Layered Flower Card

Here is a card I made using the cutting file layered flower.


The cardstock I've used is Bazzill Bling Diamond and Bazzill White.  I've also used a couple of Spellbinder dies and a couple of the new Spellbinder M-Bossibities embossing folders.  I've used a Prima Sultan Centre in the centre of the flower and Swarovski Crystals along the bottom of the lacy border.



I'm linking this up to the following challenges:


Thanks for stopping by today.

Free St Patrick's Day Cutting File

Today I have another St Patrick's day file to share with you.  
The file is for the Shamrock Round.  As you can see from the samples below I've made a really quick card as well as a coaster and wine charm.



The file will be available here as a freebie for a short time before going into my shop.
Freebie Link has now expired.

On the card I've also used my Spellbinder Scalloped Circle Die and a Cuttlebug embossing folder.
All the papers are Bazzill.

To make the wine charm I cut a shamrock from shrink plastic and then coloured with Copics.
