Individual SVGs · Dimensions in mm

The smaller panel sits inside the window, so it needs a backing piece behind it.

From pieces to finished shape

Center the circular inset. Flat 132 × 75 mm; a 65 mm window and a 57 mm inset, which leaves a 4 mm gap all round. You supply the card and a backing piece.

  1. The 65 millimeter and 57 millimeter circles side by side.

    The two circles

    The big circle is the window you cut in your card. The small circle is an optional inset that sits inside the window; it is smaller than the window, so it needs a backing piece. Keep both at the same size.

  2. The circle cut as a window in a card front.

    Make the opening first

    Place the 65 mm circle on your card front, leaving the margins your card needs, and cut it out as a window. Cut the 57 mm inset on its own.

  3. The 57 mm inset centered in the 65 mm window, on a backing piece.

    Back the inset

    Center the inset in the window: 4 mm in from the left and 4 mm down from the top of the window. A 4 mm gap shows all round. Glue it to a backing piece behind the window; on its own it can't hold in the opening. The dashed rectangle shows where a backing piece goes; it isn't in the download.

What to have ready for this project
Material
Your own card, and a backing piece if you use the inset. The download has no card base.
Software
Design Space, Silhouette Studio or any program that opens SVG. Check the size reads in millimeters before you cut.
Cut and score
Cut the big circle as the window in your card front. Cut the small inset separately, at the same size.
To put it together
A backing piece and glue for the inset. It is 8 mm smaller than the window, so it can't cover the opening by itself.

Use the pieces together

The full SVG holds every design on one sheet. A single file lets you work on one design without the rest. Select every piece of a layered design before you resize it, so borders, holes and insets stay in proportion.

Groups and layers

  • card front cutouts
  • matching inset panels
  1. SVG dimensions are in millimeters. The full-pack dimensions describe the arranged sheet; each individual file has its own dimensions.
  2. Import one individual SVG or ungroup the full sheet. Preserve the aspect ratio and check a known dimension before cutting.
  3. Solid shapes are the pieces you cut. Negative spaces use the even-odd fill rule. Dashed lines are folds: set them to Score, or delete them and fold by hand.
  4. Circle: Cut the larger shape out of your own card front as the window. Keep at least the margin required by your chosen material.
  5. Arch: Cut the larger shape out of your own card front as the window. Keep at least the margin required by your chosen material.
  6. Rounded rectangle: Cut the larger shape out of your own card front as the window. Keep at least the margin required by your chosen material.
  7. Star: Cut the larger shape out of your own card front as the window. Keep at least the margin required by your chosen material.
  8. Leaf: Cut the larger shape out of your own card front as the window. Keep at least the margin required by your chosen material.
  9. Faceted window: Cut the larger shape out of your own card front as the window. Keep at least the margin required by your chosen material.

For a wedding table, pair these pieces with place cards, favor tags or box bands.

See how the pieces fold, stack and line up, which lines to set to Score, and how to resize them together.

Before you start

  • Card bases and envelopes are not included.
  • The smaller inset fits inside the opening. Use your own larger backing panel if you want to cover the window from behind.
