Hi there! Today I’m joining Simon Says Stamp for their Make Merry Blog Hop, and I have a project featuring the Good Vibes stamp set along with the Vibes word die.
I stamped the diamonds from Good Vibes using several colors of Pinkfresh Studio inks. I die cut the Vibes word die using gold foil & vellum.
Here’s a video to show you how I created this card.
