Skip the diamonds. You can wow your honey with something creative, unique, and free!
A little personalized project just for your honey.
CutYourWay.com always gives free 1"x3" samples in select materials, so this project will be a 1"x3" mirror with a little personalized message in it.
The mirror acrylic is great because it's not as brittle as glass mirror, won't break when dropped, and if it does break due to extreme handling, it doesn't shatter into razor-sharp bits.
All you need is:
Imagination
Internet Connection
Vector Graphics Editor
I'll assume you've got the first two, and as for the third,
You can use Inkscape , which is free. Please note if the version doesn't install properly, you can try other versions until you get one that works.
CorelDraw, Adobe Illustrator, or any other vector-based graphics editor will work too of course.
Submit your files to cutyourway.com on the home page. If the file is 1"x3" or smaller, they know it's a sample and will process it for free. Bigger sizes are also very affordable and you can fit as many things as you like onto the flat-rate sizes which vary per material.

Signing UpStep 1Design The Project (in this case a mirror!)
A little pocket mirror that can be used as a keyfob is a pretty sweet little easy thing to create.
This one is going to be two pieces. 1 side will be the mirror side, the other side solid red. We'll glue the two together later.
Make sure you follow the CutYourWay guidelines to make all the CUT lines <.3pt blue, the vector ETCH lines <.3pt magenta, and the solid etch areas solid black. These have to be RGB or it won't work.
I decided to do the mirror in magenta line etch because it looks really good on mirror (which is always done from the back)
You can use any font you wish, type any message you wish. Just make sure all colors are perfectly coded.
Save your file as a PDF & make sure it's RGB coded.
Submit your files at www.CutYourWay.com, sit back, and wait for the mail (you will have to submit one file for mirror, one file for solid)
If the file is less than 1x3 inches they will process the order for free.
