Cut out your design(s) with whichever cutting method works best for you, whether you choose to use the Cricut Print Then Cut process or just a straight cutter.

Place your printed design onto a Cricut mat, press the double arrow button to load the mat, and press Go to proceed with the cut.

Once the design has been cut, use a straight cutter or a pair of scissors to trim just inside the light grey line.
