ADORABLE! How skilled do you have to be to make these though!??
Katie
I think it depends. IF it is your first time I would suggest starting with a more simple and square one. The more you've done the more you will be able to do the more difficult paper toys.

These are brilliant. Ive seen letters before but not numbers. When I find the time, I'm going to make a set for my friend who has just had a baby. Her nursery wallpaper on one wall is numbers.

Just got thisin my Pinterest feed. What I want to know, is how to easily convert these to svg files so I can cut them out using my Cricut Explore. They're really cute, but I know I don't have the dexterity or patience to cut these out by hand. Any tips? is anyone starting to offer printables as svg or cricut files for paper at like this?
Katie
I am sorry, but I am not quite sure how to convert them to SVG and keep them so they are printable. There might be a tutorial video on YouTube that you could watch. I am sorry I couldn't help.
