First Kiss

I have a couple of weddings coming up in the next few weeks and this cute little easel card is what I created for one happy couple. I've used the classic & stylish Black & White with a pop of colour combination with a very delicate 'Key to my Heart' die. I've used pop dots to create a ledge to help the easel card to stand up.

We are giving away 3 sets of Mexpy Markers when you comment on the main giveaway post. Pop over to get this digi stamp from The East Wind for half price and the chance to win more prizes!
