YOUR GUIDE TO THE BEST FREE SVG FILES THAT ARE EASY TO USE WITH A SILHOUETTE OR CRICUT CUTTING MACHINE.

free svg files

When I first started crafting I felt like I was constantly shelling out money.  I purchased my cutting machine, my vinyl, my tools, and then when I went to make something I saw tons of SVG files that I also had to buy. Searching for free svg files was my main goal.

Eventually, this lead me on a journey of not only learning how to create my own SVG files but also finding the best spots to find Free SVG files.

While I now teach others how to create their own svg files in my signature course, 123-SVG, I have complied, added to, and organized this list over the years and I want to share it with you. 

This is my personal master list of places online that offer free SVG files regularly.  Use this list as a resource to find free SVG designs anytime you want.  Give this post a bookmark or pin it to your Pinterest board to hang onto it for future reference. 

Some of the designers below have their free files available for a limited time, some are for personal use only, and some are full of forever free SVGs.  Make sure to read the fine print of the individual site and designer to confirm the licensing and the length of the freebie. 

No matter what the fine print says, I do know though, that these spots are great for finding high-quality designs, that will cut smoothly on your machine, and be perfect to make beautiful crafts with.

Sometimes, especially as you are first learning and experimenting with your machine, it is nice to have a free svg file (or two) to practice with.   This free SVG file resource list will expose you to tons of styles, designers, and platforms. Now, let’s dig into the list of where to get Free (and cheap) SVG files, shall we?

Here are a couple of the most popular FREE SVG posts that we have:

 

Free SVG Files from Club Chaos Featured Designers

Inside our monthly membership Club Chaos we feature talented designers every single month.  They provide a bundle of exclusive files for our community and I get to chat with them one on one about their own personal designing journey. 

We talk about things like how they got started, what’s coming next, and what types of crafty supplies they really want to splurge on but haven’t yet. 

Plus it’s fun to find out things like their favorite food, what else they love to do, and a little more about their world.  Most of them also have their own freebies on their sites perfect for you to try out and download.

Chelly of We Can Make That loves paper crafts and I first found her when she posted the cutest diaper card SVG for a baby shower!  She does freebies and was also featured inside our Club.

Free SVG Files from Marketplace Platforms

Design Bundles

This site truly has it all!  I love that they have a huge bank of freebies that they switch out each week and their $1 events are amazing.  You can find clipart, digital paper, SVG files for ANYTHING you are looking for, and any type of digital art. 

Click on the image below to go right to the design section of the site.  I also love that they have a sister site called Font Bundles.  That is one of my favorite spots to find high-quality fonts.  Check out more of my favorite font spots here.

Creative Market

This is another online marketplace spot that has a large variation of designs.  I love having it at my fingertips in case I just can’t find exactly what I’m looking for with one specific designer.  They also have a free svg section that is switched out regularly.

The Hungry Jpeg

At the Hungry Jpeg you will find a weekly freebie.  The freebie might be a font, a design, or even a clipart.  I like the variety of never knowing what will be the special this week.

So Fontsy

This marketplace is packed full with quality designers and goodies that are perfect to use with a Silhouette or Cricut cutting machine.  The designers each have a week that they are assigned to provide free svg files for so you will get paper crafts, signs, designs for vinyl, and sometimes even fonts.  It is definitely worth checking out!

Creative Fabrica

Creative Fabrica is great because it has a little bit of a different variety of finds.  You can search for mock-ups (check out what those are here), free SVG designs, fonts, graphics, and more.  Their bank is HUGE!

Creative Fabrica - Premium Crafting Fonts, Graphics & More
Love SVG

Love SVG has a huge database of freebies.  One thing I love about their site is they do a daily surprise cut file.  It’s totally free and a fun way to spice up the digital freebies you are downloading.   There are tons of designs to browse and get inspired with!  No matter what style you are looking for my guess is they have something that might match it (or at least come pretty close).

Fellow Crafty Bloggers

One thing I found when I began this blog was an entire community of others in the crafty world who shared a similar love for creating beautiful things and sharing them with others.  In the spirit of community over competition (because let’s face it… there really is enough to go around) here are some of my crafty blogging buddies who also provide tons of FREE SVG files on their sites. 

Remember, when we light someone else’s candle it doesn’t put ours out… it actually makes us burn brighter together.

Free SVG File Blog List:

I’m sure there are a ton of other great spots out there too to find great SVG cut files but these are some of my go-to places and they should give you a great start to finding designs that fit your style and needs perfectly.   As I mentioned above make sure to check with the designer’s policies on when and how you can use their designs.  

Also on a side note, I just want to mention that just because you find something on google that doesn’t make it free.  Go through the additional step, click on the image, and double-check that it really is a free design.  

Designers work hard to provide quality files so if there is something that you love and you find it isn’t free, I highly encourage you to spend a couple of bucks on it.  That is what helps continue to support the designer by being able to provide free SVG files and goodies for everyone!

When you trace a design instead of purchasing it, or even share the file with someone who hasn’t purchased it you are literally stealing the art of that designer.  As a designer myself when I see that it just breaks my heart.  Even if the design is free, please click on the link and help that creator.  Every click counts…. promise!

OK, I’ll get off my soapbox now but I couldn’t talk about freebies without mentioning it.  Stealing in our digital world is so prevalent, and my designs have been victim to it too many times.  I can’t just sit back and say nothing.

Thanks for being here, supporting our space on the web, and don’t forget to show off how you bring your free SVG files to life!  Also, don’t forget to give this post a pin so you can easily find it in the future.  Until next time happy crafting, cutting, and chaos.

Still, looking for some great freebies or maybe a crafting home?  Over in our Facebook community we share links daily to designers that provide high-quality free SVG files for you to use with your Silhouette or Cricut cutting machine.   Come hang out and say hi!  We can’t wait to meet you!

Let your Pinterest friends know where they can grab the best free svg files!

    Thank you!!

    Yes, designers work hard to create and then share their creations so I’m fully behind supporting them whenever possible, whether it’s through paying them or recognition.
