Entering this into the following challenge:
Cooking with Cricut
Challenge #45: Sailboat
In honor of Columbus setting sail on this date in 1492, the challenged is to incorporate a sailboat or sailboat inspired theme into a project.Closeups:
DANGER DO NOT ENTER
Pirate ship & embossing
happy HALLOWEEN sentiment
Could have used the Paper Doll Dress Up Cricut cartridge which had a Pirate ship but no I chose to use the Disney Classics Cricut cartridge which had more detail & thinner lines on the sails. After 3 torn images I got it to work. First tried using some texture paper which I do not seem to be able to cut cleanly since the blade tears it easier.
Noticed something odd and wanted to know if anyone else had this & had noticed or not?:
My Disney Classics overlay template 3rd row 9th image is Captain Hook 1 and my overlay template has image of Figaro cat there just like is on 4th row 8th image
