Information
      We were getting ready for our long trip across the US and wanted to create a quick and easy Travel Busy Board for my little one. I used an AI image using the "Birds Eye View of city with roads for kids toy cars" Prompt and then removed the background to only expose the road itself. I then used all the shapes and icons that Xtool offers to fill it in and to give it a clean look. This project is also meticulously designed to fit into all lap desks/trays for kids. You can also flip it and add another view to keep little one from getting bored.
    
Instruction
1
Step1: Upload File from XCS download

It will already be specifically sized to fit into most if not all kids lap trays/desks but feel to resize as needed. My son was crazy about visiting California so I added state and state flag for this project. Please delete if not needed or add your own extra details. 

 

Please note the steps below can happen in any order. Xtool projects settings will also default to what makes sense and is efficient to complete your project.

Step2: Scoring of road borders and icons

Scoring helps the main details stand out with this project. It is not a must but I wanted my details to not appear like they were washed out by just engraving.

Step3: Engraving of Images

This step engraves bitmap images used. Adjust settings as necessary to what you like or leave as is.

Step4: Engraving of Vector Images

Engraving of Vector images used. Adjust settings as needed or leave as-is.

Step5: Cutting of Final busy board project

You can do this step in any order since cutting it first or last will not affect any of the other processes.
