Easel card with two step stamping

Easel Card with two-step stamping

I immediately thought of making an Easel Card when I clapped eyes on the Color & Contour two-step stamping bundle.

pop out partially die cut birthday card

Pop out partially die cut birthday card

Warmer weather calls for a pop out partially die cut birthday card and ice lolly images! I’m so disappointed that the Ice Cream Corner Suite on page 49 of the January-June 2021 mini is retiring. There is such a short window to blog about this. iIce cream is one of my favourite foods! Is it […]

Floral Birthday card with Pretty Perennials

Do you like floral cards? In today’s project I used the Pretty Perennials stamp set to make a pretty floral birthday card. This isn’t a normal card. I made one back in 2018 but can’t seem to find it anywhere on my blog, so maybe I didn’t share it. This type of card is also […]
