I've always loved that look of cutting out an opening in the card - in fact, I've thought of trying it so many times and I never do anything outside my little comfort bubble. You do inspire me, Natalie. I know that I need to try new things. Thanks so much for sharing your time and talents with us. Your cards are always such a blessing to me and I thank you for linking up with us. God bless your week.
