Hey...I'm completely new to Sure Cuts A Lot, SVG files, and this forum!! I've been looking for different objects (i.e. toy airplane, tractor, karate kid) and I'm finding a lot of cute stuff on different people pinterest boards labeled "SVG" or even "Cricut" but they aren't actually SVG files. How do I take their file and make it work for me??
Thank you for any help...and patients with my questions that are probably so juvenile to most of you!

This is a video done by svguts that shows you how. He uses SCAL2 so it may look a bit different from yours but the way to do it hasn't changed much. I hope this gets you started. If you have problems come on back and add the version of SCAL and the cutter you are using for the fastest help.

OH I do have SCAL2 so this should help me! Thank you!!
I watched a video last night trying to learn how to layer (not sure if that's what I even need) but Im still confused! lol
I would like to do a girls monogram with a frame around it. I know I could cut them separately but wondered if there was a way to cut them together.
