Course Description
Overview
This class focuses on digitizing your lettering designs in the simplest way possible to give you numerous opportunities to use that one design. With this method, I will show you how you can use your digitized lettering specifically for cutting machines by Silhouette or Cricut, which will allow you to create a multitude of products.
I will walk you step by step through the process of digitizing your lettering with either your iPad or your paper designs and give you the flexibility to use whichever software you have accessible. I will show you how to digitize your lettering in Adobe Illustrator, the Silhouette Design Studio, and the Cricut Design Space.
