Here's a fun way to put your creativity to use! The PixScan 7.5" x 11.5" Mat by Silhouette America cuts precisely around a printed design. Place your chosen material on the mat, photograph it with any digital camera, import that image into your Silhouette Studio software, add cut lines, and then send the mat with the material through your Silhouette Portrait to cut out the image. The Portrait PixScan mat is designed to work only with the Silhouette Portrait and Version 3.1 (or higher) of the Silhouette software (sold separately). Included is one PixScan mat that measures approximately 9" x 15" with a 7.5" x 11.5" cutting area. Here are a few possible uses:
Turn hand-drawn sketches and lettering into cut jobs Replicate a pattern at its orginial size Add custom-cut borders and frames to professionally printed invitations Digitize fabric patterns Save any scanned or photographed image into your personal digital library Save material and time using the "nesting" feature in Silhouette Studio Turn photos and magazine clippings into cut or sketch files Digitize your stamp collection into corresponding cut files Incorporate any printed image or pattern into your custom craft projects
