by Therese Calvird

Hi, it's Therese, and I am back with another edition of Take 2 with Therese. Today, I have stamp focus using the Fragile Foliage Stamp Set.

I decided to share 5 tips and techniques in my video today which you can find linked below. My first card has a faux embossed background on some Navy Cardstock.

I used the Pure White Embossing Powder to emboss the images.

I used the Apothecary Labels Stamp Set to create a sentiment panel.

These are lovely cards and thought how many stamp and die bundles I could use to make some like them. Heard of Sticky Specs? They’re wonderful.

Hi, Therese – At about 5:00 in the video you use some tiny dotted glue dots from a tape runner on the Fragile Foliage. That product link is not in the video and I cannot find a product like that. Can you give me a link for that? Thanks!
