Stencil
I've also used the craft robo to cut a stencil. These aren't as successful as I would like, the stencil is too thick for the machine. However, it can score the stencils. I'm finishing them off by using a soldering iron on glass.
This is a background in readiness for something - not sure what something though!
African Mask - Final Result
This is the final mask - somewhat different from the original.
I had to do a lot of work preparing this one for the craft robo. I created cutting lines in paint shop pro and had I cut them all, I would have ended up with lots of separate bits to be stuck back together. I just couldn't get my head around it. So, I printed it out and then drew the cutting lines I wanted on top of the print out in red. This meant I could erase and add on the image in PSP. The white bits in the middle were not wide enough when I first cut it so I had to make them wider. I'm pleased with the final result.
