Re: Help.. word book - LONDON
Dondi, here is an example of a wordbook construction in svg. If you know how to use Inkscape you can see from the file how each page is created. You can most likely create it in ecal/scal as well once you see how it is done. It is pretty simple since you:
Here's a pic of the individual pages from the file to give you a visual of the construction.

- make a rectangle,
add the letter you want, and make a shadow layer of it
add the shadow letter to the edge of your rectangle…path/union
Use the second letter is for cutting separately to afix on top of the one you the page
Here's a pic of the individual pages from the file to give you a visual of the construction.

Hi
What software do you design in normally ? Assuming you are going to cut this out what software will you be using to cut with ?
What size do you want the total book to be ?
Also what font do you like for the letters?
Bank holiday here in UK tomorrow so I may get a chance to knock something together.

Morning Donna
Raining here in London today - shame yesterday was beautiful! Anyway I haven't used the design space for Cricut in a long time since it was so restrictive. It is why I moved on from the Cricut to other machines that did not prescribe how and what I could use. That said I see some great things produced with the machines.
If I remember correctly, as long as you own the cartridge with an alphabet - and you have access to a basic rectangle - you can place them both on the same page and weld them together here is a link to a tutorial by Susan Blue Robot - which seems to show all the steps you need.
http://www.susanbluerobot.com/2008/01/c ... -book.html
As for the size - well I decide what I am wanting to put in it and size accordingly. If you create it first then look at the measurements of the first page you can always resize afterwards. Suggest cutting from copy paper first just to try it out and save the good paper for the actual project
Good luck with it and look forward to seeing your pictures

Morning
Sorry started new contract yesterday - so completely floored by the time I got home last night - left at 5.30am and walked back in the door at 7.45pm -
Anyway I use inkscape to design in - 1st it is free !! and 2nd it is fairly intuitive to work with! there are a ton of tutorials around on youtube etc regarding it and lots of people use it.
You can also design in SCAL - same principle - think whatever software (that produces SVG) that you are comfortable with will be best for you
I do remember designing a word book with the Cricut - think it was the earlier version which loaded onto my pc. Not sure about this new stuff where you have to be connected to the internet to work - seems another type of restriction to me!
As papasue said - it is just a rectangle welded to a letter on the end - the trick always is lining it up but Susan BlueRobots method works well
have a great day
Hey ho! Off to work I go
- well I do work in IT
