I typed in Tyler's name and cut it out of copier paper. That was fun - and I hadn't even done anything with it, yet! Then I wanted to see how it cuts a custom design, so I pulled a jpg I had on my harddrive and voila! so easy and so cool!
Here is my 'test run':
No credits, I downloaded this card online, the papers are construction and copier paper... but that's part of what's so cool - nothing special needed!
I chose the Silhouette because I wanted a die cutting machine that would do what I wanted, not what some cartridge supplied. And I didn't want to have to buy catridges. I went to art school - I can design my own stuff and I have the internet to download what I'm too lazy to design. I wanted the flexibility to do what I want to do.
Wait -- did I say.. I LOVE IT? lol
I'm working out how to do all the things I think its capable of. I'll be back on with more goodies as soon as I get some done.
I got a Silhouette SD for Christmas and have been struggling to figure it out. I did get a few things cut today. I think if I just keep playing I'll get familiar with it.
ReplyDeleteYou sure did great.
Belated Happy Birthday and I'm following your blog.
Hope you post more Silhouette items and maybe a tip or two or three. :)
