ScanNCut Tutorials

Got a Brother ScanNCut machine and not sure how to use it? No problem!

These ScanNCut tutorials for beginners will take you through all the steps to start making beautiful papercraft projects with your machine.

The ScanNCut help guides on this page currently come in video format only. My team and I are in the process of creating additional written versions and hope to have them finished by the end of August 2025.

If you’re looking for specific crafts to make rather than general machine and CanvasWorkspace tutorials, check out this huge collection of project ideas instead. The tutorials for each project are shown using a Cricut, but they can all be made with ScanNCut machines too.

While our entire collection of SVG designs can be used with a ScanNCut, as of February 2025 we changed our process to include additional ScanNCut-optimized versions with all new products (look for the “03” and “04” versions within your download folders).

We’ve also gone back and updated all free SVGs and most of the gnome SVGs to include these optimized versions too.

Still need help with your ScanNCut? Get in touch and we’ll try our best to help. 🥰
