What’s Inside
- Dragon Egg · Plain Cut — a single, bold motif
One ready-to-cut design: Dragon Egg · Plain Cut. The pack includes the cut-ready file plus a line-art sheet for tracing and colouring. An ovoid body covered in overlapping scale arcs, with a jagged crack across the top. The scales are shallow crescents repeated in rows, so once you have cut one the rest follow the same motion.
Three Ways to Use It
1. Cut it with a Cricut or Silhouette
The file is closed-path vector art with no overlapping lines, exactly what cutting software expects. Scale to your cardstock and cut from 80 gsm upward; a fine-point blade handles it cleanly.
2. Cut it by hand
Print at 100%, staple the sheet to a folded square of paper, and cut through both layers. Most people finish in well under half an hour.
3. Trace and colour
The line-art sheet doubles as a colouring and tracing page, a ready-made activity for classroom or family craft time.
Materials
Red cardstock or origami paper (80–160 gsm) · scissors or a craft knife · a printer · double-sided tape. Add a Cricut or Silhouette if you would rather not cut by hand.
Best For
Fantasy displays, children’s bedrooms, themed parties and gift cards.
