In reply to Chrissy Farnan {Hoot Designs}. Chrissy, what I did is create my entire card, including the shape and the sketch design, all in the same file. I then deleted the card outline and used the sketch pens to sketch the design. With the design sketched, I left the cardstock on the mat, replaced the pen with my blade, and hit "undo" to replace the card outline on the file. When the card outline is back in place, you then can delete the sketch design, and then hit cut. That way, everything will be nice and centered! I hope this makes sense. :)

Question: Do I just place the card onto the cutting mat (hope it sticks) and center the measurements with the screen ruler and the cutting mat ruler and hope for a centered image?? Or are you cutting the card out after your image is cut to make sure it’s centered? Such a great idea! I have the sketch pens but have not tried them yet.
