Having had a large Wacom tablet that I got about 10 years ago, I was so excited to get the opportunity to review the smaller, newer Bamboo Craft by Wacom. of course I knew that just because of the sheer number of years between purchasing my first tablet and receiving this new version that there would be differences due to technology advances, but I never thought that I would be so blown away about all the new options and ease of use.



Another technique I discovered as I played with the tablet and my Cricut is that I could make diecuts that would be the same shape as my stamp. in this card, I used this technique on the butterfly. First, I stamped the image on a small piece of typing paper. then I took the paper with the stamped image on it and carefully adhered a couple of edges to the tablet.

I set up my Photoshop file and, using my pen, traced around the stamped image. after this it is just a matter of filling in the shape and cleaning up the borders of the shape. then I took this file and followed the same steps that I used in the previous card to cut it out using my Cricut.
