I'm using the wife's Cricut, which has its own software, Cricut Design Space.
She bought it a couple years ago when it was the hot new toy for the designing moms, and she made a few etched wine glasses with it, but that's about it. Now it just sits, gathering dust. I'm just messing around with it, trying to recreate some of the decals from the car's original livery. I can't make the numbers, or anything larger than about 11.5 x 23 without splitting it into multiple pieces, so I can't cut the numbers, the Automotion or the Carlsen Porsche, but I'm trying my hand at some of the smaller stuff.

Since I don't have a good original for this one, I'm on my own. My best guess at the font was a variant of Grotesk. I just figured out how to separate the letters last night so that I can move them closer together or farther apart, but I haven't figured out how to move or stretch elements of the individual letters. It's cold and rainy today, so it's this or try to get a guitar rewired. The guitar is frustrating me, so I'm going to work on this before I pull a Pete Townshend.
