I recently purchased an 18 inch Black Cat Cougar and I have to tell you I am
BLOWN away with it. I have been playing with it a little here and there since it arrived a few weeks ago. It definitely has a bit of a learning curve to it but
oh my goodness what a sweet, sweet machine! Check out
Thyme Graphics for details about this incredible machine.
I found this shirt at my local Wal-Mart and had to have it! I struggled finding a name for her but then decided it would be based on this shirt
-- so her name is now
Here are a couple of projects I have done so far with her -- I have not had a lot of time to play but once I get moved that will hopefully change.

My first accurate Print and Cut -- the numbers are my settings, please ignore those LOL |

I made this glass block for my granddaughter - it was amazing how easy the vinyl cut - it was truly a dream cut! The coloring of the glass blocks was done with two different alcohol inks, very cool idea - a nice change from glass etching. |

Birthday card for my granddaughter - the cherry blossom branch and flowers are from SVGCuts |

This was my first true cut on my Cougar. I have loved these bookmarks for a while but could never get them to cut correctly on my previous machine (the E). These files are found free on the MTC Gallery |
Oh your projects are AWESOME girl!!! And LOVE the name on her!!!!!! BTW......if you have sharpies....you could color your metal with those...they're alcohol based!!!! ;)
ReplyDeleteI do have sharpies!!! LOTS LOL! Thank you, that will be my coloring trick after I get some metal and try out the embossing! Thanks Penny! You are always such an inspiration!

I recently acquired a Black Cat Cougar. The problem is that I have absolutely no idea how to use it. I have no user manual or software. I know nothing. Can you please help me?
