You Are card designed by Betty Wright
Would you believe that this adorable card was designed using no patterned paper whatsoever? This one is all about the stamps! I love how Betty stamped the front of the base with berrylicious ink using a striped background stamp on white paper and then stamped the berrylicious tag with a Swiss Dot background stamp on berrylicious cardstock and Sweet Tooth pigment ink.
Now that you, too, have fallen in love with this beautiful card, just click here and I will take you over to visit Betty where she shares step-by-step instructions. Keep up the good work spreading those smiles one card at a time!
