Slice only works when two images are chosen, usually when the tool is nor selectable, you either have only one image or multiple images chosen. I hope this helps
Hello loved the video I have a 12x24 mat could I make a print n cut bigger n use the 12x24 like 3xs by cutting my image but fitting the image in 3 12x24 mat once I slice it into 3 parts thank u
Hi great video but i tried to turn one of my images that i linked cause i had so many cartridges i tried to flatten a image to use as a print n cut n tried to sliced it but i couldnt slice it do u know why it wouldnt let me slice any of my linked images for a print n cut ? Thank u
also if i do this with transfer paper instead of vinyl would i have to print the image out first with the design space and then when i go to cut it itll cut the image out peice by peice off the one big image? or will it just cut it all out at once?
Hi Christine, I am positioning the white square shapes next to each other so that as I slice the Mickey image, the sliced piece will be under the 11 1/2 required size to cut. Does that make sense?
Angela, I use Close To My Heart black cardstock but poster board would be a much sturdier base for the larger images. I also put use cardboard to create a stand, which adds to the structure. This can be a stick style form attached to the back ao the project may be inserted into a pot or stand or a V style cut so the image may stand alone.
Hi Shirley you're making this so easy thank you I'm following you step by step but I can't seem to get my ingroup to light up so that I can follow you. What am I doing wrong
Tim, you have to be sure you only have two items selected. When looking at the Layer section on the right side, if you see more than two items selected, it will not let you slice. Be sure you are ungrouping the Mickey figure so you are working with only the background of Mickey and one of the 12"x12" sections. hope this helps
Thanks for making this so short! You are a saint !
Thank you so much for blessing me with such simple instructions. New to cricut.
This helped me so much. Very easy to understand!!
Thank you so much, you made this an easy project.
Super helpful and to the point! THANKS!
I’m doing this on a iPad. I got to the part right before you slice. I did everything but it’s not allowing me to pick slice. Help please

great video but the clicking of the mouse is terrible! :) This was pretty easy to understand

Omg so very helpful thank you I just got my Cricut on Monday!!!

In Design Space Image gallery Mickey Mouse

I think I can do this. Thank you so much.
also if i do this with transfer paper instead of vinyl would i have to print the image out first with the design space and then when i go to cut it itll cut the image out peice by peice off the one big image? or will it just cut it all out at once?
charito garcia I have never done it with vinyl or transfer paper. Will have to experiment with other materials
ok this may be a stupid question but can you explain to me the positioning of the mats? i don't understand when your putting in the numbers
Hi Christine, I am positioning the white square shapes next to each other so that as I slice the Mickey image, the sliced piece will be under the 11 1/2 required size to cut. Does that make sense?
Wow great video thank u so much ❤️❤️
I usually use black poster board for my base since its heavier,but what cardstock you use for your black and color pieces?
Angela, I use Close To My Heart black cardstock but poster board would be a much sturdier base for the larger images. I also put use cardboard to create a stand, which adds to the structure. This can be a stick style form attached to the back ao the project may be inserted into a pot or stand or a V style cut so the image may stand alone.
Could you have ungroup the white parts? Instead?
The white parts were not grouped but instead a single image
Am I able to do this on the cricut app on my phone?
Yes you may size in the app. You will have to play with selecting each set of images for the slicing
Went side by side with your video but the slice action won't work. Only Dup, Del, and contour are lite up. Any suggestions
Be sure you are only selecting one background square and the Mickey. Slice only works with two images selected
The way I select is to click on one image, hold down the shift key and click.on the second image
Thanks sooo much, I'll try that.
Thanks I got it
Hi Shirley you're making this so easy thank you I'm following you step by step but I can't seem to get my ingroup to light up so that I can follow you. What am I doing wrong
Debra, thank you so much. I will do some research as I would love to have you follow me.

Same here. It doesnt give me the option to ungroup or to even slice when I select a box and my image
Hello are you using this as a print and cut or just cut imagine?
Just what I needed! Thank you!
You are welcome
How do you do you do the black background? you are clicking on the pieces but when I do it it doesn't turn black
Tammy, I am deleting each of the pieces so that only the black background piece remains on the duplicate image.
you could do this with an image thats not from the cricut store right?
charito garcia yes with any image
So easy to understand,
Everything is good until its time to slice. I can't click on it.
Tim, you have to be sure you only have two items selected. When looking at the Layer section on the right side, if you see more than two items selected, it will not let you slice. Be sure you are ungrouping the Mickey figure so you are working with only the background of Mickey and one of the 12"x12" sections. hope this helps
I tried this and mine isn't not letting me slice anything. Any idea what I may be doing wrong??
Holly be sure you only have two images chosen at a time
It may not be a layered image
My nerves is bad so I can't finish the video
