Today I have a quick, but cute card that I made using the Preserves cartridge. This one is an oldie, but goodie! I love this cartridge and think about it more around the spring time.
![]() |
| I used Close To My Heart cardstock and Bo Bunny double dot paper. |
![]() |
| I cut the strawberries out at 3 1/2". |
![]() |
| I used a cuttlebug folder to give the card a little something extra. |
