Walkthrough Video - Working With Fine Line Or Light Stroke Stamped Images - Featuring Dragonfly Garden
Today's video is a detailed analysis of a belly band card. I believe this is only the second belly band card I have ever made. I use the Dragonfly Garden stamp set which has very thin lines. These thin lines make it more challenging to get a crisp clean stamped image.
A unique aspect of this card that I forgot to mention in the video is that there are NO popped up elements! I cannot...
Fun Fold Friday Video - Featuring Hydrangea haven + SU Trimmer Demo

Create With Me Video - Part 1 & Stamp With Me Part 2 - Avid Projects
With all this rain I am so appreciating creating cards! Today's video showcases three avid cards made using the Hydrangea Haven bundle and I used two of the three stamped focals I created in the previous video (linked below). I use the Take Your Pick tool extensively throughout the video. It is a key tool for working with intricate paper projects.
Part two will finish up the final three...
