Real clear instructions. Have been exploring free fonts again and there are so many good ones to choose from that make sayings/phrases awesome looking. Really like the one you chose.

Thanks all! This font Curlz MT is beautiful but might be a problem if you have to do smaller cuts...also did the Thanks Snow Much using the same font and it's in the same thread as this one for those that want to download it. You can either follow the link in the first post or go directly to it here.

Since I don't have Scal1 I've always done my designing in Ink and some scal2 users report issues trying to do this in scal so I thought this might help give another option.

Thanks! I can do this in Scal but haven't done it in Ink because I didn't know how.
