I used the Stitched So Sweetly Dies to add a decorative layer to the card.

For this card I used one 4″ x 5-1/4″ Melon Mambo cardstock to create all the Melon Mambo layers including the embellishments for the inside & outside of the card.

  1. I enjoyed your fun told video. I am an Independent Demonstrator from Stampin Up and am glad I found your website. I’ve only been a demonstrator for 14 months. But this month I fell a crushed my arduous bone in my wrist. With help from my friends I will only have missed one class that was scheduled for the week that I broke my wrist

  2. Please excuse my texting but it isn’t up to par

  3. These are just stunning. I LOVE the tips on how to use the cardstock to get your smaller layers without having to use a new piece. I want to make one of these. I LOVE that DSP!

  4. I am a new subscriber. I love this card. You make it look so easy with your video. Thank you so much.
