Cricut Seaside Cafe 3D Box SVG files
Download and unzip the SVG file for Silhouette. Open the SVG in Silhouette Studio Designer and follow along with the file setup video below. Group each image with the cutlines before moving any elements. Add the registration marks and make adjustments as needed. Be sure the image is within the registration guides before printing. If you have issues with the cutlines showing up on your prints, try selecting the cutlines and changing the transparency to 100%. The full design will fit onto 3 letter size sheets of matte photo paper or cardstock. You're cut settings will depend on the sharpness of your blade and your paper weight, but in general you can choose a heavy cardstock setting. Once you're done printing and cutting, check out the box assembly video :)
Download and unzip the SVG file and PNG files for Cricut and follow along with the file setup video. Upload the SVG and add it to a new canvas. Next upload each png, choose flat image for each one. Move the cutlines above all the images. Scale each down, the size for each image is included in the video. Align each image with the cutlines. Once everything is aligned, select all the inside lines and change the operation type to score or deboss or perforation, depending on which tool you have. Next delete the outside cutlines, if you don't Cricut may cut each image twice. Select the cutlines and the matching image and 'Attach.' Click 'Make it' and choose letter size paper. When printing choose add bleed and choose a high quality photo print settings. Follow the on screen prompts to change your cutting and scoring tools as needed. Once you're down printing and cutting, check out the box assembly video :)
