This week's cards on Outside the Box blog

Today's cards feature the Memory Box die 98631 Delicate Branch Frame. 

I used an adhesive-backed paper to cut out the die image on the left, and then I thought I could use the rest of what was left inside the frame to make the second coordinating card shown on the right.  

One cut=two cards!
