I keep seeing swirls all over the place on LOs, cards, TV, carrier bags. So I have spent the past 2 weeks learning to do swirls in Illustrator. This was started in Illustrator, moved to Inkscape for drawing bezier curves etc and then saved as JPEG and traced in RoboMaster.
It is intended for a LO and I have included a separate butterfly to decorate as you choose.
I haven't tested it yet, I do have a LO in mind for the weekend, but if anyone cuts it before then please tell me if it needs tweaking.
Finally, my first attempt at a challenge, Here is my attempt at the June challenge. It is hand drawn and traced in robomaster, can be used intact or broken apart and used seperatly. Had to send as a zip file as it was too large to send any other way
I cant test cut it as my hubby has moved me cutting mats and cant remember where he has put them, all he remembers is that they are somewhere safe. We have searched the house for them.
Hope you like it

This is one I did a few months ago but lost from pc when it crashed. I have just found is on external harddrive lol.
This was designed in Illustrator CS2 then saved as .dxf to bring into RM.
The pink is to cut out as a layer the black was what was lef when I ungrouoed in cs2 and I thought you may want to use as an aperature in a card maybe.
I couldn't upload this swirl GSD file to my previous post (along with the cards I made from it) as I was only allowed a maximum of 5 attachments. I'm uploading it now in case it is useful.
Love all the other challenge swirl designs so far btw, they're all so classy, and Dixie your faux chipboard effect looks really great.
I've had roberta since Nov 07 and these challenges are great just at the learning stage so i would like to say a big thankyou to all involved and probably with your help i will be as good as you lot SOMEDAY. Here is my challenge entry hope it cuts okay as i require a new blade and can't test it.
