Keepsakes by design

I have added 2 new video tutorials - I have created these as I am testing out using layers in all my newly created SVG templates. The first one is  for MTC (make the cut) and shows how to import my svgs in a way that they import as the correct size and then how to make the layes so you can control them and hide the layers you dont wnat to cut.. The second one deals with control of layers in SCAL2 again how to switch them on and off for cutting.. Links to both tutorials are on the right coloumn of blog.. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My cutter files work on many machines.

Made this cutting template from a photo we took last year at the safari park and thought it ideal when I need to make a house warming gift it is 6x6 and I put it in a black picture frame with  white mount but could easily be add to a card as a topper also you might consider cutting in vinyl and obviously you could scale it up to make larger - although would not recommend scaling it down too much..

Finally sat down and finished off some of the templates that has been waiting for conversion and a littlee bit of tweeking here are a couple of them that I particularly like. The bird in the gilded cage is very fine cut and needs to be done using a sharp blade and a sticky mat - in addtion I suggest using neith a fibrous card nor a card with a bonded layer.. Hope you like them I had a friend use the frame on her scrapbooking page as a central mat. .
