I used SCAL and my Cricut to design & create this project.
Here is the picture that I found on-line.
Here is the cutout from cardstock:
So now, we are on to Father's Day: I decided on Friday night that I would work on this Saturday morning. Well Saturday morning turned into 10 hours of trying to get this right. First, I thought I had the file the correct size for a 8.5 x 11 piece of glass. It was not, it was too big. So I resized it, cut it, & placed it on the glass, but it still didn't look right. I needed to add a shadow to it to give the shape of the fish - w/o having to etch all of the glass. Now, mind you, my computer is ancient & takes forever on it's own, so working with this file is what took up so much of the time. So then after 3 more tries (placing issued mostly) I finally got it right!!
So here is the final product: And he absolutely LOVED it!!!!!! Now he wants me to make another one. At least now, I don't think it would take so long.
Thanks for looking. Questions & comments are always welcomed. Lori
