So, my life has been a bit more crazy than usual. I know I promised to share more of the projects from World Card Making Day and decided to stop all the bookkeeping that I was doing for upcoming events and share what is one of my favorite cards and
the matching tag from WCMD. As you may or may not know, pink is my favorite color. I love to wear it and even have it as part of the color scheme in my dressing room. So, when I saw this card in the 2022 July to December Mini Catalog I had to case it!
You will find the supply lists and directions for both projects below.
