In this video I explain and show you how I made the template for the end panel of the ScanNCut machine to enable me to make a pattern to use for a dust cover.
I show you from start to finish how I made it and I will be giving one away free to anyone in the UK who leaves me a comment here on this post.
The name of one person will be drawn two weeks after the blog post goes live which is today Sunday 3rd May 2015.
I would ask you to please like, share and subscribe to my Youtube channel and you will be kept up to date with any videos I post.

The ScanNCut pattern template is on the Cutting File page here on my blog
Thanks
So despite having a rhinestone kit from a previously owned cutting machine, I gave in and bought the ScanNCut kit.
Last week I activated it and had a play with it, it is very easy to use. The kit comes with some preinstalled shapes, letters and numbers that have been designed for use with the rhinestones in the kit, so as such they cannot be resized as this would affect the size of the cut holes.
However using the screen shot method that I showed in a recent video I was able to resize one of the design in Inkscape and as it was my intention to cut the design from card it didn’t matter about the size of the holes.
I chose a butterfly and duplicated it 3 times and positioned 2 of the shapes onto a rectangle shape which would form the front of my card, the third shape i was able to resize using Inkscape.
I have done a basic rhinestone test cut using the rhinestone kit and Ive made a 2 part video showing the full process, from activating the kit to choosing a design and cutting it out.
I hope you find it helpful wether you own the kit or not.
These two photos show the design I cut in the video and the card I made. #gallery-3373-2 { margin: auto; } #gallery-3373-2 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align: center; width: 33%; } #gallery-3373-2 img { border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } #gallery-3373-2 .gallery-caption { margin-left: 0; } /* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */
