Remember: before you save to upload into Design Space or your cutting software, make sure to release the clipping mask (Object > Clip > Release) and change the “glitter” objects to yellow or whatever color you’d like as a placeholder.

I’m excited to launch this new series of “Quick Win” tutorials in our video tutorial library! They will all be actionable lessons you can watch in under 5 minutes. So they are perfect when you don’t have much time to spare, but want to keep improving your Inkscape skills.

In this Quick Win Tutorial, I’ll be showing you how to quickly mock up what it will look like to use glitter vinyl (or cardstock) in any design. Mockups can save you a lot of time and money by allowing you to envision what a design will look like in the colors and materials you’re planning to use so that you aren’t surprised (or disappointed) by the end product.
