Here are the stamps and dies featured in my two cards for today:

ODBD To My Friend ODBD Custom Lattice Background Die

ODBD Custom Pierced Rectangles Dies

For my first card, the ODBD Custom Lattice Background Die was cut from baby blue cardstock, then the center was cut out and framed in black with the ODBD Custom Pierced Rectangles Dies. The lattice panel was popped up with foam tape over a white panel which was stamped with black and light blue with the 'To My Friend' stamp set (LOVE this set!!!)  This was such a simple card to make....even the foam tape didn't take long...yay!!

My second card was just as quick!  The ODBD Custom Lattice Background Die was cut from white, then the opening was cut out with scissors (you could also use a craft knife).  The panel was popped up with foam tape over a cantaloupe colored card base which was stamped with the 'To My Friend' set in espresso brown ink.  Some baker's twine and pearls were added for embellishments. (Note: the edges of the card were protected by scratch paper while stamping the brown flowers.)

Wow, I love how you used the lattice die to frame the sentiment. I really like both of your cards but I am drawn to the blue lattice with the black frame on top and how you used the layers on your dandelion background!
