Flower Cut-outs - free file and texture

As promised, here are the flower cut-outs that I posted about yesterday. I did cut these out (yellow blade, at force of 15 for 24# printer paper) and they cut out without any problems (other than my mat was a bit too sticky - I had just sprayed it, lol!).
I think my favorite one is the 12 petal (with the dark pink middle). I placed bling in the center because I had some handy but you could use another circle, a brad or even a button. I think the one pointy shape (4th one from the left below) would look great as a sun.
Enjoy crafting and as always I would love to see any projects you make with these. Download the file by clicking here or on the image below. The yellow dotted texture is embedded in the file.

Nelda these are way cool, I saw you helping someone with this on the forum the other day and was going to have a go at it..was so intrigued with the way you demonstrated how to do this type of file, the things you can do with MTC just totally amaze me on a daily basis, always something new to learn...you are the bomb!!! Thanks for the share :)

Thank you, I was wondering how these were made. They are all over the place right now.

I love all you have created and want to thank you so much for all you share ... I just can't seem to download any of the files from my.pogoplug.com

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance!!

Nelda said...

bck, so sorry about that, Pogoplug changed their setting and messed up my links. I have fixed the link to this file and will fix the others as I receive comments. Thanks for the kudos!

you are just a COPYCAT.

NELDA, if there is no such a copyright thing in the law, why you include "My Free Copyright" and Terms of use? you seem have a problem with yourself!!

Nelda said...

Read the law - ideas cannot be copy-righted. In fact, I encourage you to take any of my ideas and make them yourself - that is legal. But taking something I make and calling it yours is a bit different. Maybe you need to read up on this - read Tabberone's site. I get ideas from all over the place. Taking an idea and making it mine is legal.

You will see that I only show pictures of what I make with other's products (files) but I do not share any file unless it is something that I have designed myself. I do not share other people's files. I expect this same respect from others (and it is the law). Take my ideas and use them to inspire your own creations and designs but do not take my files and call them your own.

Nelda, these flowers are gorgeous! I use both the Silhouette Cameo Designer software and Adobe Illustrator to create files. Wondering how I can get the partly cut out effect like on your flowers. Any ideas?

Nelda said...

Linda, I don't use AI much but this effect should be able to be done in both AI and SS. I know in SS you should be able to draw the flowers and then use the node editing tool to break the line. The ladies at Silhouette Users Forum http://s15.zetaboards.com/Silhouette_Plus/index/ may be able to help you more.
