I did a My Creations Box (retired now) and Chantilly Paper Packet.
The colors in the new Chantilly Paper Packet (X7163B) are so cheerful, and makes any project pop.
 Can you see the dry embossing on the roses?  Neat!

    1. Thanks, I actually stamped the images, cut one leaving a white cardstock edge and then cut the second one about an eighth of an inch from the outside edge, then I places the pieces in an embossing folder to give them more dimension, layering the two and popping it up.
