Scraps Of Info

“I manipulated the Peartree cut file (floral bunny ears) to fit my project. Three large flowers positioned below the bunny ears were removed by positioning the cut file in the bottom quadrant of the software, and therefore outside of the cut area. This also saved time and paper. A great tip for manipulating your cut files and getting more from your supplies.” ~ Deb
