If you are like me and in love with the chipboard swirlies and flourishes (or any shape), here is a tip to get more bang for your buck!! If they came in the sheets where you pop them out...after you remove them, tape a piece of black paper behind the whole sheet and then scan it. Then you can open it in Inkscape and autotrace to make cut files of all the shapes!! I have done this with the "Big Board" and "Biggest Board" flourishes by Fancy Pants and gotten great files with just a little tweaking. Although you lose the dimension of chipboard, you gain the flexibility of making just the size you want. And embossing with UTEE can give you some of the dimension back.
Happy cutting....
