Before I get to all the details, here is a little inspiration
using PSA Essentials stamps and a little bit of
baker's twine accents.
I really enjoyed using PSA Essentials for this CAS design.
I played with 'Frenchie' & 'Dare to Dream' sets for this card.
Of course, I love my baker's twine from The Twinery
and the Maraschino was just the right touch here.
For something completely different....
I designed this clean & simple card using stamps from
PSA Essentials 'Mr & Mrs' set.
The Caribbean baker's twine was just the right border here.
