June Technique Cards

June was our technique class and this month the technique was called Stencil and Dies. It's a great way to add a different look to your cards. Select a solid die to use for the front of the card. Choose a neutral color layer and cut out the shapes. Adhere this to a simple background designer series paper and then to your card base. Stamp the greeting and decorate. It is that simple!
