Most of you have probably seen the pretty pail on Pinterest that is so simple, pink and girly. It inspired me to get out some of my pails and add a vinyl monogram. I wanted a script that was very feminine and I did not have one in my svg library of designs. I thought why couldn't I use my embroidery fonts? So I tried it and it worked. I set up my monogram in my embroidery software called Embird. I saved it as a jpg file (which is the type file pictures require). After I saved it on my computer I opened my Cricut software called SCAL (Sure Cuts A Lot). I used the command "trace image". I browsed and located the monogram that I had saved. When I hit the trace image the mongram showed up on my Cricut software screen. Then I hit the "cut" command. And voila there it was.....my girly monogram. So that means I can cut any fonts that I have in my embroidery library. It was easy peasy! If you have those 2 software programs you can do it, too!
This week is off to a great start....haircut & trip to the gym!
Have a wonderful Tuesday,
Karen
love the ribbon with the poms on it!
ReplyDeleteDo you know of a good Cricut cartridge to do monograms? I am new to Cricut and seem to miss out on the SCAL. Or is there something out there similar?
