Isn’t this Magnolia Mood Birthday Card gorgeous! I adore the elegant combination of Basic Gray and Basic White. The Magnolia Mood dies pair beautifully with the Magnolia Mood stamp images.
Today’s 1 Minute to WOW! Video shows you one of my favorite tricks for keeping cutting plates from warping with use in the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine (now 10% off). I even show you a very heavily used “bottom” plate so that you can see that it has remained flat. The key is using the same cutting plate on the bottom and simply flipping it with each use!
