Like the circles I've now done some hearts...
Hope that they are ok, Alot harder to do than the circles.
but the time was worth it.
and thank you all for your comments on the scallop cirles.
Happy crafting.
I've called this "more fripperies" because it's girly and feminine and probably OTT but I like it anyway and I hope you do too!
I've made it for a friend's birthday next month. Done in Designmaster and converted via the PDF method. I have cut each section in 160 gsm card and lined with a contrasting colour so it makes quite a stable card. The 2 squarish boxes which you can see if you zoom out are the base card onto which I have layered the other pieces. You will need to set the green line on the base card to cut as a dashed line for the fold.
I haven't cut the GSD file (which I have put through Brian's converter) and I've had to zip it 'cos it's too big with all the bits in it - I hope it cuts OK

Reason: info re cutline settings
This topper sits nicely on a 6 inch square card. Done in DM and converted via the PDF method. I have put it through Brian's converter. You will need to zoom out a bit to get all the parts. I cut it in160 gsm concept card and lined each section with a contrasting colour. I have been shopping for more ribbons and beads!!
Although it looks fiddly it cut really well and I am pleased with the finished result, I think I shall give it to my sister for her birthday next month.
Here's my latest bit of frippery! Done in DM as usual and converted via the pdf method. I have included the outline in the GSD file to make it easier to cut the lining in a contrasting colour. This has made the GSD file large again so I have zipped it. I have put the GSD through Brian's converter.
I almost forgot to say this topper will sit nicely on the front of a 5 inch square card!
I do love my ribbons and beads so here's a bit more frippery! The mats were simply done in DM but they are quite effective. Converted to GSD via the pdf method and put through Brian's converter. I've had to zip this one again 'cos it's over the limit. I've used silver mirri to "line" the mats and of course it has reflected off the flash when taking the photo so apologies for that! I've made the "linings" just a little bit bigger than the mats this time.
The topper sits nicely on a 5 inch square card.
Just thought I would do something "weddingy" for a change, although it could be used for "good luck" as well. I just can't seem to keep away from the ribbons and beads so I hope you are not too fed up with them by now! Done in designmaster and converted via the pdf method. Sits on a 5 inch square card. Hope someone can use it.
I've just put this card in my gallery and one or two have said they would like the template, so here it is. The reason I hesitated before posting it was that it is a bit of a fiddle to do. It cut quite well, but a lot of patience is needed to lift it from the carrier sheet and to poke out all the little bits (it took me ages) but I was quite pleased with the result!
It sits nicely on a 6 inch square card.
Done in DM and converted via the PDF method. I have included the outline in the GSD file so that a "lining" can be easily cut
Made this for for son and DIL's anniversary next month - done in DM and converted via the PDF method. I have included the outline with the GSD file to make a "lining" for the mats. Sits nicely on a 6 inch square card
I decided I needed some mat and layer bits for my 3" square minicards. so here are some of my efforts. I've only got a screenshot to show you at the moment.
With the pinked circle try pricking two small holes in each V and sewing on some tiny beads - I found this quite a pretty effect but the card I made I used a wizard die for cutting the circle so I won't cheat and show it!!!!! But having done that I think it so much easier to have robo do the cutting especially as I nipped my thumbpad in the Wizard roller...ouch!
If you don't want the cut out elements just leave out the green cutting lines otherwise it's elementary
I've been playing some more and come up with these nested minimats. But they will resize easily using the position settings option (or by dragging a corner handle)

Reason: Adding more files
There's nothing wrong with teenagers that reasoning with them won't aggravate!
