Happy 2018 my papercrafting friends! May all your dreams come true!

To kick the year off I have made a video especially for you on the easy yet wonderful ... Multi Step Card!
I have had so much fun playing with the Ritz Collection, have you seen it?

It is full of neutral backgrounds and has amazing foils, panels, borders and die cuts. I must confess I have a few of the 12" and 6" paper pads in my stash .... it's just so easy to use and I love that!
I have been making these multi step cards for years and my family and friends love them; so I thought I would share with you lovely peeps! 

It is quite a simple and quick card to make and I am sure it will become a favourite card foundation!


So go grab a cuppa and take 13 minutes or so to watch my video, I do hope you can find the time!

A Trio of quick and easy cards should start the season of Christmas Card making of to a great start! 
I believe we only have about 16 weeks to go 😜.
I have used two of the new mini dies in this collection. They are inexpensive and cut so beautifully! This is the Highland Reindeer, you can choose to have him with or without antlers that come with this mini set, isn't he gorgeous!

For each of my cards, I cut a base from 'sheet 9' of the collection, 3 7/8" x 5 7/8" and distressed the edges. 


The three images I chose were from sheet 7, (oh just look at the other beautiful elements on this sheet, so many possibilities!)

I cut my card bases …
