Hello and Happy Tuesday! This week’s free shape of the week from Silhouette is a gift box and flower tag shape. Just in time for those Teachers’ gifts this week and Mother’s Day on Sunday. I also incorporated one of the weekly freebies from Creative Market that I mentioned in yesterday’s post since we’re all about pretty watercolor flowers these days. Shall we?
