If you’re tired of tracing and cutting letters, love the look of kaleidoscope and mosaic pages, or want to create a variety of shapes without cutting and tracing, Ez2Cut templates are perfect to fit your needs.

With a variety of fonts and shadow letter templates, creating titles is a breeze. With just a quick motion of your knife, you have entire titles cut out within minutes. If you usually cut your letters out individually by tracing a template, and then cutting out each letter, you know how time-consuming that can be. The beauty of these templates is completely cutting out the “tracing” step, AND being able to cut using a swivel knife, much more quickly than using your scissors.

The kaleidoscope templates are a great way to spice up your pages. One way that I like using them is to highlight a specific photo by making the kaleidoscope photos in black and white, but the center photograph in color. layout by Andrea SteedIt helps to spotlight the photo in a unique way. Kaleidoscopes are also a great way to show motion or speed. In this layout, I’ve used a photo of Carson looking mischievous in a kaleidoscope to illustrate the whirlwind of a little boy.

If you like mosaic pages, try using the mosaic templates, available in both 8 ˝ x 11 and 12 x 12. The templates allow you to quickly cut your photos or papers into one inch squares or strips, while keeping them in place on your cutting mat (hermafix repositionable adhesive). There are a wide variety of mosaic designs that you can create using this easy 2 step mosaic template.

Ez2Cut also carries a line of Celebration templates in shapes such as shamrocks, Easter eggs, Christmas trees, a graduation hat, a pumpkin, and a top hat. However, if you look at these templates more closely, you’ll see that you aren’t just getting the Christmas tree or shamrock template. You’re getting templates for a wide variety of shapes that make cropping your photos and paper a breeze.

And finally, Ez2Cut has what are called Fancy Frame templates. These are unique, ornate frames for photos created using the Ez2Cut system. These frames work wonderfully on Heritage layouts. Try cutting your focus photo in the center oval square or circle shape (depending on the template), and then using cardstock to cut out the frame portion of the template. You’ll have a wonderfully detailed frame for your photo in no time at all.

The Ez2Cut templates really are easy to cut. They cut down your cropping time considerably and leave you with complicated and detailed-looking pages.

Take a look at the Ez2Cut article in the Tools and Techniques section of our site for instructions on how to best use the templates, and how to create your kaleidoscope layouts.
