I make a lot of proxies with a Cricut, and one of the parts I got tired of was rebuilding, resizing and positioning everything manually inside Design Space.

So I’ve been working on a workflow that handles most of that setup beforehand.

Right now it can:

• Build a 6-card print sheet with bleed and registration marks

• Export a print-ready PDF

• Generate a Cricut ZIP with the cut template, exact dimensions and instructions

• Import the template into Design Space

• Print → scan → cut

The video shows the full workflow from preparing the sheet to the final cut.

The main goal is to remove as much repetitive setup as possible from the Cricut proxy workflow.

I’m still refining it, especially the Cricut side, so I’d really like feedback from people who already use Print Then Cut.

What part gives you the most trouble: alignment, registration marks, Design Space, cut settings, or something else?

I made this today. Took me hours to figure it out but I really like the neon / glow in the dark effect. The card has been made using normal holo cardstock, a Xtool Omni 01 printer and a lot of editting 😅
