Even I can see that when creating my monthly treats for the OHM children, I tend ('Try always!' amends DH) to go for cutesy stuff! So for my May contribution I settled on a non - cutesy Robot theme.
I found this little treat bag on the Robot Party cart, which is part of the subscription, and sized it at 4.96 inches wide.
When I went to cut the 24 bags, DS put 2 to a mat. What? It seemed there was plenty of room for a third bag on the mat. Then I remembered a tip from one of my Facebook Cricut groups and quickly added a 12 inch square template to my mat. I scooted two of the bags onto the template and then rotated a third and placed it carefully at the bottom. Holding down the shift key, I selected all three treat bags and used the 'attach' button. I did NOT attach them to the template and I deleted the square as soon I was certain that they would fit on the cutting mat.
Just for fun, I also cut the robot favors from the Robot Party cart and added two to each treat bag nestled in with the candy. I have to say that they are actually very cute! LOL : ) Thanks for visiting with me today. : ) Christine

These are so cute. I've owned the Robots cart for a few years. I'll have to look into this one. And thanks for the reminder about saving mats on Explore. I had forgotten about that. So much to remember!
