Parchment Ideas - Background Panel

It comes in various weight, colours and patterns ... even foiled, so why not give it a go the next time you make some cards.

I purchased both the 5 x 7 and the A2 box die sets. This video is so helpful that I have saved it to refer back to until I get more familiar with using the dies. I have struggled with box-making and know these will be so useful. Thank you!
