I knew in this layout I was going to use the beautiful, soft tones of the Cocoa Vanilla Studio ‘Storyteller’ collection and I needed to match it with a floral cut file from CUT to YOU. I ended up deciding to use the Flower Band cut file. I love this cut file for several reasons… 1) It is so pretty 2) There are tw

I made these tag cards for the little challenge tribute for Rachel Greig from Darkroom Door who sadly lost her cancer battle. I also made them for Father's Day too!   This was the birthday card that I made for hubby this week for his birthday!
