Fill that card background with the perfect patterned paper, and add your accessories on top for a quick scene card that WOW’s!
Today’s beautiful summer inspiration comes from our designer April, who got her inspiration from the Tropical Dreams 6×6 Paper Pad. April said, “This scene is what my vacation dreams are made off as my favorite place to be is sitting in the sun and watching the ocean waves.” We love how the background paper she chose fills up the space and creates a complete scene for you to add to as you wish. This card feels like summer and we couldn’t agree more with the sentiment…. some of the best memories ARE made in flip-flops!!!
