CRICUT & GYPSY

Gypsy Wandering

Shoes cut @ w 2.53 x h 1.64.

Shoe Shadows cut @ w 2.79 x h 1.74.

Gypsy Font

(I love this font)

"A" cut @ w 1.o x h 0.89.

"Grandmother's" cut @ w 3.47 x h 3.76.

These numbers are after the letters were turned and moved together..then welded together.

To get the arch I built the letters around the oval after I moved it over the card base template where I wanted it to be... that way it was just the right size when I cut it... I moved it before I cut it so I could place all my dark brown objects together for laying out my papers.

"Shoes" cut @ w 1.64 x h 0.72 after the letter were moved together and welded.

George

Oval cut @ w 5.65 x h 6.59.

After the oval was cut I laid it on my card background..then marked where I wanted to trim it...the leftover pieces of the oval I used on the inside.

This is what my mat looked like when I cut the images... I put a brown piece of paper 4 1/2 x 11 down the left side...and a 4 x 4 1/2 piece of paper in the top right corner for the shoes.. I also put a 7 1/2 x 6 inch piece of patterned paper over the oval...so all the items cut out in one cut...

Often at the present the welded items won't cut with the non welded items... leave all your paper on the mat...make sure you have saved your file... delete all the non welded items from your mat then cut again... your welded pieced will cut then...when prompted to save changes choose don't save... then you still have all your cuts when you return to this file.
