Drawn Detail Floral Cutting File Set and Digi Craft Bundle Out Now

February 15, 2019 — 2 Comments

Floral die cuts are a paper crafters go-to and must-have yet cutting them from plain cardstock can leave them looking a little flat.

That’s why, this week, I have put together a range of layered floral cutting files AND included ten special detail designs that can be drawn onto the cardstock prior to cutting! Awesome, right?!

So, in November last year, I stumbled across an awesome product that folks with electronic cutting machines, and perhaps others, are going to LOVE – especially if you want to make wallets or handbags.

I, therefore, set to work testing it with a simple project that I made in Canvas Workspace, cut on my Scan N Cut, hand stitched together and am pleased to be able to share those results …

Now, it might seem a little silly of me to share a list of SVG sellers with you, considering that I run my own SVG cutting file site, however, I know that you know that others exist, so there’s no point in being silly about it.

Plus, I buy from them too, lol. *sigh. I will never be rich.

For this week’s Scan N Cut Saturday post I have therefore popped together a short list of three of my favourites based on value and design.
