When you need a thinking of you card quick and easy
In today's YouTube live I was prepared to CASE Lee Ann Greff, almost exactly. But when I got started I was inspired to switch it up a bit. I made 3 variations of the card in 30 minutes! Sometimes all you need is stamps, ink, and paper. I did add a few other things,...
