Created by ©BeejuiCreations 2018-2022
3D Layered Tiger SVG – Free File & Tutorial. Create a great little layered card stock project with an easy to follow photo tutorial below.
Why not try this layered project out on your Cricut. You could add in your own quotes or personalise with a name and frame it in a shadow box. Perfect gift for a new baby/child’s bedroom or this could even be made into a cake topper.

I have created this project because I love all the layered projects all over the internet at the moment that can be made on your Cricut. I’ve only just started designing my own SVG’s so please let me know if there are any issues with these files.

For a flat look, use adhesive spray or glue stick

For the 3D look, use foam pads in between the layers and the above glue pen.

(NOTE: Hide the foam pads under each layer by using small foam pads or cutting them to size so you can’t see them).

Settings:
Cricut settings
- Resize the SVG within Design Space to fit the paper you are using or move the pieces in the edit mat program to make sure they all fit on the card stock. I resized this project to 13.101cm width by 15cm height to get it to fit all on the project I’m making this for.
- The material setting for all the card layers
- LIGHT CARDSTOCK (65lb / 176GSM) – DEFAULT PRESSURE
NOTE: All machines are different and there may be better settings but these are the ones that have worked for me.
