Crafting with You; one more way to use it!

May 4, 2023

During this week's Live video I shared how to make this cute card featuring the Crafting with You bundle seen here; new in the 2023-24 Annual Catalog.

This card is done in Boho Blue with only white to accent it. I stamped the background with the Cheerful Daisies stamp. I cut a slit in the stamped & die-cut machine with a craft knife to insert the textured White layer into.

I added a 1" strip of the new In Color 6 X 6" DSP to the White cardstock before I die-cut it with the new Countryside Corners dies.

I shared the following photo last week to show you the newest In Colors but since I made a video showing you how to make this card I'm sharing it again now.

Which color is your favorite? From left to right – Pebbled Path, Copper Clay, Wild Wheat, Moody Mauve & Boho Blue.
