Botanical Layers Quick & Simple Easter Card 

Botanical Layers

Today I’m sharing a Botanical Layers Quick & Simple card with you. These two cards are made for two different occasions but with the same three colors. The embossing folders used are different for each card, are from the Basic 3D Embossing Folder trio that is an online exclusive. I have listed all supplies below for the two cards, directions colors are written for the Easter card.

Do you one card more than the other or have a favorite embossing folder? Leave me comment on my blog or Facebook page as to which you like best, please. Happy Stamping!
