Free text warp tool for Cricut and Silhouette
Warp & Skew bends your words into arches, circles, waves, bulges and more, right in your browser. Pick a shape, fine-tune it with a slider or drag handles to make your own, then download a welded, cut-ready SVG at the exact size you need. It works with any cutting machine that opens SVG files, including Cricut Design Space and Silhouette Studio.
You can also warp your own SVG design. Each separate shape in the file bends as its own piece, and the colors in your file carry through to the download.
Frequently asked questions
Can I warp text in Cricut Design Space?
Design Space's Warp needs a paid Cricut Access subscription. This tool is free, has over 20 shapes plus drag handles and a draw-your-own-line mode, and exports a standard SVG you can upload to Design Space.
Why are my letters welded together?
Overlapping pieces of the same color are welded by default so they cut as one shape. Turn off “Weld overlapping pieces” in step 4 if you want every letter as its own piece.
What does Tilt or Upright do?
Stretch bends the letters themselves to fit the shape. Tilt keeps each letter whole and turns it to follow the curve, like text on a circle. Upright keeps each letter whole and standing straight while it moves along the shape.
How do I make it iron-on ready?
Tick “Flip horizontally” in step 4 before you download. The file comes out mirrored so it reads the right way after you press it.
