Layering the white die cut over the teal to allow a whisker of a border adds a ton of impact and creates more of that floaty feeling for the big, gorgeous blooms.

For this card, the white serves as the “shadow”, adding a subtle highlight for the eye between the soft colors of the actual cover and the background. SO pretty and so easy!

Now for some cards made with a cover die all on its own. This was one of our most shared holiday cards and you can see why – candy colors and a friendly fella combine to make something just so charming!
