    You can also make the backing cards fit together sort of like a puzzle. Four separate designs but when you place them together it’s 1 big design 😊

    It would be cool to do a "decorate the scene" that the buyer could create with stickers. Decorate the inside of Bonbun's tree stump house, or Puddin's room with all of his costumes. Love your work, you are such a joy to watch. I've been here from almost the beginning and it's been wonderful to see the things that you have created!

    Have you thought to talk with your local printer who always does things for you when you need stuff quick if they could come close to pricing of other printer and give them all your biz? Seems they do well and shopping local is a great way to support your fellow small business. Maybe they will surprise you and welcome the opportunity. All your cards etc are so stinkin cute 😘

    Hi Catherine, fantastic video, could you not just use your local printer to do your backing cards for you! Rather than using the one who keeps making mistakes all the time, such a waste of time, money, resources etc for them to keep making mistakes. Not to mention the time it takes from your business to sort out these issues all the time. Love the pin set idea, love the square backing for them too 😊, thank you for your video today great content as always 😊keep up the good work ❤
