Good morning...I have another file to share.  I have been learning the new feature in SCAL2...Print and Cut.  Thanks to a blogger: Paper Pastime and DLHill,   she had this video and a written tutorial for Print and Cut in Scal2 that is very easy to follow and I thank her so much for this.  Now, to be honest, since I am on vacation in Kansas (have been here since December 2010 and ready to go home!) I have not had the opportunity to test this due to my Cricut Expression is at home.  I'm soooo excited about getting home and using my new toy...I upgraded from a Cricut Personal to a Expression.

Here is two scut2 files....one with a oval and another square.  I intentionally used a digital that you would have to color in with watercolors, chalk or whatever you desire.  My printer does not have any colored ink and it's sooo expensive that I prefer to print in black and white and than color in.  Or you can use Cri-Kit Gel Pens for the outlining.

Here is another digital both as line art and colored in to share with you ... again using box.net for my downloading source.  I am using Photoshop Elements and a little of paint.net for the coloring effect.

Here is the files to use:

This is a digital file to share that I have been working with both in png and jpeg format along with the colored pieces.  I am not sure how to do all this thru the new format on box.net so I am going to download the links too.

Good evening ... trust your day was a good one and you created some new things.  I spent the afternoon coloring a digital stamp and sharing it here.  If I knew how to do the print and cut on SCAL or MTC I would include all this in a cut file.  Something more to learn, hopefully soon.  I am learning how to use Abode Photoshop Elements 7 and the tablet that came with it!

The above is in png and jpeg format.

Hi everybody...I hope you all had a great Christmas and a wonderful New Year.  I have been in Kansas since before Christmas and looking forward to going home in four weeks.  I have spent a great time with my two wonderful granddaughters but I have some things to get done at home.  I find that my car needs new tires, medical prescriptions need to be reordered and applying for medicare since I will be turning 65 this year.

I have treated myself to a new Cricut Expression and would like to get home to try the machine out.

I have created a cardfile in scut2, svg and mtc for your personal use.  First here is the picture of what I created.
