wow! What happens to the card after its cast a second time? I'd definitely use this as is

Woah.  That's pretty broken. 2 mana for a 3/4 is good to begin with.

I'd play it 

The only problem is that Instants and Sorceries aren't Permanents. If you're trying to have the user get back their exiled spells that he exiled, I would word it like this: "When ? dies, return all cards exiled by ? to their owners hands." This also prevents him from being absurdly broken by being able to bring back {Sever the Bloodline}d/{Oblivion Ring}ed/etc. cards. If he sends back all of the exiled cards he's just too strong. Balance 😉

Maybe we'll finally get some sort of "{T}, pay whatever mana, draw a card" land.

Went with instant/sorcery, but my heart wasn't in it.

Ideally I would create a powerful aura that has a built-in protection from getting 2-for-1'ed. {Rancor} is very lonely in that department, and is a green 1-drop. If I had my way, I'd make a white or white/blue 3-4 drop aura that includes a rancor-ish effect.
{Angelic Destiny}?
This^^ is why I voted enchantment, but I wouldn't be upset over artifact either. So what rarity will it end up? Most likely mythic, sadly

Gorzo

Totally forgot about angelic destiny :P Still, more playable auras would be nice. But I'd really like too see what kind of instants/Sorceries the player-world can come up with - I love {Vanish Into Memory} which came out of the last "you make the card."

Where is {vanish in to memory} useful? I think it can be used for getting a few extra cards, but you also have to throw them away when it comes back.

Use it after a pump spell like {giant growth}, or targeting a massively top-heavy creature like {Ball Lightning}, or targeting a token that will never come back at all... It can be used in many ways, and at the very worst, it functions as a "draw X cards, discard X cards, plus flicker a creature" which is incredibly useful.

Or with a creature with high power and low toughness. There are some 5/1's that woul be perfect targets
