I continue to introduce you to the Romancing the Swirl collection by Becca Feeken. This time I created two easy cards, which you can easily and quickly make, and they look very elegant.

To create them I used A2 Corner Cotillion set, which I think one of the best in this collection. For my second card I create landscape cad base.

I tried to show all the beauty of this card creator die, that's why I didn't add too much details to my cards and left them very simple.
