Good morning SCT readers! I am happy to be back to share another free cut file I created just for our special Scrapbook & Cards today readers! Here is what today’s cut file looks like:
Background cuts take a project to a new level. If you aren’t sure what you are going to do with the cut file right away – cut it out of white cardstock – you can easily mist or paint it whatever colour matches your page! Plus, white is a great neutral that works with virtually any paper line.
I wanted to show you a few examples of what you can do with this cut file, so I went ahead and cut one 2x12 full sheet of this circle background cut out of white cardstock and got to work.
First up, I created this layout, using approximately half of the 12x12 cut file:
Supplies: Patterned Paper, Chipboard, Tags, Stickers, Fabric Frame: Crate Paper; Clear word sticker: My Little Bicycle; Enamel dots: My Mind’s Eye
You can see that I added some circles of scrap paper behind the masked circles, and added a few on top of the pattern, using some dimensional adhesive.
I didn’t want to waste the rest of my cut out file – so I created this quick card using some of the scraps!
Supplies: Patterned Paper: DearLizzy; Flags, die cut: Basic Grey; Fabric stars: Studio Calico; hemp twine
In this case, I chose to add some dimensional adhesive to the entire back of the sheet and then adhere it over an ombre paper from Dear Lizzy.
I then tucked the flags into one of the holes and added a die cut to cover up the messy parts :)
