Pampered Pets Pop Twist mechanism

Pampered Pets – Pop Twist card

Sometimes it’s good to revisit techniques. This fun fold was all the rage about 3 years ago. The stamp set I chose is just perfect for this type of card. The patterned papers in the Playful Pets suite on page 40 to 42 have the most adorable artist’s impressions of cats and dogs. It may […]
