Re: Cupcake wrappers
I did a couple of tutorials for Inkscape 0.46 a while ago. A basic pattern with lines for curving fonts/images is also a couple of posts down in the first link. http://forums.surecutsalot.com/viewtopi ... 33&p=25011 and http://forums.surecutsalot.com/viewtopi ... =17&t=5232
You can do this either directly in SCAL2 or in Inkscape. HTH

Re: Cupcake wrappers
I have PSP 9 and 10 and although I can choose under preferences to read svg's I cannot save as svg's. I use Inkscape 46 and have fewer problems.Jayne wrote:....and can they be done in PSP or do i need inkscape
But may use 47
Re: Cupcake wrappers
Ive just read the tut and zilch...doesnt mean a thing to me........are you doing all that path stuff in SCAL or some other programme as path in SCAL is greyed out for me?
darn it, i was hoping i could do my own...

Re: Cupcake wrappers
Ok, just download this inkscape thing and it means nothing so here come the questions...
I assume i am importing the image of the wrappers, the one with all the lines...when i imported it, it was tiny, so what size do i make it...?
how do i make objects?
Is there a way of making the cut where the flap is inserted a little longer as the flap doesnt fit in the cut?
Also, sorry to be a pain but when you reply could you use a larger font as i am struggling to read this very tiny print....thanks

Re: Cupcake wrappers
The wrapper isn't tiny, you are probably zoomed out in the magnification. You can use Control 4 or Control 5 to zoom in on it.
I would just open the file and do a Save As with a new name then work from there. If you import an svg into Inkscape, it will import it into a Group, and you will need to use Object/Ungroup before you can use any of the Path options from the menu.
Your internet browser should have options that you can change so that you can see the text larger, I don't think I can change the default text size, and I probably won't remember to change my text in every post. If you need help on how to change the browser, let us know which one you use and we can give you more specific directions.
