Anything plastic can hold your stamps.
It’s Wacky Wednesday where a product is used in a way it is not intended! In this case it is not a product being used in a way it is not intended but a lack of product.

Rectangles at an angle.
It’s Technique Tuesday! Today I want to talk to you about the Rectangle Stitched Framelit Dies.

Instead place them at an angle so they go through smoother and also tend to not bendContinue reading “Rectangles at an angle.”
