Instructions

  • Upload your images into the Cricut Design Space. Change all of the yellow lines in the file to scoring lines, by clicking on each of them in the layers panel and changing them from cut to score. You can also resize this if you want to make it smaller or larger (if larger, you will need larger paper and a 12" x 24" mat). You will also have a heart and two circles (one for the front and the back).
  • Then click Make! The Cricut will cut and score your heart in no time flat. The scoring is hard to see in this photo, but it's there. Recommend using a lighter paper vs. a heavier cardstock.

  • Assemble the Paper Rosette Hearts
    Once you have your file cut, fold on the score lines. One each end you should have the first fold line folded up like a mountain, as opposed to down like a valley.
