First - wow, what a cool trick with the glitter! The boxes look so elegant - perfect for National Honor Society members. I thought the snowflake was a sticker. I was surprised to find out it's an opening, tape, and glitter! Wow. I never use glitter - don't even have any - because it gets all over everything. I may have to rethink.
Second - I love my ATG gun when there's a new roll of tape in it; it glides on so easily. But when it gets near the end, boy is it hard to use! I keep pressing harder and harder. I'm glad to find out I'm not the only one with that problem.
Jan, make sure you have all the layers open. I made it so you can cut the box and snowflake, shut those layers off, turn on the score lines, then score. When you have the layers box open, there is a small gray triangle by the file name. click on that and the other layers should open.
Just watched your videos on glitter and also on doing the scoring on the cricut - I didn't know It could do that. Now I can't wait to play! Thank you for sharing. Pam xx
Denise -- Just want to drop in a share some of my work. I used your cut file for the pillow boxes. I add to score lines to make it easier to put them together. They worked out great. Here is a link to the post on the message board. Thanks for sharing! You do wonderful job!!!

The score lines cut all thru the paper, what did I do wrong?
