Cutting Your Free SVG New Year Cut Files On Cricut
When you send your New Year SVG/PNG files to your Cricut Maker, Explore or Joy to cut, ensure you use your brayer to roll the paper, vinyl or card to adhere to the mat. Movement will affect the cut.

How To Build Your 2026 New Year Shadow Box SVG Cut Files
I have suggested an order on the files, which makes sense. Of course you can change the colours to fit your decor or scrapbooking theme.
Place the back silver layer face up, add sticky pads to the back of the teal layer and attach, now attach the white glitter layer; next, add the green, pink, and then white.
Note if you are using the xTool P2, Glowforge, you need SVG files to cut the image out of wood or acrylic. Or PNG or SVG to engrave. You can use these free downloads for personal use or see my commercial license page for more info on making products to sell for commercial use.
