PNG to SVG for Cricut — convert with colour, ready to cut
Convert a PNG to SVG for Cricut, Silhouette or a laser cutter — in one colour for a clean cut file, or with colour for printable artwork. A logo, an icon or a drawing is traced into a real vector that stays sharp at any size; you choose how many colours and how much detail to keep.

Choose an imageOpening the editor…
Your image is on its way. Work starts the moment it lands.
Three steps, nothing to learn.
Upload, let it run, download. The editor opens with your image already loading.
Drop the image in
A PNG, JPG or WEBP of a logo, line drawing, clip art or flat design.
Set colours and detail
Fewer colours and less detail give cleaner, smaller files; more keep subtle shapes.
Download the SVG
A real vector file of filled paths, ready for Cricut, Silhouette, Illustrator or a website.
Sharp at every size.
A PNG is a grid of pixels and blurs when enlarged. An SVG is a set of shapes, so it stays crisp from a sticker to a banner.
Real tracing
The image is reduced to a palette and each colour’s outline is traced into smooth vector paths — not a picture embedded in an SVG wrapper.
Colour count
From two colours for a stencil or cut file up to 24 for richer artwork.
Detail control
Low detail drops specks and smooths curves; high detail follows the original closely.
Cut-machine friendly
Flat, filled shapes are what cutting software expects for vinyl and paper projects.
Preview before you download
Compare the SVG with the original side by side.
Private
Tracing runs in your browser; nothing is uploaded.
Who it is for.
Zyvavo is built by someone who sells on Etsy and eBay, so these are the jobs it was made for first.
Digital download sellers
Turn your own drawings into SVG cut files and printables to sell on Etsy.
Crafters with cutting machines
Vinyl decals, stencils and paper cuts from a hand-drawn design.
Small brands
A scalable logo from an old PNG when the original vector file has been lost.
Print and signage
Artwork that stays sharp on banners, stickers and shop signs.
What it handles well — and where it struggles.
No tool is perfect, and any page claiming otherwise is selling you something. Here is roughly where the line sits.
Logos, icons, text and line art
Flat colours and clear edges trace into clean, editable shapes.
Illustrations with a few colours
Good results with 6–12 colours; tidy small stray shapes in an editor if needed.
Photographs
A photo becomes a poster-style image of colour bands. That can look striking, but it will not look like the photo.
Five things worth knowing.
The source decides most of the result.
- Start from the largest, sharpest version. More pixels give the tracer cleaner edges to follow.
- Use as few colours as the design has. A two-colour logo traced with 16 colours produces many tiny shapes from anti-aliasing.
- Remove the background first. Run the background remover so the background is not traced as a shape.
- Lower detail for cutting. Fewer, smoother paths cut faster and cleaner on vinyl.
- Check the licence. Converting artwork you do not own to SVG does not make it yours to sell.
Free, with no account and no limit. It runs in your browser, so it costs nothing to serve — and nothing to use. An account only matters for the AI tools such as the background remover, and new ones start with 100 credits free.
Answered.
How do I convert a PNG to SVG?
Drop the PNG in, choose the number of colours and the detail level, and convert. You get an SVG made of traced vector paths.
Is the result a true vector?
Yes. It is made of filled paths, not an embedded bitmap, so it scales without blurring and can be edited in vector software.
Can I use it with Cricut or Silhouette?
Yes. Flat, filled SVG shapes are what cutting software imports; fewer colours and lower detail suit cutting best.
Can I convert a photo to SVG?
You can, but the result is a stylised, poster-like image rather than a faithful copy. Tracing suits logos and artwork.
How many colours should I choose?
As many as the design really has. Two for a one-colour logo on a background, more for multi-colour artwork.
Why does my SVG have tiny specks?
They come from soft edges and noise in the original. Lower the detail, reduce colours, or start from a cleaner image.
Is my image uploaded?
No. The tracing runs in your browser.
Is the SVG converter free?
Yes — completely free, with no account, no sign-up and no limit on how many images you run. It works in your browser, so there is nothing for us to pay for. Credits only come into it for the AI tools, like the background remover and upscaler.
How big can the image be?
Up to 10 MB. Very large images are traced at about 1.2 megapixels, which is plenty for vector shapes.
Can I sell the SVGs I make?
If you own the original artwork, yes. Converting someone else’s design does not give you the right to sell it.
Everything else you can do to the same image.
Once a photo is open in the editor, every tool below is one click away — no re-uploading.
