Simple textures and a crisp, contrasting die cut stem are the foundation of today’s card. The texture comes from Stampin’ Up! Radiating Stitches Dies (NOW BACK IN STOCK) and the die cut stem in Basic Black is from Stampin’ Up! Artistic Dies.
WHAT I LOVE ! Little touches bring so much personality to this hello card. Coordinating black adhesive dots (Classic Matte Dots) and Crumb Cake Baker’s Twine are the “magic” to bring it all together.
