Hi there, crafty friends. I’m back with more inspiration from THIS new release from Simon Says Stamp… To create this card, I started by cutting a piece of white card stock to 2.75 x 5.25 to create the reveal panel.

Hi, crafty friends. I’m sharing a card today featuring the new 3D Card Die Set… I started by cutting a piece of blue card stock to 2.75 x 5.25 to create the reveal panel.

I folded each side back in opposite directions and adhered the back of the card bases together. I stamped and colored...

Howdy, crafty friends. I have two cards to share using THIS new release from the Ink Blot Shop… To create the first card… I started by stamping the image from the Happy Mail Heart stamp set on to a white card stock panel and coloring it with Copic Markers.
