Hi All!
Sorry it's taken me so long to get another video posted. I was in the middle of putting this one together when I had some health issues land me in the hospital. It's been a slower recovery than I like but I'm finally back and was able to get this one finished...so without further delay...
This is another video using Procreate to create what I'm calling "drawing assist stencil". I'm the first to admit my freehand drawing skills are limited, so I thought it might be fun to use Procreate and some inspiration photos to create stencils and masks that could help me with my art endeavors. We'll be using the tools we've already learned and then a few new ones to create our designs using multiple layers on one canvas. Then, I'll show you how to move each layer onto it's own canvas so that we can export each design as an individual shape. Then, I'll show you again how to smooth the lines to get rid of pixel edges and save our design as an SVG file using Adobe Capture. And last, we'll send each design/shape over to Cricut Design Space for final arrangement and cutting.
In case you've missed any previous videos for this series, here's a link to the entire playlist so you can watch from the beginning (which I highly recommend):

I'm using a Cricut Maker and Samsill Plastic Craft Sheets for making stencils. Here are links:
Samsill Craft Plastic: amzn.to/3jQG2ux
Cricut Maker: amzn.to/42Ev4tz
If you're also using the Samsill Craft Plastic and a Cricut Maker, I wanted to share the material settings I came up with after lots of trial and error. I have the cut pressure set at 328, number of passes set at 3X with a fine point blade. I found that with these settings and then click on "more" pressure when you choose your material makes a perfectly cut stencil. In this video I'll show you once again how to add your own custom material.
