Rose Gold Wedding Paper Cut With Free Cut File

I've been AWOL for quite a while, but don't worry I've been crafting like crazy.  I have also doing lots of home improvements, so I've lots to catch up with you about!

Free Cut File to Download

As its wedding season, the first project I'm sharing is my geometric papercuts, including a free cut file that you can download here.  I've included the file both in SVG and also GSD format (for those who use the basic Silhouette Studio software).

Two Options: Floating and Edge to Edge

I couldn't decide whether to have the papercut floating or edge to edge within the frame, so I've included both options.  I ended up cutting both and I included the smaller papercut on a greetings card to give the choice.  For the perfectionists amongst us, the border around the smaller papercut allows you to perfectly centre the papercut within the frame.

Crafty Cutter High Shine Rose Gold Vinyl

Crafty cutter is the queen of speciality effect vinyl and she has a massive range of rose gold self-adhesive and heat transfer vinyls.  Here's the unboxing video of a giant order I did at Christmas time if you're interested in seeing more:
She now sells a new high shine rose gold vinyl which is also rose gold on the reverse - great for glasses etc.  Charlotte kindly sent me a sheet to try and I'm in love.  It cuts and weeds like a dream and I think it looks ace on this project.  It's currently priced at £2.50 per A4 sheet.

Other Supplies

FRAME: I got the frame for £6 from BHS, which I've just seen is closing down again:(  I have seen the same frames from Boots and Paperchase, albeit at a higher price point
PAPER: I used 125gsm hammer paper from Paperchase
CARD:  I used 300gsm hammer card from Hobbycraft for the greetings card
FONT: I used the Strong Glasgow by Hero Fonts which is free for personal use

My Favourite Suppliers Series

Here in the UK, we crafters browse longingly at the superstores in the US.  Prices are so low and they have all the nicest colours and patterns.  We are officially well jeal! 

I've found some lovely sellers here in Blighty though offering great products at good prices.  My best recommendations are normally from follow crafters on the UK based Facebook groups - I find them great communities to discuss all things crafty, especially suppliers. 

Over the next few weeks, I plan to share my favourite shops who are selling the best crafting products including:
  • Paper and card in all it's glorious textures, finishes and colours
  • Self-adhesive vinyl - including matte, gloss, glitter, chrome and frosted glass
  • Heat transfer vinyl - including matte, flock, chrome, glitter, glow in the dark and reflective
  • Clothing blanks such as onesies, hoodies and  t-shirts
  • Accessories such as shopping, make up bags, mirrors and badges
  • Acrylic - plaques, baubles, clocks and even cute clothes hangers

Please note, I have zero affiliation with these companies, with no benefits for posting my reviews, I just really like them :)
