Shelly, I can see you got it!! They are already beautiful without the embellishments. Great job!

The card turned out great :)

My wife has been making the Tri Shutter one.

The files can be used for either SCAl 1 or 2. There are no layers but the cutout for the card and pattern pieces are all together in one file. Just need to position the artwork in SCAL to only cut out what you want.
Oops there goes my secret identity :D

The Dark blue sections are the Pattern pieces The pink is the cards. The cards also have score lines included. If you don't want those you will need to go into inkscape and delete them one by one.
When you import into SCAL you will need to position the SVG so that you cut what you want. Or even better, if you can use inkscape separate the pieces and save 2 files.
The Tri Shutter file is 12" wide so either cut on a larger mat or cut on the 12x12 and you should only have couple of small cuts to do by hand near the edge of your cardstock. You could also size it to fit the mat but just make sure you resize the pattern pieces also to maintain proportion.


Cheers

Craig,

Great idea about separating the file in Ink - I can do that!! It will save me paper too! I don't mind the scoring - it makes it easier for me. Thanks for all your help!

Thanks for that
I have been challenging my wife to make more man cards. Fathers day is soon in OZ. She finds it easy to make all those pritty ones but manly ones are a little more of a challenge. :D
