Take Out Tuesday Mouth Watering Watermelon SVG Download March 29

Hi Dandi Crafters. Happy Take Out Tuesday to you. Around here the spring time weather has left and we are once again cold. I am really ready for hot weather so I made this mouth watering watermelon for today's Take Out Tuesday.
You will find in the folder along with copyright and terms of use the mtc format and svg files. I didn't have time to make a scal version this time.

The zip file includes:

•Watermelon Base Layer(shown in black)
•Watermelon Piece 1 Layer (shown in red)
•Watermelon Piece 2 Layer (shown in pink)
•2 Watermelon Rhine Layers (shown in green and light green)
•Watermelon Flower Layer (shown in hot pink)
•Watermelon Flower Center Layer (shown in white)

I debated whether or not to cut the watermelon parts that you don't see off in order to make the watermelon lay flush against the background layer. I decided in the end since the cut didn't seem bulky when assembled that I would leave the parts of the watermelon you can't see in tack. This means that there is a half a watermelon and a quarter watermelon piece under the flower which will give you more design options.

I provide Tuesday Take Out as a thank you to my followers and regulars. It is available on Tuesdays and Wednesdays for download on Thursday we throw out the leftovers. If you are not already a follower you should consider becoming one so you don't miss any more Take Out Tuesdays.

Take Out Tuesday Garden Snail SVG Download March 22

Hi Dandi Crafters! I am in a Spring mood and today's Take Out Tuesday reflects it. It is a cute garden snail. I actually drew a similar garden snail about a year and a half ago. I was updating the garden snail  so I could use the snail to participate in a challenge but didn't want to release that snail in case someone was entering the same challenge however I decided to make an alternative snail by making additional changes to it so I could offer the snail for Take Out Tuesday because he is so darn cute.
The snail as seen here is about 3.5 inches tall. He is easy peasy to put together as he is only 3 layers. You will find in the folder the measurements, copyright and terms of use along with svg, mtc and scut formats.

The zip file includes:

•Snail Body(shown in Green)
•Snail Under Shell (shown in Teal)
•Snail Shell (shown in polka)

The eye is just a round punch that I glued from behind and I did not include an eye.

Thank you for joining today's Take Out Tuesday. Take Out Tuesday is provided for download on Tuesday and Wednesday as a thank you for my followers and regulars. On Thursday we throw out the leftovers. If you are not already a follower you should consider becoming one so you don't miss any more Take Out Tuesdays.

Yes To Take Out Tuesday

Hi Dandi Crafters! I was going to post this at the top of Take Out Tuesday but it seemed too long so I decided to make it a post. I just wanted to take a minute and say, "Yes I will continue Take Out Tuesday". Some of you have noticed my silence on the PC lawsuit against MTC, and I have gotten a few emails asking me since MTC and SCAL will no longer work with the Cricut did I plan to continue making svg files. First let me say that previously purchased versions of mtc will still work as long as you do not update your Make The Cut Software or update the firmware on your cricut.
For the time being I will continue to use my cricut and mtc software without updating either. This is not a big deal to me. I used and still use the original SCAL so although the new features and updates are nice I personally don't need them to achieve results as I usually design most of my svg outside of these programs anyway. I do plan to buy a different cutter but which one and when I haven't decided on. Yes I think PC has acted in a manner unbecoming to a reputable business, but not for the reasons many others have mentioned, but for letting all the misinformation, letting their board members sling mud and make disparaging remarks on their discussion board about the third party software and their owners. Either one can talk about 3rd party software on the PC message board or one can't. It shouldn't be permitted for one to discuss third party software as long as one is slinging mud and making outlandish and disparaging remarks about it. If you see me on either of the boards I will still be friendly,nice, and there to see what everyone creates, keeping my opinion about controversial subjects to myself.
Lastly I would like to add that even though for the near future I will not be updating my MTC software I plan to donate when new MTC updates become available because I want MTC to be around when I am ready to update. MTC is a wonderful software program and has its finger on the pulse of where cutting machines are heading. I think the future is in buying and using individual cuts not in a collection. I think sooner or later everyone will get tired of limiting their cutting content to what is on a cartridge, especially as svg online libraries continue to grow. I see more and more companies and individuals offering both free and pay original svgs to cut. Spending $50.00 on a cartridge when you only want 4 of the images really will get harder and harder to justify. I feel even PC will eventually have to see the truth in that statement. I predict that the crafting industry standards will eventually force PC to offer individual content to their consumers or become a relic. It won't happen today, or tomorrow, maybe not even a year from now, but the days when arbitrary content is put on a cartridge and sold without regard to what the buyer wants is coming to an end.
So to say it simply Take Out Tuesday is alive and well. I will see you tomorrow.
