Hello! One of my resolutions this year is to craft more seasonally and to watercolor more often.

Hello! I’m really enjoying letting the season guide my cardmaking right now. For this card, I chose a palette of orange, navy, warm yellow, and off-white. To begin, I used the Taylored Expressions Quilted cutting plate die (now retired) to create a quilt frame from Lawn Fawn Speckled Eggshell cardstock. I love quilts, but I … Continue reading "Fall Quilt-Inspired Card"
