... WELL ...

I hunted through both the "Craft Room" and "MyCutSearch" for a bell cut on one of  the cartridges that I own and came up with a big fat zero !!

BUT ...

...Not to be beaten, I used a lovely wooden bell embellishment and Cricut George and Basic Shapes for all my background mats and layers

...not very challenging or creative I'm afraid but I tried .... ;-) 

I used some beautiful  freebie papers from Kaisercraft

The bell was another freebie and guess what???

 Freebie card candy too !!!

The lace and ribbon were in my stash and the card blank left over from my recent Christmas card marathon make !!!

I used the left overs to cover the inside too

... SO ...

I may be lacking a bell cut but I do have a thrifty make !!

... TOP TIP ...

I always use mm's when I mat and layer so that they can be cut with a tiny 2mm border.
The expressions "centre point" function is amazing for cutting accurately and centring the focal point.
