This is the best tutorial for Inkscape so far, and it went my speed instead of the person doing the tutorial. Thank you
awesome! Thank you! I always worry about if I go to fast / slow so I love hearing this feedback. -Ashlee
you are a GOD send and an answer to prayer your teaching method and your demeanor is perfect.
yay!!! I'm so glad you loved it!!
Loved your narrative tutorial style, I’m about to buy a laser and need to know how to create multilayered svg files. This is a perfect starting point . Loved how you left all the mistakes in, I will be making many and it’s good to see someone making them and rectifying them. I have used Inkscape for making single layer svg’s but hadn’t realised that you could do the multiple layered ones, I had almost abandoned my need to create original files but now I can see that your video will help me achieve my goal. Best wishes from England 😊
Inkscape is so powerful. Truly a marvel such software exist for free !
it amazes me how many people poop on Inkscape, but here I am like "well it's free and I'd rather do free that EXPENSIVE" lol
Excellent tutorial, well-paced, and thorough. I watched it 3-4 times to be sure I didn't miss anything. Used it to take a 2D image of the University of South Carolina Gamecocks logo and make a 3D SVG file that I post-processed and printed with my 3D Printer. It was a Christmas gift for a grandson who is a senior there. This process will be used many times in the future for all kinds of special gifts and personal items, including our grandchildren at NC State, Ohio State, & Syracuse.
I'm so glad you love the tutorial and I was able to help you out! What type of 3D printer do you have? I've been wanting to get one for forever now.
Hi, I have found your tutorials really informative, I’ve recently purchase a Flux Beamo and been pulling my hair out trying to figure how to do layers. I’ve watched a majority of your videos and feel like I can get somewhere with my laser cutter now, one of the best videos I’ve seen. You deserve a lot more followers
Oh my gosh! I'm just now seeing this comment! Thank you so much for your kind words! Are you loving your Flux Beam? I haven't heard much about it.
I really had to play around in the software but thank you for posting this tutorial. Now I don’t need Illustrator to make SVGs. You just made my life so much easier with my new Cricut.
yes! I love hearing this! no more expensive software program!
Thank for this one. I was trying to make an svg from an image using an online svg converter and it would just make it black and white and randomly seperate pieces.
Gonna try this tonight😁
yea, generally the ones from online are only 1 color. They don't do multi color scans.
Thank you so much for this walkthrough! It was fairly easy to do! You were great, spot on perfect teacher 😊
OH THANK YOU SO MUCH!
You can restack (change the order of the objects) all at once by going to Extension > Arrange > Restack and then choose Radial Inward as the direction. I've not tested other directions but I assume other ones may work too.
I must not be understanding your comment, because I tried this and it didn't work for me
@@ashleefalco I replied with a link to a video I made but doesn't look like it's here anymore so I'll explain it. At 6:16 you Break Apart the Trace Bitmap. Then at 7:00 you drag the teeth over to the solid black Spongebob object. The teeth object is behind the solid black object so you reorder. What you can do, after you Break Apart the Trace Bitmap, is select all of the objects created from the Break Apart. Then go to the Extensions Menu, choose Arrange, and then choose Restack. Another window will pop-up. There is a dropdown where you can select different directions. Radial Inward typically works for me, but I tested it with Top to Bottom and that worked as well. After you choose your direction, click Apply. Now the order of all of the objects created from the Break Apart will be reversed. For example, if you did a restack of the objects you wouldn't have to manually bring each object to the front of the solid black Spongebob object. If there's a better way to send you a link to the video I made please let me know. I'm sure you would understand better if you saw it in action.
It took me 3 times to watch the video and get it right butttt I did it!!! Thank you so much!
yay! I am glad to hear you ended up figuring it out
went to ur Instagram and added u, ur Instagram pics are so colorful with all things u have made, I love it!
awe thank you!! I think I am the rare chicken that loves highly colored photos In their feed. LOL
Thank you. Getting to know inkspace, your video is great.❤
thank you!!!
Ok this where I need to be! Thank you Falco!
Happy to help!
I just found your cHannel today. It’s been really helpful. Thank you.. please continue to put out more content.
yay! Glad you find me helpful, that is the best joy ever! -Ashlee
Thank you so much, I was able to create a svg! 🤩
Yay!!! How exciting!! You are welcome 😊
Fantastic tutorial, thank you!!
no thank you!! I'm glad you loved it!
spot on teacher! thanks so much for this
Glad it was helpful!
just for you to know (because you actually read this). I come back here every now and then, to review and every time I learn something new :D we need more of this, can you grab different "challenging images" so we can continue learning?
Paket 2 Nastja ich liebe deine new News du machst das super ❤❤❤ Folge dir seit meinem ersten Kind fast 10 Jahre
glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching
This was so helpful! Thanks so much for making this video :)
Of course!
Thank you, I was looking for this, Regards.
Glad I was helpful. -Ashlee
so you saved Sponge Bob and then you said saved as a "Cut", I am brand new at this never done one thing ever and need to know what does saved as CUT mean, can I use this on my glow forge pro and cut, engrave and score or does saved as cut mean that I have to go in now and change the line colors for engrave and score
you'll be able to use this for your glowforge
Thank you so much for this!
Of course! Hope you enjoyed
Great tutorial! Thank you.
Of course! Thanks for watching -Ashlee
This is a great tutorial! Thank you! I am having an issue with the separating the black back from the squares. It does not give me the option to move it once I do the break apart. If i move it, the entire thing goes with it and does not leave the cut outs behind. Any suggestions?
Click your mouse away from the cutout, leaving it unselected. Then try and click the black piece and move it.
Nice❤
Thanks 🔥
Excellent tutorial! I watched the Gnome video you did which enabled it to cut on laser. How can i cut this image in laser similar to Gnome. I was thinking one backing layer and then all pieces of different colours stuck on it to make spongebob. Can you please help on how i can do that :) many thanks
The way I created it, should work for the laser as well. Just change the colors all to no fill with .1 line width and it should be perfect
thank you so much!!
of course! hope it was helpful!
I wasn’t left with those pieces after I broke apart and I couldn’t break apart my coloured one ? Any suggestions?
I’d suggest trying again. Following my exact steps. Make sure what I select is exactly what you do. There should be any issues
Really fan, it helped me a lot for my Cricut motiver. However could you help how to make dots or strokes on a motive transparent. Then the clothes to where it is vinyl is applied malkes the dots in that color
hello! I'm so confused by your question. Could you elaborate?
@@ashleefalco Hi sorry for that. I would like that the spourunding lines and the shadow lines could be transparent so when you ion on fabric the lines get the color of the fabric. It is difficult to describe :)
Thank you so MUCH!
No problem 😊
How can I take a PDF pattern and delete all the writing so that I can just be left with the pattern to upload into cricut?
You'll want to watch this tutorial of mine: ruclips.net/video/jE2hERwFn6o/видео.htmlsi=xvRrL9rsXxDAgnYz
Been trying to do this for days and days😂 one question is there a way to centre/ group the design before saving so it looks nice I don't know what thing do on inkscape. BUT a huge thank you for this
the way I showed how to do it, there really isn't a super easy way to get it all back on top of each other where they're suppose to be, outside of manually putting it back and lining it up yourself. :(
Do you have an example of the cut product?
I use to a long time ago when this video was first posted.
thank you so much
oh course! Hope it was helpful! -Ashlee
What app for an iPad can I get that does this as well
sadly I'm not sure. I don't think Inkscape works on the iPads
when I do my trace bitmap, the lines are so wonly, it could be a straight line and It gives me waves, how do I fix that?
its hard for me to be 100% sure what's going on without actually having eyes on what you're doing. But my initial suggestion is to bump up (or lower) the brightness threshold when you're trying to trace bitmap.
What version?
any version of inkscape. it's all the same.
What’s the difference between the color replica in minute 5:10 and the final sponge bob. Couldn’t you just save the one in minute 5:10 as an svg file?
you can't save at 5:10, there are other customizations that happen not just color matching. -Ashlee
I found this hard to follow, but maybe it's because I've never used the program before.
Oh this make me so sad to hear!!! Here is a more basic Inkscape video showing you the same thing as the SpongeBob. ruclips.net/video/jE2hERwFn6o/видео.html
I do suggest watching the video and doing the same steps as me at the same time. I believe this may help with confusion:
Hope you are well, I am following your steps but when I ungroup I am getting blocks of colour what am I doing wrong (unable to insert photo I’ve taken to explain). Thank you so much for your help
Hello! If you’re on Instagram & follow me. Please DM me a picture of your issue. I can try to help you there.
@@ashleefalco have sent you a message on instagram
Nice video but what happened at 18:50 ?
because Inkscape is a free program, sometimes there's glitches that I can't explain. This was one of them.
Is it possible to adjust the corners on an individual layer?
It seems when i use the "smooth" tool it rounds out my sharp corners and it distorts the actual look of the image
There is a selection to "smooth corners" in the trace bitmap menu. Or you can press the node tool, and change the nodes later on.
Hi can you help me please, i am watching your video but for some reason when i go to trace bitmap it does it but when i move the image over its empty?. I have uninstalled inkscape and reinstalled it and its doing the same thing its not tracing
You have to make sure to press “update” then “okay”
@@ashleefalco thanks lovely it's all new to me. I was trying to paint with a dropper 🤣 only by accident I came across the paintbrush
I have got to get better hang of Inkscape ugh don’t work right for me lol
it totally takes a ton of practice with this program. The best part, it's free. But the downside is because it's free there's hiccups.
Does this cross any copyright laws? Especially trying to sell them on etsy?
hello. I am not a copyright attorney, so I cannot answer this question. I'd suggest contacting an attorney for the correct answers and not fellow crafters with zero experience in law
The only part of the tutorial that doesn't work is the eyes!
oh why?
@@ashleefalco I figured it out, a few days ago, Thanks for the tutorial.
18:54 I thought she burped
Even if I did, why would it matter? Everyone burps.
@@ashleefalco yea
thanks for the help tho ;)
"Sponge [SPACE] Bob" this was made by a fad
thanks for stopping bye!
*fed
That hast to be the most rediculous workflow that I have ever seen
Sorry to disappoint 👍🏽 have a wonderful day!
… if you’re going to moan about something, at least use a dictionary 🤣

TRASH!
