America SVG Cut File + Even More Free 4th of July SVGs

by

Looking for a DIY 4th of July t-shirt idea?  This fun firework inspired America SVG cut file makes the perfect 4th of July t-shirt for the entire family.  Download the free SVG and find more free 4th of July cut files from my favorite designers.  

One of my favorite things to do every 4th of July is to flaunt a new patriotic t-shirt.  And because I have my Cricut Maker there are no more buying shirts in this household because I LOVE making t-shirts for my family.

This year I found a really fun font called Fireworks from Creative Market.   This font was designed for crafters to use with their cutting machines.  It cuts beautifully!! I can’t wait to make even more designs with this font.

This America 4th of July cut file has each letter separated on its own layer so you can easily customize this design with different colored vinyl.   Use the red and blue that comes in the file, make it all one color, or use up to seven different colors!

You’ll see the seven layers in the Layers Panel on the right side of your screen.

Before moving forward, resize the design to your desired size.

Select the design and click Ungroup at the top of the Layers Panel.

Resize the design in the Edit Toolbar.

If you were to click Make It now, your cutting machine would cut out each letter but not in the position you have them in now.

If you go to make your design before attaching the letters your Prepare screen will look like this.

To make sure the letters from each color stay in the same position as they are now, you’ll need to Attach them.  Select all of the red letters in the layers panel by holding down the Shift key as you click each layer.  Then click Attach at the bottom of the Layers Panel.  Do the same with the blue letters.

Attach the letters to ensure they stay in the same position as they are on the Canvas.

Now click Make It and the Prepare screen will now show the letters evenly spaced as they are on the Canvas.

After attaching, the letters are now in the same position they were in on the Canvas.

IMPORTANT:  If you’re using iron-on vinyl DO NOT FORGET TO MIRROR each mat.  Otherwise, you’ll have to redo the cut and will have wasted your material.  Trust me I’ve done it!

Don't forget to Mirror your design before you cut.

Now if you want to make this design all one color, after the first step of ungrouping the layers, select all of the layers, and click Attach.  This will automatically make the design one color.

To make the design all one color, simply select all of the layers and click Attach.

Next, click Make It in the upper right-hand corner.

IMPORTANT:  If you’re using iron-on vinyl DO NOT FORGET TO MIRROR each mat.  Otherwise, you’ll have to redo the cut and will have wasted your material.  Trust me I’ve done it more than once so it’s worth the extra reminder!

Don't forget to mirror the design before you cut.

Now, what if you wanted to make this design with more than two colors?  Let’s say you wanted to do a Red, White, and Blue theme.

After the first step of ungrouping the layers, click on each letter, then click the color palette in the Edit Toolbar to select a new color for each layer.

Change the color of the design using the color palette in the edit toolbar.

Then follow the steps above to select the layers from each group of colorss and Attach them.

Select the layers in each color group and click Attach.

This will ensure that each layer of colors has the letters evenly spaced out so you can easily layer them onto your shirt.

Each layer will have the letters perfectly spaced so you can easily layer onto your t-shirt.

IMPORTANT:  If you’re using iron-on vinyl DO NOT FORGET TO MIRROR EACH MAT.  Otherwise, you’ll have to redo the cut and will have wasted your material.  Hopefully, by now it’s ingrained in you and you won’t forget to Mirror 🙂
