Such a beautiful vintage Santa card, I love all the embossed layers and the inking .... lovely Patti!!! :)
Hi Patti!
I check your blog every single day, and have for a couple of years. I LOVE your creativity. I'm just wondering what I would need to get started with SCAL program? A Cricut or something similar? And do you buy the SCAL files online? Stores? Thanks! I'm very interested, your items look like you spend days on them! Carrie

Hi Carrie
thank you for your inquiry - feel free to contact me for more details...regarding SCAL - you need to purchase the computer program and the SVG cut files are also availble from various sites: my favorite site is SVGcuts.com so if you click on the link located on my top left side bar - you will get to their site. They will have info on SCAL and tutorials for using SCAL. You will now need to have a separate cutter which will be explained also on SVGcuts.com as the Cricut can no longer be a tool for cutting. Hope this will anwer your immediate question. Of not, feel free to contact me further.
my best
Patti
Very lovely card once again.
Thank you so much for the prompt reply and all the info! I spent most of the night looking through the svg. site. Wow. I'm sure I will have lots of questions, so I appreciate the offer to contact you. Your stuff is THE BEST. <3
What a cute santa. love all the different textures. I don't own a digital cut machine yet but you are really tempting me with all these lovely cards and projects from cut files.
