SVG to the Canvas

Step 3: Set the File to the Allowable Sticker Size in Cricut Design Space
While your SVG file can be scaled up and down without breaking or losing its quality, Cricut Design Space can only accommodate 9.25 × 6.75 inches, at most. So make sure your sticker’s dimension does not exceed the acceptable sizes. Do other adjustments and enhancements you need for the image before it goes in print.

Step 4: Send It to Print
Once you have done all the necessary editing and flattening of the objects in the image file, go over to the top right button that says, “Make It”, and hit it. In the “Make” window, you can begin the process of printing. Start with the “Print Setup”. Check on it and if everything is okay press “Print”. Another dialog box will pop up, configure everything according to the type of print you want and the machine you use, and then click “Print” to begin printing your sticker.
