Mission Statement
Thank you for checking out my blog. I started this blog to create a place where people are able to find inspiration and share ideas. I find myself surfing the web looking for inspiration that is unique and different. If I find an interesting tutorial I'll share it with you. I will include a "live" link back to the original blog, store or web site so that you may have the option to visit and learn more about the designer and other services, class or kits they may offer. By posting tutorials I am hoping to help inspire people that are interested in creating something fresh and new.

Terms of Use for my Personal Designs or Patterns.

    Hi,

    Please forgive me for sending a second message, but I am totally confused about how you get these images. So you buy them from the site, then you download them on to your computer and you print them out on to white cardstock, print them and cut them out? What is SVG? Thanks in advance for all your help, I just started blog hopping last weekend and discovered these cute images! america57@comcast.net

    HELLO Christine~

    Files in SVG "Scalable Vector Graphics" can be programed into a cutting machine. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scalable_Vector_Graphics.

    Some crafters buy SCAL "Sure Cuts A Lot" http://www.craftedge.com/products/products.html

    SCAL Tutorial and videos~ http://www.svgcuts.com/blog/about/official-sure-cuts-a-lot-video-tutorial-series/

    Some crafters buy MTC "Make the Cut" http://www.make-the-cut.com/

    Both have FREE 15-20 day TRIAL USE Periods. I suggest using one trial and then using the other and see which works best for you.

    I hand cut all my stuff. MOST web sites that sell patterns sell them in SVG for machine cutting and Adobe Reader for hand cutting.

    Hope this helps~
