This month has been a busy month with my creating ATCs and Stickers going back to my early days to present with favorite illustrations.
After creating the individual ATCs, I had to then set up onto sheets to be printed and cut. Then I took the time to catalog over 700 cards I have created by assigning numbers to them and creating a list using Excel and a photo reference using Word and tables.
Next are the stickers I've started working on. I had to figure out a way to make my stickers where my Scan n Cut machine can read an outline and then remember to use certain adjustments in the machine itself to cut just INSIDE the outlined area leaving a nice white border around the illustration. I wasn't able to find a tutorial or video on setting up for cutting so I had to figure all this out on my own which took a lot of trial and error. Once I found something that worked, I made myself a document I can refer back to along with step by step screenshots. I'm sure there are probably other ways to do this but at least I found something that worked for me.
As I sit and type this post, I am asking myself why am I creating stickers? I'm really not sure why but I think it's neat and something I might have a use for at a later time.
