Rebecca,
Great question! It should work for the baby bug if you put your design on the top half of it and then choose the 12 x 12 mat in SCAL. I don't have a baby bug to test with so I can't say for sure.

thank you Kay! I wanted to report that I just tried it on my baby buy, just like you suggested (setting the virtual mat at 12x12 which I always do anyway to "squeeze" that extra chunk of cutting area at the bottom LOL) and it worked great.
I love your blog and thank you for sharing this template!

If anyone wants one for Illustrator I created one. Thank you so much Kay for coming up with this.

I am mentally challenged, because this isn't working for me. I obviously don't know what I'm doing!

Make sure you are setting the default size to 12 before you import and are not turning off the base layer before you save the svg. The instructions have to be followed exactly and these are the 2 mistakes people seem to be making most often. I have screen shots and instructions on my blog as well. Hope that helps.

Susana, Thanks for reporting back. That is good to know.
Silvertip, Thanks so much for making an Illustrator template. I have had lots of questions from AI users and it was going to be awhile before I could brush back up on Illustrator to do this. If you have a blog or something I could link to, I would love to point people to this from my blog, please let me know.

yensid,
When you say it is not working, what are the symptoms/results you are getting? The instructions have to be followed exactly for this to work, but if you tell me what is happening, I can probably tell you what you need to do differently.
