I’m finding it quite therapeutic to use my Paper Snips scissors to cut images out of Stampin’ Up!’s beautiful Designer Series Paper. And I couldn’t resist CASEing this stunning card by Kim McGillis, unsing the Flight & Airy free Sale-a-bration DSP, the Scalloped Contours Dies (retiring April 30), and the Something Fancy Stamp Set (NOT retiring! YAY).
