Hiya, today I have fun project over on the Silhouette UK Blog which shows how to transform a piece of children's artwork into a jigsaw puzzle.  This tutorial shows how to use Print & Cut and the Silhouette Chipboard to make the project with a Silhouette Cameo.  The same method can also be used on favourite photos and other images.

The original cute image was drawn by my daughter quite a few years ago and was starting to look a little dog-eared.  I spent a few minutes cleaning up my image in Photoshop, erasing some crease marks and making the background a little lighter. It can also be adjusted in the Silhouette software, using eraser and trace tools, and is a cost effective alternative (as the basic edition of the Silhouette Studio software is free).

I used the following files from the Silhouette Design Store (you can click on a picture to go to the actual file page.
