Hybrid Humpday - Pyramage Photos

Finally here with this week's video. YouTube was slower than molassess to upload to today. It took over an hour and a half! It turned out nice though...lol.

Hybrid Humpday - Nestie Stacker Card

I'm a little late with today's video because I had an eye screening apointment today at the hospital. Just my yearly exam...nothing wrong with me. I feel so behind these last 2 days as I had plans for a few new products in shop but things just kept getting in the way...lol. We've all had days like that haven't we?

Today I had planned a different card then what I ended up making. This idea came to me while I was designing a card making sheet but I wanted to try it out first with my Nestie dies...so I did this for a video instead. If you have any questions about how to set up the dies in your cutting machine, just leave me a comment. I had to go over it pretty quick in the video but I hope I gave you the idea how to do it...lol. Hope you enjoy today's video!
