Ok now I've tried everything except an image! Welded word, numbers and letters in frames.
I cut in gold card and they came out well - an idea for those of you who sell your die cuts - these are quick to make and very effective especially with a font like Black Rose.

Reason: checked cutline settings
Made this in DM and it was a file that did not want to behave. If you use the GRA template keep the flowers a different colour to the rest of the mat or they will disappear, don't ask me why because I have no idea
I did not attempt to put the middles of the small letters in far to fiddly. I have included a backing mat to be cut in a contrast colour. I have cut both the GRA and the GSD and they were both fine
Here is another 3 layered card topper – very quick to assemble and great for last minute cards. Designed as an ‘iced cake’, but could be used as a scalloped frame if the ‘iced’ Happy Birthday text cutlines are removed.
Picture of completed card and cut template pieces attached. Hope it is useful.
First of all I would like to thank everyone for their very kind messages of sympathy - I appreciate it so much and knowing so many of you have gone through the same sadness and must know exactly how we feel is somehow comforting.
I have now managed to do a conversion to GSD - it's not perfect but not too bad (I do wish someone would come up with an easier way to do this) I have cut the 2 lacy mats from the GSD file and I think the rest of it should be OK
I hope you do re-discover Inkscape Sue, you will have so much fun.
I have been playing with Lucille's Inkscape Clone Tool Tutorial () and tried it using the images I made for the flippix card. I thought the result would look good as a card topper. The font is Challenge (of course).
Because the GSD file was so large, I have only uploaded the zipped jpeg images ready to be autotraced in RM.

Been trying to do a card for my Brother's birthday and wanted these words inside. The eyes are supposed to looked shocked, but unfortunately they just look normal, but I think it looks ok.
Hope it can be of use to someone.
I think the second set/file 'maybe' look a little more shocked.
