Today I am creating with the Craft-A-Flower: Daisy Layering Die Set ( ALTN ) and participating in a blog hop celebrating this beautiful set. I don’t know about you but I just love all things layering – stamps, dies, stencils, you name it, I love it!

Feel free to change up the colour, pattern or template to suit your personal style! I’m more than likely going to gift these as a card pack so I thought I would stuck to a colour palette. For the most part I used Tutti Frutti, Tiki Torch and…
Nuvo expanding mousse is the latest craze hitting our cardmaking world these last couple months!
