Worth a look... (You Tube)

**MaryAnne** · 15-03-2011, 12:41 PM

Star of May (who has been doing cards on You Tube for ages) has a series of Silhouette tutorials for cards that you might enjoy - this one has a nifty trick for altering a font to cut out letters from a card front without the bits falling away, if that makes sense

Thank you MaryAnne, I've added this and her other tutorials to our list in the Tutorial folder.

I think all of them are quite good - and it sounds like she will be doing ore of them, so def. one to book mark. Watching her go thru the process is really helpful for many, although she does sometimes change her mind mid step and when that happens you really have to concentrate to make sure you catch all the steps

I'll be keeping an eye out if she does more. I don't mind that she changes her mind or makes mistakes, it shows she is human like the rest of us, I can find the undo button without even looking

sometimes I even give up and start over.

Thank for the link. I too have altered letters so I don't loose the middles. I use the method shown and I also double click on a letter (after I have released the path of a word) I click the nodes and by careful selection I have been able to 'open' a letter O so the centre is still joined to the card.

I will try to upload an example.
