This is my first template. I have spent the day testing it. I put it on the test template site but have altered it slightly since. (I made the reindeer's antlers a tiny bit wider.) I have cut it on 100 - 160 gm card and it cuts fine. I used the slowest setting (1) and the yellow cap at thickness 33. I have posted a picture of a quick card I have made using the design. I cut the waste card in the middle a bit smaller all the way round and mounted it on sticky pads and stuck it back in the middle. It can then be decorated any way you like with stickers, decoupage etc. I designed the template using templates from the craft robo and drawing the rest. You can use it for whatever purpose you like and feel free to alter it how you like. Comments appreciated as it's my first template. Thanks, Wendy. Have added picture of my mistake. Tried to cut on mirror card on wrong side. Sent it through twice but still did not cut. However it left an embossed pattern which I think looks quite good. Have tried to take photo but its not brill as it is on mirror card which does not photo well.

Reason: Added another picture
OK - this one was designed as an 8x8, was Autotraced on an A4 canvas and saved, and I *hope* works for all. Having said that, I cut it as a 12x12 and it worked very well, but I wonder about some of the more lacy flakes in a very small size - ie for a card topper. If I get the time, I may play around with more solid flakes, specifically designed for a smaller size cutting - or anyone one else who cares to can give it a go and add a file here.

The first snow fell this morning, not much but enough to inspire me to make a few Christmas cards. I finished these frames a few days ago and thought they would be perfect.
Just a simple Christmas tree border. Cuts fine but it's fairly long so you may want to cut some off after cutting it out...that's if anyone can find a use for it
Just getting started on the Christmas journals. This is the 12 inch border for first page - which I designed with RM, so you can cut it on robo with a longer mat.
I've cut mine on Cameo. Apols for the usual rubbish photo - its Canford art paper, old gold. The capital O is a simplified 'Carrick'.
