Import the SVG file into library and/or into project workspace. Trace image. I kept the high pass filter on.
Draw a rectangle measuring 3-1/2" x 5". I use Scale to get the right size.
Resize the cut file to fit inside the rectangle if necessary.
Select the words.
Release the Compound Path.
Group. Then Ungroup.
This will allow you to select individual words for cutting/sketching.
Go to the cut settings screen.
Select the outer rectangle and larger words, then choose No Cut.
It should now look like this.
Under Materials, there is a "+". Click on it and select Sketch Pen for blade type.
Insert your black sketch pen.
Adhere a 3-1/2" x 5" piece of Whisper White card stock to the upper corner of the cutting mat. Insert the mat. Select "send to Silhouette" in the program. Do not remove your mat when it finishes!
Select the large words for cutting. Be sure to mark the smaller words as no cut. Change sketch pen color if desired. Send to Silhouette.
Since you did not move your mat when it finished the last step, it will sketch in the correct space.
Trim the card stock if needed. I cut mine to 3" x 4-1/2", then layered it with Basic Black card stock that measured 3-1/4" x 4-3/4". This layers perfectly onto the Whisper White note cards.
Add ribbon and embellishments if desired.
