Today’s card features the Stampin Up! Wildly Happy & Textured Essentials Stamp Sets. All four cards feature a super fun fold design.
I really had fun creating these cards. Each card features it’s own unique background. I think my favorite is the panda and the torn background; however, I love the new Stampin’ Up! Velveteen Paper too. The cute fox and bunny both feature this new soft, flocked paper. It’s easy to use with your punches too!
