For my projects today I went with 2 die cut panels that are so pretty, they are the Dog Rose panel A and the Dog Rose panel B. You can get them separately or as a bundle and can also be used together or alone. Below I have 3 card examples on how you can use these panels and how they would look in any combination.
card 1 – using both panels
For this card I combined both panels and used a “gradient layering die cuts” technique.
card 2 – using panel A
For this card I used only panel A and the “inlay die cut” technique
card 3 – using panel B
Finally, I went for a shaker card using just panel B
