Romancing The Swirl Inspiration | Floral Cards with Elena

Hello, dear friends! Elena Salo is here. Thank you so much for joining me again! Today is the second post where I show how you can use new collection of the dies from Becca Feeken –  Romancing The Swirl. You can find my first project using this collection here. Today I prepared for you two cards with lots of flowers.

To create the square label for my second card I used Hemstitch Squares. I find these two sets to be very pretty and have many ideas where I can use them in the future.
