Hello, my friends!
It's time for a new project share for Printable Cuttable Creatables!
Today I just want to share a fun tip for you,
when using Cricut Design Space.
Many of you will probably already know this but it's fairly new to me.
First, here is the card that I made:
When I'm using an image like this, that I know I want to print then cut,
I head to Cricut Design Space.
and then sizing all my layers accordingly.
Here's a look:
This allows me to then resize the owl image.
Then I decided that the owl would look nice in a circle.
So using the "Shapes" option again, I add a circle.
As shown in the photo above I sized the circle to 4".
I added the sweet arrow cut, resized it to fit my circle,
and positioned it under the owl.
I also make sure that all my elements are chosen as print then cut.
This intricate arrow was the reason that I was going to use print then cut.
My Cricut does a fabulous job with intricate cuts but this might be pushing it! ;o)
At this point I highlight the circle section, as shown in the photo.
If you look at the list on the right side you can see the ones that are highlighted.
Then I go to my "Flatten" option, which you can see in the lower right corner,
and I click on it.
As shown above, the complete project has been flattened,
I knew that I wanted to use this pretty heart paper for my background.
I cut my 8 1/2" x 11" paper to a 5 1/2" card base.
I printed the heart paper and cut a 5 1/4" square.
I then matted my finished circle with a matching piece of cardstock.
I adhered it to my card front with foam tape.
Flattening the layers helps to cut down on some of the bulk,
