My daughter came home for a Father’s Day visit and since she is a first grade school teacher, she did not have to rush home so we decide to play in my craft room. Fun right? She created a variety of amazing cards, most of them using retired sets, but she also created this one and I am happy to share it with you.
It is a very simple design, but I love the elegance of the Evening Evergreen and the Very Vanilla cardstock. This background die would also look amazing in some foil sheets and or even some glitter paper. I hope you have fun creating! We certainly did!

I really like the dies that make a complete card front. I guess I need to look more closely at these dies.
Me too! Breanne was loving this die!
