hi had a play and did this in robomaster haven't yet cut it as i'm off to work no but thought i'd put it on. Don't know if it's any good or not. As this is my first time of posting a file i hope it works.. Fngers crossed here goes!!!!!
Sorry not sure on how to do screen shots Please take a look and let me know what you think
This is a Studio only challenge, so no autotracing, converting
The challenge is to use the Advanced Replicating options in Studio to make a Lace/Lattice Overlay template with overlapping shapes that can be used with the Intersect option in Studio to make lattice aperture cards, charms, bunting etc, so it needs to be bigger than a card.
If anyone needs or wants it I've written a tutorial and uploaded it to the Studio tutorial folder, it hasn't been tested so any you don't understand please PM me rather than fill up the thread with chatter, as I will amend the tutorial.
I hope you have as much fun as I've had over the past month, I managed to get 9 designs from 1 shape, by rotating it, welding squares, diamonds, circles etc to it.
To start the ball rolling here are 2 files I've made. 1 was using a Quatrafoil shape and the other a diamond shape.
Could people please make their templates at least A4 size so scrappers can use them
I just had a quick play with the quatrafoil shape and made this.
I've included a photo of what a lattice aperture card would look like using this template, then had a brain wave and Released the compound path, selected, copied and pasted the the outside line into a new document and turned it into a set of nesting shapes.
Its been a long time since I designed anything on my craftrobo - but I decided to play - firstly had to download Studio did not even know it existed - then I printed off Lucille cheat sheets - firstly I made the nesties- then on on to the lattice and finally onto a Framed Lattice - had fun playing thanks for the challenge will have to try and learn all the bits of this new studio now!!
I think I have attached them but its taken me 1hour 30mins to find the library I had saved them in
Sorry I have taken of the nesties and will work out how to put them elsewhere - hopefully I have added some photos.
first of thanks Lucille for such brilliant tutorials, I have finally learnt something that I have been struggling with in robo for ages!!
Brilliant challenge one is A4 and the other isn't, sorry had already done it before I saw the post, I'll have a go later to make it bigger
They are all lovely templates, I will have a proper look later
Anyway here are mine
Vanessa
ps have now added A4 size

Reason: adding file
I know, Christmas already!! I do, however, make Christmas cards all year round, so I thought I would have a play with a very simple Christmas tree shape.
Cuts fine although, as you can see, I didn't centralise the design so the bottom bit got cut off!!
yes Lucille, you were right, had a play with the original one I did and this is what I got, takes ages to cut and has lots of fiddly poke through bits, but didn't take too long with a pricking tool to get the tiny bits out
