So, what is a “Spiral Betty”? Well, it’s a spiral design, that’s for sure however it appears to have been inspired by a French painter and engraver, Claude Mellan, that used to do engravings with a single line in a spiral pattern so, not really a ‘Betty’. It works by varying the line width as the spiral grows and this creates an optical illusion to the viewer. Sometimes to get the effect you have to stand back or squint your eyes. Here’s an example of a very fine spiral with my mush…Īnyhoo, how does this relate to the Scan N Cut? Well, because this is one continuous shape, we can create a cutting file from it by tracing it in Canvas Workspace. With this file we can then either draw it and frame it or we can cut it from a thin material like vinyl or HTV and use it to adorn stuff. Now, there are a few steps to get from creating the design, through creating the cutting file and on to setting up the machine for cutting vinyl – blade settings and depth etc – so I thought that I would throw together a video to cover those points. I have not covered actually cutting this out, as that is pretty standard across the board and nor have I shown the application as this will vary depending on the material used and the project it is being applied to but there are plenty of tuts out there no matter what you want to do. Obvs if you have any questions, bung them below and I’ll do my best to sound intelligent. It’s crammed with over 14 hours of on-demand video right from setting your Scan N Cut up, all the way through the three key functions of cutting, drawing and scanning on both the CM and DX models and also covers using both versions of Canvas Workspace software too! Just before I share the vid, if you are not confident with the basic operational aspects of your Scan N Cut machine, please do check out my full “ Brother Scan N Cut – Cut, Draw and Scan with Confidence” course on Udemy. Update: The New Swap Background And Foreground Feature.Oh, and whilst I am shamelessly plugging things, did you know that I have literally THOUSANDS of SVG cutting files available? Some are free too! If you are interested in checking them out, please visit the SVG Cuttin g File Shop Archive. I mean that’s exactly what it looks looks like right? It’s an online tool that turns images into spiral works of art, think of it a bit like a record? When I first saw it, I assumed it was a printable image and I know many have thought the same. When in fact Spiral Betty is exactly like a record, and a genus idea. The image is created by splitting the image into two spiral layers and if you zoom in these spiral lines differ in depth to create light and shade and this creates an image. Once your cut file is weeded, the way the image presents itself depends on the background. I have seen lots of talk and people berating themselves for creating or weeding their Betty wrong. However a simple change of background will resolve that. I have cut the below image on blue iron on vinyl and transferred it to card. The lighter background shows the image as blue shaded photo, it totally blow my mind that a series of lines can create an image so detailed. However on a darker background the image appears more like a negative. This doesn’t mean you have weeded you cut wrong, it means the back layer need to be lighter. Have a play around with this as the results really differ depending on the colour. Update: The New Swap Background And Foreground Feature. This new feature allows you to cut your Spiral Betty depending on a chosen background. Thus you can flip your image to suit a light or dark background, this is such a wonderful addition and it give you so many more options. Simply click the squares underneath the download image and you can flip your image in seconds to suit a darker background. What Images Can I Use?Īlthough it was designed for people, have a play around.
