Open a >NEW file and then>OPEN and find your machine design where you have saved it. In my case, the CD was in my D drive and I selected the 5 x 7 cupcake design. Be sure to select >CONVERT TO CURVES or you will not be able to convert it to ARTWORK.
Hold down the Control key and select the Indian Ocean color - these are the three placement lines for the liner, frosting and heart. Then>COPY and >PASTE in a >NEW file.
Select All or Crtl + A and then select >ARTWORK.
I prefer to separate the designs and re-color them to match my preferred color. Then Select>SAVE2CUT. Don't forget to save it as a WAF file as well. If you are going to use Heat Transfer Vinyl be sure to MIRROR the image before you SAVE2CUT!
Then open up the SAVE2CUT files in your machine's software and cut out the designs. I like to save both in one file and then just drag one off the mat when cutting out the shapes.
I hope I have inspired you to give it a try! I need to go shopping before I can cut this out. First store - Adeline's Closet!
