You Are Awesome Card using Tumbling Blocks Quilt Etched Dies

Hi, it’s Christina. Creating a card with simple shapes can be a real eye catcher and for mine, I used the Diamond Shapes in the Tumbling Block Quilt Etched Dies from the Quilt It Collection by Lene Lok. Combine it with some pretty floral papers and you have a stunning card.
