Large 8 1/2 x 5 1/2

good morning to all, My grandson is turning 12 soon and is still into batman big time. for his invitation it had this symbol on it, but there was no way I was going to cut it out by hand and I don't have batman cartridge. So I did the next best thing and looked up batman on pinterest and found this one I could print, I did have to cut the oval out by hand but I was okay with that little bit.

for my b-i-l

Hello to all, I saw this card on pinterest in a style for a woman by Sheri Gilson and  I needed a card for a man. I wanted to see if I could weld the letters together with my design studio using the cartridge Plantin Schoolbook. I am very happy with the result. birthday was printed with my printer, then cut on my cricut.
