I downloaded the free set yesterday and managed to use MTC to cut out the grill and the burger. This is what the layers look like before I put them together:
A little gluing later resulted in this:
According to Lettering Delights' Terms of Sale, I am not allowed to offer a free download of the MTC cut file but I can tell you that to make the images cutable, I used Adobe Photoshop to make it black and white (Grayscale) and then adjust the Brightness/Contrast to hightlight the layers. I then traced the image in MTC to get the cut file. The MTC file for the burger looks like this:
Since the download is currently free, do give it a try. It may take a little time to get the hang of it but in my opinion, this is one of the easiest sets to convert. Do not spend money buying these graphic sets until you are sure that you can use them because some images are easier to convert than others.

Cool - thanks for the tip. I have purchased some graphic sets but only printed them out. now I may have to try to convert. TFS!

ReplyDeleteHi Lynn,
ReplyDeleteYou can find the set by doing a search on "Backyard Fun" in the Search box in the Lettering Delights website or click on the Promotions buttons, then Freebies, and under Bonus Freebies, click on the line that reads "View Current Bonus Freebie Samples", then scroll down and click on the Jug of lemonade.
Hope that helps.
