Has anybody tried to create any word blooms using SCAL? Or, do you know where there are some for download? Since I have the Expression now, I'd love to be able to cut some with chipboard.

Thanks!
Suz

It's another word for a word book. Here's a link to a website that carries them.

I've just watched a tutorial with them being done on the CDS software so was wondering if they could be done with SCAL. I've just started using SCAL.

Thanks!

wreed06...yes, that's exactly what I was looking for. Did anybody post any directions as to how they did it? Thanks so much!!

Tracy,
You'll find the directions for doing these in DS at http://susanbluerobot.blogspot.com/2008 ... -book.html

I've been playing with it on my trial version, but, I can't seem to get it to work. Not sure if some features are disabled in the trial version but, I can't get the backgrounds to show.

Don't know about directions. You might ask Beanie who created the Baby post.

Ok..so much for my F. It cut fine while on the screen. I saved it and now when I open it up, I have an n and my F. I used the square that is in Wingdings for the beginning and stretched it and welded the F to it. Anybody have any ideas why?

none with scal, I did do one with my son's name using the design studio, but I doubt you would want the file since his name is brad, unless you have a brad. :D
