A bit of tearing to create texture and then popping up the sentiments that have been trimmed down and matted onto a piece of Basic Black. Quick and simple, but also quite lovely with all it’s layers and texture.
What do you think? Have you ever used these card packs for card making? Did you know that this card pack is part of our Last Chance List and is only available while supplies last? As we wind down our 2025 Annual Catalog why not stop by my store and check out the items that are retiring today?

Yesterday I shared a fun card that I made with you inspired by a demonstration at OnStage. (You can see my post HERE sharing videos and PDF for this project.)
Today I wanted to share my Technique Book with you.
When I started stamping I kept every card I made that used a technique so that I could remember how I created it. Not exactly the point of making a card, right? We should be sending them out!
So, this book is designed as a companion to my Classes and Team Training. It uses our Memories & More 6″ x 8″ Album and pages so it allows you to keep a little sample of the technique along with step by step instructions for that technique all in one handy place – So you can reach for them easily! Now I send those cards instead of hanging on to them and you can too!
Here is the Reverse Die Cutting Technique Page and assembly instructions PDF for this project, so you can see how it looks and give it a try.
I’m BIG on instructions so I include them with every Class I do, whether it is a LIVE event or KIT to GO Class. And with your first Class/and order album and page order I send you a PDF with the cover labels so you can decorate your Technique Album as desired using your favorite technique.
Enjoy!
Stop back by next week when I’ll be sharing my organizational items for the NEW Mini Catalog!
