July Step-It-Up Series Day 3 Card Tutorial
Today is the final day of the Step-It-Up Series for July. This tutorial is more geared towards avid stampers, or crafters who have a decent crafting arsenal. Of course, that doesn't mean one needs to be an avid crafter to make this though. It just has a greater supply list, and generally, the avid designs have some more intricate instructions or techniques. For this design, adhering layers on top of thicker trim can be tricky. It is a lot easier to do when you have Dimensionals, or better yet, Mini Dimensionals. Even using Mini Dimensionals, I still needed to cut some smaller in order to fit them between the lengths of trim. I put the Dimensional pieces on the card between the Braided Linen Trim and then added the sentiment layer afterwards. It seems a little backwards, but it makes for a much easier and quicker way to finish a card.
