Good morning SCT fans! Nicole here to share with you another FREE cut file, some inspiration and continue our partner celebration with our friends at American Crafts!
First, take a peek at this month’s free cut file:
I decided to keep this one simple and cut it from textured white cardstock and then back the cut file with various patterned papers.
Supplies: Cardstock: American Crafts; Patterned Paper: Pink Paislee, Amy Tangerine; Art Crayons & Stencil Brushes: Vicki Boutin; Enamel Dots: Simple Stories
Once the background was filled in, I used some Vicki Boutin Art Crayons to add a little pop of colour to some cardstock where my design was going to go. I also added in several fussy cut paper flowers and leaves around my design and photos.

I hope you enjoy this one, it would also be a great stencil – I just love the sun catcher feel of it!
Thank you Nicole! SCT friends if you’re on Instagram be sure to follow Nicole at @nicolenowosad and to see more of her cut files be sure to follow @justnick too!
