Instructions
Cutting Out the Heart Mandala
- Upload the Heart Mandala 1 in to design space.
- Size the Mandala to the size. you want to cut it out
- Now your Heart Mandala 1 is ready to be cut out
Next you will click on "Make It" and the prepare mat screen will appear.
Now if everything looks correct on it, click on the continue button
The next screen will be where you will select the type of card stock you are using. If you do not see the material in your material favorites, click on "browse all materials" to find the weight of cardstock that you are using. For example the rink Cardstock I used is medium weight, you will need to select "Medium Weight"..
Once you have Design Space set, you are now ready to prepare your mat. I used a brayer when placing the Cardstock on the mat, this helps in making sure that the paper is adhered to the mat and will help in keeping the paper from ripping or moving when it is being cut.
Assembling the Heart Mandala
- Starting with the bottom layer lay it on your workspace
- Then take the next layer
- and put foam glue dots on the back of it
- Place that layer on top of the bottom layer
- Next take the third layer
- put foam glue dots on the back of it
- place this layer on top of the last layer
- Then take the top layer
- put foam glue dots on the back of it, for this layer I used smaller foam glue dots
- then place the fourth top layer on
