    Ardyth, what an encouraging video. I love how the inspiration of the quilts gave you what you needed to spark the creation of those two cards. I was looking through some Autumn coloured backgrounds I had created recently trying to come up with some inspiration to make an Autumn Wedding card. It didn't come to me immediately but lookimg through my Autumn stamps and punches did do ally give me the spark I needed. Thanks as always for inspiring and encouraging us all. 😊🇨🇦

    For inlays try using a piece of press and seal on the back after you die cut. Then pull the border away and the inlay pieces should stay in place. This will also allow you to add shadows to the die cuts. Great ideas and cards.

    Recently I did a mini reset of my craft space which resulted in a basket of partial paper pads, die cuts, twine, folders, embellishments, etc. that I decided I would pass on or throw out, but first I wanted to see what cards I could make from this limited pile. I ended up making 40 cards over the next few days! It really helped jump start my creativity and I was even able to give some love to stamp sets I hadn't used in a while.
