Cricut Design Space Tutorial: Layers, Grouping & Alignment (Beginner Friendly)

In this Cricut Design Space tutorial, I’ll show you how to organise your layers, group and centre text, and use alignment tools to create clean, professional layouts. Using this month’s “Hope – Have Only Positive Expectations” design, we’ll go step-by-step through: Working with the Layers Panel (renaming and reordering groups) Grouping objects to create balanced text layouts When it’s easier to reload your file instead of undoing multiple steps Using shapes with alignment tools to reposition your design Create a stepped layout using the X axis for consistent spacing This tutorial is beginner-friendly and focuses on understanding the tools, so you can confidently edit and customise your own designs. 📌 Software used: Cricut Design Space v9.65.105 (A newer version was released shortly after recording – tools shown remain the same, but locations may change in future updates.)
