Hi Crafty Friends,
Are you seeing signs of Autumn yet? Here at home in the San Francisco area, we are just now getting a few cooler days and light breezes. It is a welcome change from the unusually hot summer we’ve had. The slight change in weather and the new “Lovely Leaves” stamp and die set by Ink To Paper, inspired this Autumn card design.
By the way, we are lovin’ the Ink To Paper collection. Check them all out here.
Hi Crafty Friends,
Each year my granddaughter looks forward to the birthday card from her Grammy. I try every year to come up with something different. With it now her 8th birthday, I am finding I have to be more and more creative! This year I decided to make a pop-up card for her since it is pretty special.
I have created a video to get you all the ins and outs. Plus, I have also included below, a cutting and folding PDF template for the pop-up insert. I hope you enjoy the video and give it a try!
