Brother’s fantastic ScanNCut machine will make light work of your Christmas greetings and decorations. Spend a little time getting to grips with the setting changes before concentrating on the images you wish to cut. You can optimise the ScanNCut’s large library of shapes, motifs and lettering to set you off in the right direction. Once you’re feeling confident, why not make your own designs? Simply create a clean outline, scan it in and save to the machine’s memory. You can then erase parts, enlarge, reduce, flip and rotate as desired.
