The Third Card Making Tip of the Day!
Stamp and punch out a bunch of little red trucks or any other accents you use regularly to have on hand. I keep the extras in a clear envelope so they are always available for a quick accent on a card. It will be easy to change the color if needed but having the actual trucks help with planning out the design.
And now, for the quickest card ever, let the paper tell the story. The One Horse Open Sleigh Designer Series Paper with its stunning winter scenery is an obvious fit.
Get the most of your stamp sets by using each one to create a variety of cards.
