HOW TO: Converting an image into SVG file

hello everyone and welcome to a new video today I am showing you how to create an SVG file just like this one here and just a few simple steps this does not require you to have Photoshop or Inkscape it's just two free websites you don't have to download anything other than your actual SVG files so if you want to see how I created my SVG file and the easy steps that you can take to create your own just go ahead and keep on watching don't forget to give this video a thumbs up and make sure you subscribe for more videos the first thing you're gonna want to do is go to this website remove BG which is going to remove our background for us so what we're gonna do is we're just going to go here to upload image it is gonna take you to your desktop or wherever you have the picture just select it go ahead and open it and it's just uploading so now it gives you this picture here which is obviously just our cute little doggie right here and it gives us a transparent background which is what we want so what I'm gonna do is now I'm just gonna download the image and just go here and now what you are going to do is you are going to go to picture to SVG and the one that I am using is the pic SVG comm so just go ahead and click on it and we're just gonna go here to upload our picture it's gonna take us back to our desktop we're just gonna open the picture that we just downloaded with the transparent background so here it's gonna give you a few different options so it'll give you filters so it can either go lighter or give you a little bit more detail so this part right here is all just about what you prefer I really like how this invert number four looks this one just gives you more of a shadow but I feel like this one looks more like him so what we're gonna do is we're just gonna download the SVG and again we're just gonna drag this onto our desktop and then you'll see here we have our image ready so now that we have our images downloaded what I am going to do is I am just going to open up Cricut design space you can see that I already have these two uploaded this one I did before I cleared the background so this one is the same picture that I had just downloaded from the SVG converter so I'm going to go ahead and insert the image and so you'll see here on the side how each little detail is being cut individually so what I'm gonna do is I'm just sizing him down it looks fine for what I have the height is gonna be 4 but what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna leave off probably a little bit of his body just because I don't need it all for the design that I want to do so the only thing that you want to make sure that you do is make sure that you will your image before you cut it so that way it's only cutting one single thing so we see here and what I'm gonna do with this one it's actually I'm gonna go to my images and I'm gonna see if there is something cute that says dog mom you it looks like they're just more at the top so I think I love how this looks together I'm just gonna make sure if it's and to seven and what I'm gonna do is now I'm gonna ungroup it I'm gonna go through and what I'm gonna do here is I'm just going to change the color I think for this one I'm just gonna leave it black and I'm just gonna go ahead and make it now and you see right here it comes out as one whole image so I'm just gonna go ahead and connect my Cricut and cut it out
