Hello and welcome to my blog! You should have arrived here from Arjita’s blog! So happy you’ve stopped by!

There is a fantastic new release out from Waffle Flower Crafts and today’s card features the coolest Buffalo Plaid Stencil Duo, Wide Alpha Dies and the Sentiment Additions stamps and coordinating dies that you are going to love!

I created a very monochromatic design, creating my own Buffalo Plaid using one color of ink. How fun is this? The Wide Alpha dies work perfectly with the smaller stamped and die cut sentiments. Here is my video showing you how I created this card project:
