Love your cards, Yana! I think the embossing idea on the second is great–makes a nice “home” for your tag. When you were showing the stamp set and your first card, I thought for sure you’d cut that stamp you used for your background apart. I was surprised when you were able to use it whole. Thanks so much for sharing these beautiful cards!
