Long weekend crafting begins!


Hi there! Happy almost 4th of July (or Canada Day even!) - for me, long weekends always mean PROJECTS. And I promptly started on a scalable vector I'd been working on. I took it to the Cricut and cut the card out of 80lb basic office cardstock and lined the front panel with some thinner black cardstock. I did have to reposition some of the pieces manually once the black background was in place.

I'm definitely a bit overzealous when it comes to personal projects... I think for ease of cutting again, I would make the stripes thicker. While I am happy with the outcome, it took quite a while cutting it on a slower speed, removing the negative pieces, pasting...etc. I think a lot of that could be rectified with thicker stripes. We will have to see some other time!
