Hi friends, today I’m sharing, what I’m calling a Floating Double Panel Card.
It’s a simple mat and layer card, but I’ve added little ‘springs’ in between each layer to lift it all.
This style is easy to adapt and use on any size of cards you like, and great for many occasions too!
This is a 5 x 7 size and I will be sharing a 6 x 6 version soon.
This looks great in a landscape or portrait orientation.
I die-cut real leaves to embellish the cards.
