I am new to this program and want to cut these little owls out of vinyl for glass Christmas ornaments. Can someone convert it for me? He is our school mascot. Thanks so much for the help - I need a learning curve, but wanted to get these out on Monday.

This is a good example of an image you can trace directly in scal. Click on the "trace image" button, and a window will pop up. Click on the browse button and find the file you want to trace. When you find and see your image in the little square, hit okay. Viola, the image should appear on your scal mat and should be ready to cut. I hope this is right. If not, someone else will surely be around to help.

It's the icon at the top tool bar with the tree and scenery

The trace image is only in version 2.

Thank you so so so much. I have cut the owl and it is perfect. Here is a picture of my project - I am still going to add the year to the ornament. Thanks for your help.
