Measuring the Middle
Have you ever had an image that you wanted to have a specific part of it a certain size? Well, it can be kind of time consuming to get it just right using just the rulers or trying to eyeball it with trial an error. Well, today's tip is a sure fire way to make it quick and easy to get it exactly how you want it. For instance, if I want the back wheel of this bike to be exactly 2 inches, I can create a square by clicking on the rectangle on the left toolbar, then a secondary toolbar will appear across the top. I can select square and just create the 2 inch square. Then I need to select the entire object, in this case the bicycle and just use the handles on the corner to adjust it until the wheel fits perfectly inside of it. Now, I can just delete the square and cut out my image. For more information about creating a Square in the precise size you want, be sure and watch the Drawing a Square video. Drawing a Square I hope this tip will help you make the images whatever size you want, regardless of what portion you are adjusting.

Thickening a Cut Line
Many times we have a font or image that we want to cut, but the line is just so thin it either doesn't cut well, or it cuts, but is so fragile that you can't remove it from the mat without it just disintegrating or tearing, even if you use the Pazzles Spatula. There is good news! You can thicken those lines with a little trick using the Outline Tool.

Engraving Tool: Autumn Wall Hanging
I’ve lived in a few places while in the Air Force and I have to say that fall in Georgia is the best I’ve seen. The colors are just beautiful, but green is still present, which is one of my favorite colors. For this project I used an old canvas frame. I took the fabric off and painted the frame black. I must admit I couldn’t decide what color I wanted to make the frame, but the black does make the copper metal pop. The frame I used is approximately 11” x 14” from side to side and top to bottom.

Spiral Text Ink Spot Cards
Making and sending cards is one of my favorite things!

Today I'm adding a few more cards to my bulging stash with these spiral text ink spot cards. They are super easy to make, but pack a punch of autumn with the pretty colors and tiny leaves. I must admit, the tiny leaves are my favorite part.
