What’s Inside
- Seahorse · Plain Cut — a single, bold motif
One ready-to-cut design: Seahorse · Plain Cut. The pack includes the cut-ready file plus a line-art sheet for tracing and colouring. An S-curved body ending in a tight curled tail, with a small coronet on the head and a tubular snout. The body is covered in tiny ridge notches that suggest the bony plates, so take them slowly but they are shallow.
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
Nurseries, beach-cottage windows, powder rooms and whimsical gift cards.
