Whether you’re making a gift or decorating your space, one thing is clear for Likcut users: finding good cuttable designs isn’t always easy. Sometimes, inspiration hits when you least expect it—maybe you saw a cool image online, or a funny mug design, and wished you could turn it into something your Likcut machine could cut.
Well, here’s the good news: with a little help from ChatGPT, you can.
In this article, I’ll walk you through a real example of how to go from "That’s a great design!" to "I just made it with my Likcut!" — all without needing any fancy software or design experience.
1. Spot a Design You Love? Capture It.
The Example:
Let’s say you saw this image of a mug featuring a relaxed cartoon dog holding a beer, with the phrase:
“It’s not a dad bod, it’s a father figure.”
It's charming, funny, and perfect for a Father’s Day gift. But how do you get that design ready for your Likcut machine?
What You Can Do:
Take a screenshot or save the image.
Upload it to ChatGPT and ask to isolate the character or design.
ChatGPT can remove the background, separate the design from the mug, and give it a clean cut-ready image file.
You’ll usually receive a transparent PNG or even an SVG file—exactly what you need for your Likcut software.
2. Make It Cuttable: From Image to Vector
Likcut machines work best with clean, sharp lines—especially SVG files, which tell the machine exactly how to move the blade.
Here’s how you can turn any picture into something your Likcut can work with:
Simplify the image: Ask ChatGPT to convert it into an outline version or black-and-white silhouette.
Request SVG format: That way, you can directly upload it to your Likcut software and get cutting.
Customize it: Want to remove the text or keep just the character? Just say so, and you’ll get a custom version.
3. See the Results
Below is the SVG version of the original mug design, now fully prepared for use with Likcut.
Whether you want to make stickers, iron-on transfers, or wall decals — this file is ready to go.

Pair with other materials: Try your new designs with heat-transfer vinyl, printable sticker paper, or even felt.
6. Final Thoughts

Try it for yourself and see where your creativity takes you.
