I am so excited about The Cutting Cafe‘s Hexagon Shaped Card Set Cutting Files. There is some many ways to use it, its simply amazing. This week I wanted to make a shabby card and I couldn’t resist a butterfly theme with a classic 30′s era girl with butterfly wings, and a vintage background to use with the hexagon shaped card set.

Summer is almost over, at least for the kids. I am going to be using the Bow Tie and Ribbon and the Divider Box with Handles cut files from The Cutting Cafe. These are amazingly fun to use templates.  There are so many permutations for these cut files, it makes me dizzy.
