John from Gentleman Crafter has today posted some free lattice cutting files on his blog Here.
I’ve been thinking about doing some lattice designs for a while but frankly as we do not have an align and distribute function in canvas I gave up on my attempts.
He has also kindly included a basic lattice template so I thought I would show you what you can do with it in Canvas.
Here is an example of what I will show you in my video.
So if you want to follow along please go and download the cutting file from John’s blog (link above).
I forgot to say in the video you can also weld a heart frame into the middle of the design top right to create a centre frame too.
Using one of the spare duplicated hearts make an outset frame, select both and choose divide.
Drag this new heart frame into the middle of the top right lattice design, centre both, select both and choose weld.
This is what it should look like.
I also used the same functions I showed you in the video to turn text into lattice text. Just have a play, as I said in the video so long as you have kept a copy of the gentleman crafters free template you cannot really do anything wrong and if you do overwrite it by mistake just go and download it again.
This is a card I’ve made for my brother in law using the free FCM cutting file I offered a few days ago.
I duplicated one of the designs and made a border and an outset mat. I think it’s turned out ok.
Here’s the step by step if anyone is interested.
When I started doing the you tube videos for the ScanNCut I just wanted to share my thoughts and how I was using the machine and the online canvas software. I thought I may get one or two subscribers as this is a new machine but never did I think that after only 3-4 weeks of having this machine and trying to make video tutorials that I would have 130 subscribers.
So to all of you who have subscribe and contacted me, thanking me for them I thought I would say thank you back by offering you a free cutting file of some shapes I made in Canvas.
Ive coloured them so that you can see them better on screen.
I have put them in drop box here hopefully if this works.
I hope you like them.
