Use the Shape Tool to create new shapes or edit the nodes/points on existing shapes.
First, we'll create a basic outline using the Draw Tool. Move your mouse and click on each point.
Join the shape together by hovering your mouse over the first point and clicking.
Now click the Shape Tool. Click on the line to reveal the points.
Click on the point to select it.
Once selected you can change the type of node to a curved point with handles.
You can then move the point.
Click and drag the handles (points that appear at the end of two lines) to increase or decrease the curve.
Move the handle further away to increase the curve.
Fine-tuning the shape.
Change the color of the fill and stroke (outline).
I want them both the same color in this case.
To print and cut the same shape, select all (Ctrl+A), Copy it, (Ctrl+C), and paste it (Ctrl+V).
Change the new shape to no fill with any other contrasting color as an outline (stroke).
Now go to style settings to change each shape to print only or cut only.
Select all again (Ctrl+A) and click on the alignment tab.
Center both horizontally and vertically to align them to each other.
Now we want to create small bleed so the image is easier to cut.
Select the cut line. We'll have to use the layers tab to determine which is one this is.
Click the layer to select it.
Now click the Path Menu - Offset Path.
We want to inset the path so check Inset Offset 0.020"
Once you inset the offset, it smooths out the cut line and adds more points.
In this case, we want to remove one of the added points.
And adjust the position of others.
Let's preview this before we print.
