I hope you like it--and, if you do, I'd be very grateful if you would vote for me, pleasePlease click on the button below to go to Kylie's blog, and vote by clicking on the top right corner of the thumbnail of my card (#3), until you see the heart turn redThank you so much for your support!!

This weekend I co-hosted an Enjoy the Journey MEGA Stamp Camp with five creative friends! We had a lot of fun, made twelve amazingly beautiful cards, and received lots of compliments! You'll have to join us for our next Stamp Camp!  

The Designer Series Paper (DSP) in this suite collection is absolutely stunning! This is an extra card that I made, which is a double-box fun-fold shadow box card that folds flat to fit in a standard envelope. I love the Starry Sky and Highland Heather colour combination in this card. Check out the shopping links below to purchase this beautiful suite collection! If you live in Canada, and do not have a demonstrator, I'd love to help you out! 

This cool fun-fold card folds flat to fit in an envelope!
Here's an alternative sentiment you can use!

The frame of this card is made by die cutting the front of the box with one of our Stitched Rectangles dies.
