This frame looks nice cut in green card and a photo in the middle.
Be careful when taking it off the carrier sheet.

When I started this one, I had the Hambly overlays in mind. I wanted something sort of similar, although obviously not transparent :) I have cut it, and rather like it :)
I think if I did it right I've included the optional center circle in the GSD so you can delete it if you want a solid frame. The GSD is sized for a 12x12 sheet of card, but you can size it down for A4, obviously. A tiny bit of tidying up is needed, esp. the right hand lowest arms of the flourish which don't always "fall" out (maybe a sharper blade or more force?)
From Bodoni ornaments, lower case s, with lots of rotating and some editing :)
I've included the waste frame - I have this idea that you could overlay it over a transparency sheet and paint thru it to get something that is a bit more like the Hably overlays but I haven't tried that yet! Hey, it is still quite early on a Bank Holiday so cut me some slack!!
MaryAnne gave me permission to post the file that I made from her JPEG. It should work for Wishblade users since I traced it using my Wishblade. thecountryrose

I have been fiddling with Inkscape, trying to see if I can learn how to use it by just playing. I wanted to make a scalloped shape, but came up with this shape instead.
I decided to see if it would cut and whether it would be at all useful.
It cuts really well, so I will share it with you and see what you think.
I know it is basic and simple, but I quite pleased, even though it was nothing like what I was trying to do - lol!

2 heart frames if anyone can make use of them. Designed in KNK Studio, converted to GSD via Inkscape. If anyone would like the KNK file please pm me.

Here you go Ruthan. Hope you like them and hope you don't mind that I copied the pattern of your lace in the second one.

I can't figure out how on earth I am going to have time to use them all. Hope you do!

These frames are a little bit different from what I have done before but I hope you like them anyway.

I tried to make a frame that looks like a crochet doily but I don't know if I can call them frames. There is not so much space to put a picture on :D. I hope they are useful anyway.

This time I have put some swirls together. Be careful when lifting it of the carrier sheet. Hope you like it.

Hearts in a frame this time
I haven't cut this yet but it should be ok

It was a while since last time I uploaded some files, but here is a couple of new frames anyway. Hope you like them.

These frames you can cut quite small if you want. I have made several different shapes with these and will post more of them later.

Hope this is of any use. Maybe as a topper on a card or so. I made it just for fun.:)
:thanks:

I've just been playing around with something I read a while ago and thought it was quite pretty and would be nice on a LO as a frame for a photo or as a journaling block.

This mat is a result of some of the "fiddling" I did when I was designing the broderie anglais card so I thought I might as well put it in the templates in case anyone can make use of it. Converted via the pdf method.

It cuts fine at 5"x5". I think there might be a problem if it was cut any smaller so it would probably be better used for a cut out or topper for an A4 card
Here's another one wit a mat. I haven't cut this one but it should be ok

Some lovely files here on the first day! Here is my first entry - it is intended as a scrapbook frame although it could easily be made smaller for a card.

Not sure if this counts, I think it does, but not very good at doing frames so used a font which is Ipsnowflake - capital letter B.
It has a base mat which cuts great and a top decorative layer which cuts great but is very delicate.
Also added the same frame but with a circle around it so it can be cut out of a card blank if you delete the outer circle instead of using as a topper.
A simple frame but may be useful to someone
Another one from me if anyone can use it

Line art faux satin stitch frame, designed in Inkscape. The template's orange lines need to be drawn with gel pens first before sending to cut.

There are some gorgeous frames on here now - Sharon I love your ballerinas and Joyce your faux satin stitch is so realistic - at first glance I honestly thought you'd been up all night embroidering it!!
I've done a couple of star frames (thinking about Christmas - how sad is that?). Care is needed lifting these off the carrier sheet 'cos they're a bit delicate

Similar design to the square frame but round this time

WOW, I've just done my first filigree, and thought I'd share it with you all. I didn't realise how much work went into making a filigree file, and I probably won't do another for quite a while hahaha Hope you like it. Haven't cut it yet, so I'm hoping it's fine.

OK, I know I said I wouldn't do another filigree for quite a while, but I seem to be addicted. Here's the 3rd one I've done, but the 2nd one I'm sharing with you all. Again, as usual, I haven't cut it, but it should be fine. Hope you like it xx

I saw some mats like the flower one on create and craft, won't mention the person showing them as I don't think it is allowed, anyway I saw them and they were quite pricy for what you get so I decided to play around and do my own.The snowflake mat is my own idea as I needed a nice mat to showcase one of Silenes fabulous snowflakes.
Apologies for the image, obviously gold & silver mirri card and a scanner don't mix :lol:
As you see, the different sections of the mat can have different colour paper/card behind them so great for using those little bits I tend to hoard as they are too pretty to throw away :D
BTW, use quite thin card otherwise the small pieces won't come out without tearing the mat and don't cut them too small, I made mine to fit 135 x 135 mm square cards.

I thought the polygon design would make a nice mat so here is what I've come up. I cut it in120 gsm paper and it cut really well, but care is needed when lifting from the carrier sheet as it's a bit lacy!
