Hello! I hope you are well.
I ordered the new Trucking Along stamp set and punch almost as soon as I got home from my recent holidays and it arrived on Monday afternoon. I think I might have taken it out of the box before the UPS man was even back in his van! Lol.
I had a little play with some of the stamps and the punch and then decided to record a video of me making my first ever card with the stamps…
There are SO many stamps to play with, but as I decided to add ‘sunflowers’ to the truck bed, I also decided to use Crushed Curry DSP and card to decorate the card base. Find out more by watching my video tutorial.
YOUTUBE TUTORIAL
I’d love you to click here to pop over to YouTube and see these new products in more detail, as well as seeing me make this card. If you enjoy watching my video, I’d love you to give it a thumbs up and leave me a wee comment too. If you haven’t already subscribed to my channel, make sure you do so when you’re there; so you don’t miss out on future videos.
Although I didn’t use the punch for my first card, I do show you it in the video.
I love this type of fold as it doesn’t use up TOO much of your beloved card and it there’s lots of space inside to stamp a sentiment or write a personal message…
And it folds flat to fit into a standard C6 envelope…
