    Lucille how would I make a mat with an edge of offset snowflakes, like this one please?

    I have already worked out the small and large snowflakes, just would like to know how to put them around the edge of a mat with the offset.

    Snowflake and Border Frame

    Is this the sort of look you are after. If so, I will give you some guidance if that's ok with Lucille. As I use a MAC, the dingbats are not exactly the same as yours, but you will be able to produce something similar yourself. HTH

    Yes, but without the green please. It is so I can cut a mat with a snowflake edge. I can do without my punch around the page punches that never line up properly.

    Thanks

    There isn't a function that will do this for you in Studio, you will have to place the snowflakes yourself.

    I would do one line, then duplicate and rotate to get a second side.
    Line up the second line with edge of the first.
    Weld if necessary eg. overlapping the end snowflake.
    Select all and group
    Duplicate and rotate and position to make the square
    Select all and group again
    Now apply Offset path to get your outline.

    If there any bits inside the outline, ungroup or release compound path, you may have to do both depending how you make it.

    Now drag the out line away and your square of snowflakes, select all the bits and delete, now you have what you want a square shaped mat, with snowflake cut out's around the edge.

    There is a tutorial for using the trace options it's in the Studio folder, look carefully as some of the sub folders have more than one thread/tutorial in them.

    Is there a wish list for the Silhouette Cameo?

    Not being very artistic I have searched high and low for designs which are sport or gym related, such as cycling, running, girls and boys! Jogging, weights, spinning - actually anything ! Come to think of it, unifroms would be goos as well male and female, especially if they have a UK flavour
    I have ordered the new Designer update which will allow me to perhaps design something via CorelDraw and send direct to the Silhouette but I would have been happy to buy a cd with designs!

    I have downloaded 3d designs from the shop but there doesn't seem to be instructions to join everything together e.g. the wonderful flower pop up box. Am I missing something?
    Love love love my new machine, so much easier for me than the scan' n' cut
