I'm loving the PRINT AND CUT feature on my CAMEO!! Woo-Hoo!
I chose several images to have the Cameo print.
First I put them on 8 1/2" x 11" cardstock on the Cameo screen with the Registration Marks.
Then I sent them to the printer to print.
I took that piece of cardstock out of the printer and adhered it to my Cameo mat.

The Cameo identifies the registration marks so that it will know where to cut the images.

After having the images print and cut out, I decided to make a shadow layer for them, cut those out, and below you can see the images adhered to their shadows.

Another very cool feature about the Cameo is that you can tell is how bulky or tight you want the shadow. And of course you can print the shadow in any color you feed through your Cameo. I considered blue, but since I didn't have my card papers chosen yet, I stuck with white for now.
