Just got this cartridge today and it doesn't do what I need. I bought it because of the horses. But I need to shadow the horses and it doesn't do shadows on the horses. Or do I just don't know how? Does anyone know? Also need the horses to go in opposite directions and can't figure out how to do that.
My sister gave me magnetic signs for the side of my car for my birthday and she was so excited to give them to me. The name of my company is Whitehorse and when the signs got here, they have black horses on them. I have not used them because of the black horses. I bought this cartidge thinking I could cut white horses to go on them. But the background is also white so I need to shadow the horses or they won't show up.
If anyone has an ideas that might help......please let me know. Thanks.

i dont have this cart but not all the carts can shadow for every image. to use the shadow feature you would press the shadow button and then press the image that you would like to use. my guess is that if that doesnt work - then the shadow feature may only be for letters (or whatever images are on the keypad overlay) and not an extra image. For another option - you can always put the horse cut on to the black and use scissors to hand cut it. good luck!

and yes i would think that you could use the Gypsy or design studio to make a shadow - you would just have to hide (contour) all of the inside cuts to make it.

to make the horse go the other way you should be able to select the flip option on the cricut expression (I'm not sure what cricut you use) for the shadow if the option is not available try cutting a slightly bigger horse like for ex a 2" then a 1 1/2 as the main horse...
