A very miserable day weather wise here in the N.E, so I gave myself a 'craft day' and managed to finish another card using the lovely Secret Garden papers, this time I thought I would use my Cabinet dies and make it look like a Secret Garden. A little bit of cutting, some hand made flowers and leaves and that's it! oh, and some Vintage Photo Distress ink - Quick and easy!
