Cyndie's Amazing Templates

[MySweetPetunia]

Cyndiestamps was so generous to share her templates - these are her creations - she's kind of a genius. I thought I'd pin them here for easy reference.

Please see the video thread for Maureen's videos on how to use them.

[cyndiestamps]

Awwww, shucks... It was really a collaboration between Maureen and I, and mostly her ideas, but thanks!

Cyndie

[ailhelen]

Well thank you both Cyndie and Maureen. Much appreciated.

[wendella247]

Yes, thank you! One more reason I love SCS and the folks who hang out here!!

[pj_ireland]

Wow, just found this group tonight and am so happy I did! Thank you Iliana, Maureen & Cyndie! You ladies have taking my stamping skills & results up a few notches. Thank you so much for sharing all your fantastic techniques! I think all three of you are brilliant.

I think you need to show us what you have made.

Thank you so much to you both for being so kind as to share this with us. Yet another learning curve for me to take and look forward to using them - once I know how to use them

[craftsupplyhoarder]

Thank you so much!
Looking forward to try these with my MISTI!

[Copperkids]

I could do that but I would need guidance from someone as to what options to choose when saving as svg out of Adobe Illustrator. There are a ton of options and I don't have anything that uses svg files to test it with.

With the Cameo we can do a print and cut - I sure can use the files, but making them is where I am challenged lol

With Cyndie's permission I can share the SVGs I have made. Please let me know if it is ok.
Cyndie private message me if this is ok. I don't always read all the threads.

I have but I need Cyndie's permission to post them. I have not tested them. If Cyndie would private message me and give her ok I will share them.

[browpr]

I have attached the svg's to this message. I created them in Make The Cut Software which does it automatically. I don't have Adobe Illustrator (too pricey for me).

I have not test cut these so do so at your own risk.

[UnderstandBlue]

WOW that is so kind of you!!!

[MySweetPetunia]

That is so incredibly sweet of you to share.

[browpr]

You are welcome!

[Copperkids]

Thank you so much for creating the svg files!!

[CottageBliss]

Thanks so much for creating and sharing these files!! I am not an exacto/scissors person and now I can cut them on my Silhouette....YAY!

[SandraFee]

thank you both Cyndie and Maureen

[CherylQuilts]

Thank you, Cyndie and Maureen, and for Iliana for inventing the MISTI! It keeps on getting better and expanding in its use! Wow! I love mine! Hugs!

[saintsrule]

Ordered one today! Can't wait to play!

[timeout]

Just found this post! How did the files work?

[CottageBliss]

Once I update my machine they worked great! (I tend to wait till I'm forced...lol)

[Legojenta]

I have a quick question before I try to print these:
How big should each shape be? I need to print it on A4 paper, and I am worried the size will change to the wrong size =(

When you go to print, just be sure that it says "page scaling = none" or whatever similar setting your program uses so that it will print the images at their original size.

I tried it, but the hexagon I printed looks so small! Is it right that it should be 4 1/2" from one point to the opposite point, and that each side should be 2 1/4"? HELP! =)

[cyndiestamps]

Sorry, didn't see this question earlier and Legojenta contacted me by PM; I answered her there. Here are the dimensions if anyone else has the same questions:

1. HexagonV2: from one point to opposite point, 5.97 inches
2. Square: length of side: 5.97 inches
3. PentagonV2: from an outside point to the opposite side: 5.4 inches
4. OctagonV2: from an outside point to the opposite side: 6.3 inches.

Thank you Cyndie - I got it to work with these measurements =)

Hey Folks! To honor the Mini-MISTI I thought I would update my templates in smaller sizes that would fit in the Mini-MISTI. I've also designed another two templates: a Triangle one and also another Octagon that has a series of centered squares in it. This would make it easier to place your card stock if you are using a square piece instead of octagon. In addition, I've created SVG and Brother ScanNCut versions of the templates. On the Brother ScanNCut the templates will draw the inside parts of the templates with the optional pens then cut the perimeter with the blade. The SVGs should do that also on other cutters if they have that capability, I just can't test them. Note that you can resize the SVGs and the ScanNCut files in your cutter if you want to use them for the regular (or even for the expected 12x12!) MISTI models.

Have Fun!

I finally got around to watching the videos for the templates. THANK YOU Cindy and Maureen for great tools and instruction to use them!!!

I made a trip to BestBuy a couple of hours ago, purchased a VISA card, came home and ordered my MISTI. I have wanted one for quite a while and I finally broke down and decided to go for it. I'm really looking forward to receiving it.
