I can’t imagine “winging it” on the cutouts. I was hoping for something like an overlay.

WHAT A GOOD IDEA FOR GIFTS FOR KIDS AT CRISTMAS!

You’re right on the “winging it”. However, i think that you could start by practicing on a piece with no picture. Then discipline yourself not to follow outlines in a picture.

If you do not feel comfortable “winging it” look online for overlays.

If you are uneasy about cutting freestile, you can use a clear wrap and cover the picture, then w/ a magic marker trace cut patterns on the wrap to provide a cutting guide. You can then scroll saw your pattern of cut lines you made on the clear wrap. Don’t worry if you do not match the cutting guide exactly. I also take into consideration the age of the person the puzzle is for, and the younger the recipient the larger I make the puzzle pieces. Family pictures make an excellent subject for Christmas puzzles. Make sure there is enough detail in the picture so that the puzzle can be re-assembled.
