My favorite card……So Far!

I love fun folds and the unexpected! Now that the NEW 2024-2025 Annual catalog is live, I wanted to share my favorite card so far! The Spotlight On Nature Bundle caught my eye immediately when I was browsing through the new catalog. It was really the dies that got my attention at first. It’s a collection of 12 various circles with three different intricate patterns around the edges. The Spotlight On Nature Dies can be used with numerous stamp sets, not just the one it’s bundled with. If you’re like me, you love more bang for your buck when you’re buying products!

Another reason I love this card is the simplicity of the fun fold. When you open the card there’s another circle die that pops out at you. It’s unexpected. The inside of most cards have a sentiment and maybe a simple image or a strip of DSP. This one has that and more! I was able to use Unbounded Beauty 12 x 12 DSP, an embossing folder, embellishments, images and a sentiment from the Spotlight on Nature set.
