What is free and what is paid

  • Creating, editing and previewing designs: free, no account needed.
  • The Print and Make starter sample: free download.
  • Production files for your own design: a one-time export from $5.99, shown before you pay. You sign in at checkout so you can download again later.

Honest limits

  • Photos are used as inspiration. We do not trace or copy arbitrary photos exactly.
  • The motifs are our own simple ghosts, pumpkins, bats, cats, moons and spiderwebs. Other characters can be drawn in the editor.
  • Files are checked for geometry, not for your machine settings: always do a test cut.
  • Wood and glue are not food-safe: keep candy wrapped or use a liner.

Questions

How do I start?

Write your idea or upload one or more inspiration photos, then choose Create My Design. You can also pick a starter project below.

Do I need design experience?

No. Start with a description or customize a starter project. Everything opens in an editor where text, shapes and sizes stay editable.

Can I use photos?

Yes, up to eight inspiration photos, each with an optional note such as “Keep this ghost style”. Photos guide the style; we do not copy them exactly.

Can I change the design?

Yes, within what the chosen project can make: text, names, sizes, the number and arrangement of motifs, and moving or resizing any element. Undo and History work as usual.

Do I need a cutting machine?

Not for Print and Make: you print at actual size and cut with scissors. Signs, coasters and boxes need a laser cutter (or a makerspace or cutting service); decals need a vinyl cutter such as a Cricut or Silhouette.

Which file should I download?

Laser cutters and most cutting software open SVG or DXF; Cricut Design Space and Silhouette Studio open SVG; printed projects use the 1:1 PDF. The export screen lists exactly which files your design includes.

Is the design free?

Designing and previewing are free and need no account. The Print and Make sample below is a free download. The production files for your personalized design are a one-time paid export.
