Centre step card with Rhino Ready
Today I have a fun fold centre step card made with Rhino Ready cling stamps and Rhino Ready dies, both of which are Online Exclusives. I suddenly realised that June is almost upon us and Father’s Day is not far off on June 18th. Consequently I have had to re-shuffle my schedule and squeeze in […]

Circle Sayings has a 2 ⅜” circle punch which coordinates with it, but I didn’t get the punch as I thought I already owned it. Unfortunately […]
Floating easel card with Countryside Corners
This is a floating easel card using the Countryside Corners bundle. I made one in portrait orientation which you can see HERE and wondered if I could apply it to an easel card. This time of year and especially with a colour refresh, I had tons of retiring card stock which I could happily use […]
