Already have a collection of SVG cutting files? The Bellissimo CT1 lets you put your existing designs to work through Brother's Artspira app.

Once imported, you can personalise your designs using editing tools that allow you to:

Import SVG and FCM cutting files.
Resize designs to suit your project.

Send your prepared designs to the Bellissimo CT1 for cutting.

This is particularly useful for crafters who already own SVG files or enjoy creating their own digital artwork.

Best of all, these importing and editing functions do not require an Artspira+ subscription.

Enjoy the Convenience of Matless Cutting

Spend less time preparing your materials and more time creating with the Bellissimo CT1's matless cutting capabilities.

For selected materials and cutting modes, you can feed your material into the machine without first attaching it to an adhesive cutting mat.

Matless cutting is particularly convenient for projects using compatible adhesive vinyl, heat transfer vinyl, cardstock and printable sticker sheets.

Cutting mats are still useful for certain materials and projects, including lightweight papers, high-friction materials and intricate designs where additional material support is beneficial.

Having both matless and mat-based cutting options gives you greater flexibility when choosing how to prepare your projects.

Versatile Cutting Options for Different Projects

Choose a cutting method that suits your material and the result you want to achieve.

Half Cut

Cut through the top layer of compatible adhesive vinyl or heat transfer vinyl while leaving the backing material intact. This makes it easier to weed away unwanted areas and prepare designs for application.

Full Cut

Cut completely through compatible materials to produce individual shapes and project pieces. Depending on the material, a suitable adhesive cutting mat may be required.

Perforation Cut

Use a perforated cutting line to separate designs from compatible materials without an adhesive cutting mat. This is particularly useful for selected cardstock and paper craft projects.

Create Your Own Stickers with Artspira Sticker Maker

Turn your favourite illustrations, graphics and personalised artwork into custom stickers with the help of Artspira Sticker Maker.

Prepare your sticker design in Artspira, then print it onto compatible printable sticker material using a separate printer. Artspira adds registration marks that help the Bellissimo CT1 identify the correct cutting position around your printed artwork.

Depending on the sticker material and cutting method, you can create:

Half-cut stickers: Cut through the printable sticker layer while keeping the backing sheet intact.
Full-cut stickers using perforation: Create individual sticker shapes using the supported matless Sticker Full Cut method.

Custom printed stickers prepared in Artspira Sticker Maker and cut with the Brother Bellissimo CT1

Explore personalised labels, planner stickers, decorative stickers, gift packaging and more using compatible printable sticker sheets.

Please note: A separate printer is required. The Bellissimo CT1 cuts your printed stickers but does not print them.

Discover the Materials You Can Cut

From everyday craft materials to specialty finishes, the Bellissimo CT1 supports a range of materials for different creative projects.

Paper & Cardstock

Create decorative paper crafts using compatible lightweight paper, construction paper, smooth cardstock, textured cardstock, thick cardstock and glitter cardstock.

Selected cardstock can be cut without a mat using Perforation Cut, while lighter papers and intricate designs may benefit from an appropriate adhesive cutting mat.
