How to use Photoshop and Cricut for stained glass

- This is a super easy way to cut out patterns for stained glass with Photoshop and Cricut. No more cutting out paper patterns and using a sharpie to draw the pattern on. Faster, cleaner, more accurate and the vinyl adheres nicely to the glass even when wet!

If you flip your whole Cricut mat upside down and take it off of the Vinyl instead of the vinyl off of it, it will prevent the vinyl from curling!
Thank you for the compliment! I have since learned to take the vinyl off the mat this way - live and learn 🙂
enjoyed your humor with music and sound effects too.
Thank you very much! 😊
Thank you!!!! I spent hours trying to figure this one out and your video explained it in a way I was finally able to do it.
Sweet! You just made my day :)
I pull the pieces from the pattern and leave the large background intact so I have a pattern to put the glass back into for reference ❤
Oh that's a great idea!. The backing is kinda slick but you could draw in the blank space between vinyl with a sharpie to help you see the pattern. Love it!!!
Thank you so much making this video! I have been searching for videos on how to make stencils using my Cricut for stained glass designs!!
Well good! I hope this helped :) Cricut is simply awesome!
Thank you for this! Had my Cricut for awhile now and have watched many videos and still confused (think it's mostly just scared lol)
You're very welcome! I'll make some more videos soon :)
THANKS you so much!!!! this was wonderfully helpful!!!
I'm so glad it helped!😃
If you turn the mat over and peel it off the back of the vinyl, it will come off a lot easier and reduce any tearing.
I'll try that thank you :)
Thank you for making this so simple.
Thanks for the nice compliment! It's appreciated :)
You make this look so easy 😮
Thank you! :) It is, you just need to practice a bit.
Thank you for this!!! What a great way to use the Cricut!
Thank you! I'm using it for larger pattern pieces right now and they come out so much cleaner :)
Thank you so much! This video was very helpful. I’ve been wondering how I can use my Cricut for patterns, I’ll have to give it a go. Cry-cut 😂
Thank you for the nice comment! Go Cry-cut LOL
Thank you for sharing.,. This video (unlike others I've watched gave me hope of mastering this. So you have other videos or helpful groups?
Wow, thank you very much! This is the only video I've ever made but I'd like to make more in the future. Subscribe and then you will get notified 🙂
I wish you would explain a bit more when you were getting out of PDF. I am learning photoshop, but I was still lost.
Ok i can do that. I need to make another video for that specifically.
Make more videos!!! I want to see you apply the sticker to glass and remove the sticker. Is there left over residue?
OK! LOL :) I'll make some more when i get back from vacation. To answer your question, there is no residue left over from the vinyl at all. Just clean the glass before you put on the vinyl pieces and they will stay on nicely while cutting, grinding even using a saw. Then just peal the vinyl off. Voila! :)
Can you make larger patterns by making multiple smaller prints? Also can you determine the width of the pattern line? Example is lead came patterns need a 2mm or 3/32 line to fit pieces together
Hi Carlye, as long as you are using photoshop or another graphics program you can control everything. Cricut cuts very precisely. For instance, i used this exact method to cut out a tiffany reproduction lamp pattern. Not sure if i did this right but here is a link: facebook.com/StainedGlassFanatics/posts/265062522018243
this is genius
You just made my day! :)
@@bjansson which circuit machine is this?
This looks like a lot of work. Maybe it's just me.
Thanks for this great video! Would love to see more if you get a chance!
which Cricut version do you have, there seems to be many versions of this machine?
I have the Cricut Maker, which is about 3 years old and still going strong. These machines are amazing!
@@bjansson good to here thank you
@@bjansson one more quick question leaning on your experience, do you use the removable Premium Vinyl or the Permanent, since if ring saw is used in cut may get wet, but then is sticker residue an issue? Since temporary use for us, wondering if extra $ for perm necessary.
There should be a way to number the pieces in either photoshop or design space
There is if you use printable vinyl. I haven't experimented with that one yet - but i will! :)
It took me over a year of reading about these machines before I realized it was "cricket" and not "cry-cut". Still retraining my brain. How expensive are the vinyl sheets? Could you use, say, contact paper cut to the right size?
Me too! I got schooled at Michael's store tho LOL. Contact paper is an interesting idea. The vinyl isn't too expensive and Amazon has some really cheap versions. Cricut will cut almost anything including copper sheets for embossing. Time to play! :)
What version of Photoshop do you use?
I have the monthly subscription so it's always the latest version. I did this video a year ago so i'm not sure what it was back then.
Thanks for the video..I just received my Cricut. Are you using removable vinyl or permanent vinyl?
I've used both and they both work just fine. If you are using a saw i would use permanent vinyl though because it does have a firmer grip.
Hello! I’m new to photoshop and I have uploaded my pattern, but it doesn’t come up transparent. I also don’t understand why you said you shouldn’t have the pattern as a PDF-what should I do then? The is a great video! Thanks for posting! Crackhead!😂😂😂
And the jeopardy music! 😂😂😂
Thank you for the nice compliments! I love a person with a great sense of humor 😂 You can use a jpg but it needs to be really large and clear in order to get a good straight line. Vector images are the best because they can be resized. Jpgs are pixilated and will get distorted if you need to make the image larger. To make the image transparent you need to duplicate the layer in photoshop (so you are not using a background image). Go to 1:45 in this video and basically duplicate the procedure but when you have the blank areas all selected go to edit > cut. Now it will be transparent.🙂
I wish I knew what you were talking about while you were in photoshop. Any chance of creating a tutorial? Love the way your Cricut cut the pattern!!!
Yeah, you have to know Photoshop a bit. I'll try and make a more detailed video soon.
Would you make the pattern a mirror image to apply it to the back of the glass for cutting on the flat side?
Actually Cricut has a 'mirror image' button you can select when you're getting ready to print. No need to change the pattern at all! I love Cricut! :)
How wide (mm or pixels) should the line be for copper foil?
Good question. I only work in copper foil so I try to get my lines as small as possible so I can still weed them out. You want to see as much of the beautiful glass as possible and minimize the weight of the solder.
How did you get from the picture to an outline of the picture in photoshop?
Hi Mary. I bought the pattern online (etsy is fantastic for patterns!) and then just imported it into photoshop. To select the dark lines you use the wand tool. I'm planning on making a more detailed video soon. Thanks for watching! :)
how do you make your foil or came lines smaller
That's the tricky part. You have to prepare the graphic in Photoshop, or at least that's the way I do it. My purpose for this video was just showing people that they could use Cricut and vinyl for a stained glass pattern instead of the usual print, cut and trace the pattern on with a sharpie. I really need to make another video showing more details.
I'm hoping that's sooner than later and also thinking others will appreciate knowing how to make lines smaller! TIA
Which cricut are you using in this video?
A Cricut Maker i bought in early 2020 i think.
@@bjansson thank you!
