Rashaan Sidhu’s Drafting Page   

In this page, I will be blogging through my drafting assignments.

Cricut assignment

This is one of my first assignments I did in Drafting. 

In this assignment, our class got to print 2D stickers using the Cricut machine. We printed several different stickers like our names, an animal attached to an object we like, a turtle, and a logo we made for another assignment.

My Drafting Folder 

The picture below is a picture of my drafting folder with all the stickers we made for the Cricut assignment. 

On the front cover of my folder, you will see four different stickers. The top sticker is the logo I made for the safety logo assignment, the sticker below it is my name, the sticker below my name is the shape I made, and the sticker below the shape is a turtle. 

 

Video about the Cricut machine

This is a video on how to use the Cricut machine to cut stickers

 

I really enjoyed this project, because I enjoyed making creating stickers on the Cricut app, and then printing them out using the Cricut machine. Here are some examples of what stickers our class created below.

Names

For this sticker, each person in my class got to create their own name using the Cricut machine. 

Here are some examples I found online.

 

In both these images, you can see the Cricut machine in the back, with their names in front of it. For this sticker, it was pretty simple to create. All we had to do was design the name on the Cricut app, then print it out using the Cricut machine.

Shape and image

For this sticker, my class got to combine an animal and a shape.

We created this sticker by doing a few steps to attach an animal and a shape together. Then the next step was to print it. Here are some examples I found online. 

 

In the top image, you can see that the animals are above the shapes, and you can only see their faces. In the bottom image you can see that the animals are in the middle of the circles.

Here’s a video on how to combine shapes in the Cricut app.

 

Turtle

For this sticker my class got to create a sticker in the shape of a turtle

To create this sticker, a ton of steps were involved, so it was less simple than the last two stickers I’ve explained above. For this sticker, we had to search up an image of a turtle on Google, and once we’ve found the image, we had to download it to another app called Microsoft paint. In Microsoft paint we had to edit the image of the turtle, like removing the background. Then we had to go to the Cricut app and move the image there, then we could print it. Here are some examples below.

 

For both of the images, the colors of the turtles did not appear, just like how my class made the turtle.

Safety Logo

For this sticker my class already had the image, because we created the image in another assignment

The image we had already made was a safety logo for Science. I made the logo on Canva, so then all I had to do was move it from Canva to the Cricut app. Then I got to print it. Here are some examples below.

 

For both these images, they aren’t like what my class created, because we created safety logo’s for lab testing in science. My logo looked like a person getting sprayed in the eye with a chemical, so then that person had to go to the eye wash station.
