Freebie Friday! 07/01/2011

Hi Friends!

I have an opportunity for more freebies for you. Keep reading! This week's freebie is my "Rainbow Cloud" illustration. You'll get FOUR version! The Print & Cut version (a.k.a. clip art), the Digi-Stamp version (a.k.a. coloring page), the Cuttable SVG version (a.k.a. paper piecing), and the Digi-Patch version. What's the difference? Well, there is more helpful info below.

The file above has layers that look like this image below.

I don't have an animation for the cuttable this week. Visit my YouTube page to see past "How To" animations regarding paper piecing with Cuttables!

When you download the "Rainbow Cloud" files they will be accompanied by a "Read Me" text file with all of the copyright information. In short, please don't share and please credit me, Andy Bauer at The Digi Street, with a link back to my shop or my blog.

These paper crafts were made using my "Elephant" cuttable SVG, available here.

"Cuttable SVGs" are SVG files layered specifically for use in cutting machine software to cut the illustration's shapes out of paper. Then, by layering the shapes, you add dimension to your paper crafts.

Freebie Friday! 06/03/2011

Hello Friends!

So, last week I introduced my first Cutable SVG file and I got some great feedback. I've made some adjustments to this week's freebie, some sassy slingback heels, to make cutting and piecing the artwork together much easier.

Here's another short :46 second musical animation demonstrating the piecing process. You'll notice how the bows are separate from the shoes. That is so you have the option to add dimension to the bows by adhering a foam tab to the back of those pieces. Watch it here!




For those cutting, you'll get the SVG file of these cute shoes. And, for those coloring, you'll get a digi-stamp version of the shoes which is a BW (black & white) PNG file!

When you download this file it will be accompanied by a "Read Me" text file with all of the copyright information. In short, please don't share and please credit me, Andy Bauer at The Digi Street, with a link back to my shop or my blog.

The Slingback "Print & Cut" file (which is already colored for you) is available at my shop.

To get this freebie, sign up for the The Digi Street Newsletter here and you’ll receive a confirmation email with a link to download the files.

And finally, if you enjoy my art, please vote for me for the Top 100 Digi-Stamp Sites! Thanks a million.
