Hello Quietfire Design digi-fans! Betsy here on the blog today bringing you my first ever digital cut file project! WOW! I was amazed at how easy it was.
This is the SVG file that I used:
I have a Brother Scan N Cut so the program I was using for my project was CanvasWorkspace.
I simply started a new project, clicked on the SVG icon and browsed for my file, which in this case is: Today You Will Rule The World - Coffee. I clicked ok and this is what I saw on my screen:
I went through the prompts and over to my Scan N Cut and the machine cut it out. I used a glitter paper. I found there was some layer separating with this paper, but on the whole it cut out fine.
In order to take my letters off the cutting mat and adhere them to my card, I needed to have a circle guide for my letters. I measured the inside space of the letters and it was 3 1/4". I used a round cutting die of that size and cut a piece of masking paper. I centered the mask onto my background paper and adhered my letters around it.
Then, using a ruler as a guide, I adhered my "coffee" in the center.
My background paper is 5 1/2" square, my card base is 6" x 6" in a light aqua blue. The paper pack that I was using had a piece of paper with the coffee cups on it. I simply cut one of the cups out, adhered it a piece of white card stock and popped it up on foam tape to the card. Then I added some espresso colored gems. And that finished my card!
