Hello fellow scanners, hope you are ready for another video tutorial as I think that you are going to LOVE this one!
In this video I will be showing you how to create a 50s style pleated paper folded dress that looks just fab cut from patterned paper.
Ready to take a look?
No problem, here you go …

Fab isn’t it?
I am genuinely excited about sharing the process that I went through for this one but just before I do I would like to take a mo to remind you that I am using a Brother Scan N Cut cutting machine which is exclusively available in the UK from Create and Craft TV, so, if you don’t yet have a machine – please do pop over to the Create and Craft TV website and take a look to see if it would be right for you.
Right, it’s time to dim the lights, refill that mug and sit back and watch.
Ok, thanks for watching and hope that you have a go yourself.
Catch you again next time.
J :)

Hi John, keep trying this one but for some reason the dash lines always disappear, wondered if you or any followers have any idea what I’m doing wrong. Thanks for all your guidance.

Do they disappear in the same place that they disappear when I do it in the video?

Thanks again John another lovely card, sort of managed this one, lost my dashed lines and couldn’t get them back, think its more to do with canvas it sometimes wont ungroup, bad workman blames his tools and all that! Any ideas why the top part of the properties box (the measurements) disappears?

Thanks for the designing knowledge John, I upgraded my CM300 to a CM900 at Christmas, so have been using it more to justify buying it. Lol. x
