Liberty Bell Mandala
Learn How to Make an Easy Liberty Bell Mandala
Create this 3D layered Liberty Bell using a Cricut Machine, Cardstock and Adhesive.
Layered Mandalas are one of my favorite things to design, and they are easy to form. You can use this Layered Liberty Bell to display in a shadow box or even use it on the front of a card. There are only three layers to this Liberty Bell Mandala SVG cut file.

For this project I used my Cricut Cuttlebug and a woodgrain embossing folder to give the top of the Liberty Bell Mandala a more textured look to make it realistic looking.
