Thank you so much I just purchased my Brother Scan and Cut you will never know how much you have helped me I am 71 and I still want to learn I live in Cumming GA
OMG Julie WOW....I'm in awe right now of what I just saw your Brother do.....Thanks so much for another one of your Outstanding Tutorials.....the results is Spectacular!! YOU so ROCK!! Joan Smith
Love this video. Just watched it 2 times. My question is. How do you do a Direct Cut Inside and Out with a SVG or Cut File? I saw that when you Scanned the image and did a Direct Cut Inside and Out and then Save it. I would like to see a video on Direct Cut Inside and Out on a SVG File in Canvas WorkSpace. Thank you.
Gah I commented about this very thing on one of your other videos, which one completely escapes me after watching so many, so, hopefully you see this before the other comment LOL! Thanks for all your amazing tutorials, I am definitely getting this machine now.
Hi Julie. Thanks so much for all your videos. Question: I'm having the reverse of this issue. When I direct cut, it cuts the outline AND Every.Single.Line within the design. I've tried increasing the ignore size and that helps to a point. How do I get it to simply cut the outside outline? I realize this video is really old and you may never see my plea for help, but if you can I would so appreciate.
I'm not sure what your question is. You can easily build a shape like that in ScanNCut Canvas using the process overlap tools. I have a video all about those.
This is a great tutorial!...I have a question...Do you have a tutorial for mirror image cutting outside and inside...I have tried cutting inside/outside i.e., the word "eight and great" in script...I can't get it to cut the inside of some of the letters.. Thank you so much!
Thanks for the tip. I would like to cut out an image that I have stamped, heat embossed and colored. Would the melted embossing powder on the edge of the design damage the blade if I cut without adding a margin? Thanks.
I am realy new to all this and watching your brilliant videos. Can I ask you please, when doing this design you use the low tack Cutting mat instead of the scan n cut mat. Does that mean you dont necessarily need the 'scan and cut' mat?
I am wanting to put a Soccer Ball on a blanket.........how would I go about cutting it out, where you can "see it is a soccer ball with all the little squares" ?? Thank you!
Hi im at my wits end with this machine,Igot my decoupage sheet ready in craft artist and printed it outline all around each image ,but when I go to cut its cutting out the flower in the main image even though the line is on the outside ,help please
i have a question: Is there an easier way to delete background marks from your scan without having to choose each red mark. I have the scan and cut dx 125i. Thank for this tutorial also:)
How do I select just a partial inside line? For example, I cut out several stamped images like baskets but I just want it to cut the space between the handle and the basket.
Thank you for your reply. Just to clarify, do you mean manually edit on ScannCut canvas using the trace feature? Just asking because I'm not having much luck with that. One more questions, how do I get the Enhanced Tracing Feature activation card? I've searched all over the internet and there is no information other than the videos here on TH-cam from Brother 6 months ago. It seems that this enhanced feature is what I would need to manually edit specific sections of an image.
Enhanced Tracing is not currently available in the US. Try using the delete functions in Direct Cut just before the final cut to edit out the cuts you don't want.
Lets say I want to make four across and four down, aka multiple of the same. How would you make multiple’s. I’m making paper engine gaskets and want to make multiple’s of the same. Also I can’t get small holes to cut out about 1/16” diameter. I can see them on preview but they don’t cut out everything else does.
HI, is it possible to cut a negative margin ? eg(-1mm) (-2mm) I would like to scan and cut a line completely out, leaving my image inside my template, but leaving no trace of a template line. I have the CM300, is there a download or plug-in function for this ? Thanks, Best regards, Phil
my Brother doesn't recognize the inside of the letters, even with the "scan to cut data" and I've already update the software :( I have a commission soon and I'm struggling a lot.. can somebody help me? I have the cm260
You'd have to manually edit to get that effect. Scan to Cut Data -- choose the second option -- save the design. Don't unload the mat. Then call up the file, edit the outsides out and cut.
hi PRINT ON 100PCS A4 PAPER THE NUMBER 9 COLOR DESIGN AROUND 5 PART OF NUMBER 9 EVRY A4 PAPER. WHAT I NEED TO DO IS TO CUT INSIDE OUTSIDE THIS NUMBER 9 BUT NEED TO DO IT TO ALL THE 100 PAPERS a4 so the steps u show it take for me many time. do u have other whay to do it ?
Nope. For an accurate cut, you have to scan every time. If you feel the paper and the number are on the mat in the exact same place every time, you can scan once and then just keep cutting the same file over and over.
Julie I love you videos for the Scan n Cut as I have learned so much from you. I love this video about the Scan N Cut: Direct Cut Inside & Out but I was wondering if you could could tell me used the scan to cut data like you did as I want to be able to emboss with my new embossing kit but I would like to be able to cut on both side of the line in some of my designs as I would like them to look like dies and not just emboss the design and cut it on the outside line. If this is not possible can you tell me any other way I could do this. I have seen someone do it on tv once but my record machine did not work and it was not on repeat I have tried finding it but so far I have had not any luck in doing so until I came across your video today about direct cut both the inside and the outside. I appreciate any help you could give me Julie as I have cancer and am only getting used to my machine it is the scan n cut 900 edition
Thank you so much I just purchased my Brother Scan and Cut you will never know how much you have helped me I am 71 and I still want to learn I live in Cumming GA
That's great to hear!
Thank you so much. I have spent the past 3 hours trying to find out how to cut inside and out.
Glad I could help! I hope you'll check out ScanNCut Club: www.juliebalzer.com/scanncut-club.html#/

Thank YOU!
I love all the videos you do for the scan-n-cut! Thank you so much for sharing!
Thanks so much! Perfect explanation, I was stuck on what to do after saving.
Glad it was useful, Lindsay!
This is the video I’ve been waiting for! THANK YOU!
Julie, is there a way to adjust to cut the inside without the white edge?
Thanks! Exactly the info I needed and way better than trying to read the manual!
You're welcome!

I have the same issue and it frustrates me.
Julie may I ask where I can find that design to make my own name?
I hand drew that design.
Thanks so much for this video.... So helpful...
This cuts EVERYTHING on the inside. What if I want to only cut the inside of the handle of a basket? Beautiful tutorial!
Gah I commented about this very thing on one of your other videos, which one completely escapes me after watching so many, so, hopefully you see this before the other comment LOL! Thanks for all your amazing tutorials, I am definitely getting this machine now.
Enjoy it!
You totally understood. Sometimes my brain doesn't get the question out the way it was thought...LOL. Thank you!
Yay! So excited to know I can make a cut to both sides of a line/design! Woooohoooo!
New subscribers here! Thank you very much for sharing this beautiful video!
Glad you found it useful!
When scanning this way, how do we add a .04 border around our cut? This is great info.
You can't.

Makes life soooo easy!
Do you have any tip for printing planner printables?
I like to print printables on shiny cardstock or photo paper. I think they look better.
lovely video ...thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
I would like to cut a simple shape like a circle and have it with a thicker border like with a circle die. Hope to make shaker cards.
I'm not sure what your question is. You can easily build a shape like that in ScanNCut Canvas using the process overlap tools. I have a video all about those.

Thanks Julie! Love this trick!!!

Is the available on the cm350 model? Bc I don’t seem to have that option
Yep.
Immensely helpful! Thank you so much.
This is the best ever. Thank you
Hi pretty lady. How are you doing today 😘
Thanks for the tip. I would like to cut out an image that I have stamped, heat embossed and colored. Would the melted embossing powder on the edge of the design damage the blade if I cut without adding a margin? Thanks.
I don't think so. Embossing powder is plastic. It might dull the blade.
I am realy new to all this and watching your brilliant videos. Can I ask you please, when doing this design you use the low tack Cutting mat instead of the scan n cut mat. Does that mean you dont necessarily need the 'scan and cut' mat?
Depends on what you're scanning. If you're only scanning things printed out on paper, you don't need a scanning mat.
how do i get it to cut with out white outline when i have a picture with a black outline why is it also cutting white instead of what i want ...
I don't understand your question. I have many videos on using Direct Cut. Hopefully one of them can help you.
@@BalzerDesigns its understandable i was having issue, with the outline of a picture cutting the white space as well
I am wanting to use a traced image of an outline of a state. I only want to end up with an outline of the state. Is this the function I would use?
No. Use Scan to Cut Data.
I am wanting to put a Soccer Ball on a blanket.........how would I go about cutting it out, where you can "see it is a soccer ball with all the little squares" ?? Thank you!
Find a soccer ball svg file and they will have figured it out for you. Do a google search.
Hi im at my wits end with this machine,Igot my decoupage sheet ready in craft artist and printed it outline all around each image ,but when I go to cut its cutting out the flower in the main image even though the line is on the outside ,help please
i have a question: Is there an easier way to delete background marks from your scan without having to choose each red mark. I have the scan and cut dx 125i. Thank for this tutorial also:)
You can use the selection tool to select multiple parts.
How do I select just a partial inside line? For example, I cut out several stamped images like baskets but I just want it to cut the space between the handle and the basket.
You'd have to manually edit to create that kind of cut.
Thank you for your reply. Just to clarify, do you mean manually edit on ScannCut canvas using the trace feature? Just asking because I'm not having much luck with that. One more questions, how do I get the Enhanced Tracing Feature activation card? I've searched all over the internet and there is no information other than the videos here on TH-cam from Brother 6 months ago. It seems that this enhanced feature is what I would need to manually edit specific sections of an image.
Enhanced Tracing is not currently available in the US. Try using the delete functions in Direct Cut just before the final cut to edit out the cuts you don't want.
I'll try that thank you so much for your reply. Can't wait until the enhanced function comes to US.
Is there a tutorial for showing how to edit a cut?
I have been trying to cut out multiple images that are printed on a A4 sheet but my machine isn't recognising the outlines, any ideas please?
Use color scanning.
I do use colour scanning but it doesn't recognise the outlines
Surely if I use black paper the scanner won't be able to see the image!
Lets say I want to make four across and four down, aka multiple of the same.
How would you make multiple’s. I’m making paper engine gaskets and want to make multiple’s of the same.
Also I can’t get small holes to cut out about 1/16” diameter. I can see them on preview but they don’t cut out everything else does.
Brilliant how clever thank you will have a go xx
Hi pretty lady. How are you doing
how would you then put a mat behind it a but bigger?
You'd have to save it. And then use the Create Offset Line tool in ScanNCut Canvas.
Can you do this on the dx 125?
Yes.
can you change the size, how do you do it
You can't change the size in Direct Cut, only in Scan to Cut Data.
Can you cut inside first , then cut out side? Do you have an email i can email an sample too?
No.
Why can't I just cut the outline, it keeps cutting pieces on the inside even though I chose outline cut?
If you have a solid outline and choose outline cut, it should work every single time.
Debbie Cimmino i hqve have the same problem
HI, is it possible to cut a negative margin ? eg(-1mm) (-2mm) I would like to scan and cut a line completely out, leaving my image inside my template, but leaving no trace of a template line. I have the CM300, is there a download or plug-in function for this ?
Thanks, Best regards, Phil
Yes. In Direct Cut, use the button you would use to add a margin, but go "negative."
my Brother doesn't recognize the inside of the letters, even with the "scan to cut data" and I've already update the software :( I have a commission soon and I'm struggling a lot.. can somebody help me? I have the cm260
Contact Brother Customer Support for assistance.
@@BalzerDesigns Thank you so much.
Thank you! I am brand new, so slow down the tapping a bit please!
Use the pause and rewind buttons when you need to. :)
How would I cut JUST the inside, as with a stamped wreath.....better yet, a page of them.
You'd have to manually edit to get that effect. Scan to Cut Data -- choose the second option -- save the design. Don't unload the mat. Then call up the file, edit the outsides out and cut.
Can you "bubble" cut when using this method?
