    Anyone with software they love?

    Ok, sounds like SBE is the user friendliest as far as ease goes. I'm keepingit then adn hoping to get pro one day. LOL Or a paid version. I use CoralDraw x4 for turning to eps. I just found Irfanview on this site. I have trouble with it not reading some files but it has made life easier as I sort out files and place them in to new folders. Does anyone have ar eally good organizing system? Do you use numbers, letters, names...what to organize your files??? I'm really trying to get through the free stuff I've gotten and organize it so I can save time when cutting. Thanks for any and all tips! Lacey

    New Me here!

    Hi Everyone! I'm new here today and thought I would post a quick intro. I have ran my own business for the last 6 or 7 years, I started out making Retired Racing Greyhound Collars, added a line of Embrodiered Silks or dog capes, t-shirts and other monogrammed items. I just grew into Vinyl my new best friend! I have a Creation PC Cutter and am learing how to use it! LOL I want to vector images, cut and weed, just play around with my new cutter. I'm no artist and that's the issues so far. I have 4 children, two retired racing greyhounds, one husband and lots of work. I live in Grand Rapids, MI and am looking forward to meeting and learning new things from everyone. Hoping to learn enough to help other new ones later on!!! Thanks for having me, Lacey

    zebra license plate

    I love all animal prints now! LOL I bought a really cute giraffe print for daughter. I think I may have animalitis...but my fav now is giraffe. Wish we could find that as well. LOL I have a question for you...when doing other things like mugs, etc would you use the same vinyl as you use for your banners? Do you have to do something special to seal it? Just curious because I have only done two plates as practice plates and not used them at all! LOL Thanks, Lacey PS is this the size of a license plate or do I need to figure out how to make a template? I have not yet looked!

    Plus Size Boutique Banner

    I guess my thought had been if they had an issue with the name, it would have been with Large and Lovely! LOL Her PLUS Him was tame to me compared to the prior name. I did not think at all about more people viewing it other than me or my family's view...and it can be taken offensive. I would never want or intend to offend anyone ever! I think I will run with this: NOW OPEN Her PLUS Him Consignment Shop Clothes Sizes 18 to 56 ([move][/move]using a fancy Font) Will also check spelling prior to cutting, made that mistake before! LOL Thanks again! Lacey
