Hi Crafty Friends,
I am visiting you again with a new video. It demonstrates how you can use the beautiful stamp, Radiant by Penny Black three different ways. I guess I am a little obsessed with this stamp since I have used it before but it is the perfect bloom to fill a card design.
Take a look and see what you think. I love the use of the patterned paper and heat embossing to create a different look.
