I decided to change it up a bit, by thinking of other professionals, whom wear scrubs.

Well Hello Crafty Friends,
This weeks card has evolved, because as I seem to be falling back in love with die cutting again. I never really stopped die cutting, but am a stamper at heart. But the dies we are able to get hold of now compared to 10, 15 yrs ago are just breath taking. Adding a real professional elegance to our cards. 
None more so than the new Honey Cuts, water color lines cover plate. 


Here I teamed it up with altenew
stamps.
