Today I am sharing the cards I designed for my May Class in the Mail using the gorgeous Dandy Wishes Dies. I have to admit I initially overlooked these dies, it wasn’t until I was working on class idea which didn’t involve stamping that I thought of using them. I am so glad I did as they are stunning.

For the class I die cut all the flowers, leaves, circles and rectangles and punched the small dragonflies.
