This summer I bought a cutting plotter. For cutting cardboard, paper, vinyl, stickytape, ... and today I tried masking tape. Very simple, because that are rectangles 4.1 x 4.9 mm. I used 2 masking tapes one over the other and took the option "kiss-cut", that is cutting the half way through. It worked perfect! 

I only had to insert the masking tape shapes 😄
