Grown With Love Tutorial & Spotlight with Lisa Recap

It's a double-header today!

In addition to my weekly tutorial (included below) I'm also including the recording from last night's "Spotlight with Lisa" Facebook Live event. I've also included pictures of the card I demonstrated and supplies in this post.

Sunday is the final day to order your July Studio Stamps in the Mail (SSITM). This month's edition includes the Coffee Cafe Bundle (stamp set and coordinating Framelits) and the Early Espresso ink pad, along with pre-cut supplies to make 8 cards. I include a video and PDF tutorial making it easy for you to stamp right along with me. Plus, all my SSITM receive Live with Lisa as a bonus!

Get all the details by clicking on the image below. Deadline to order is July 16th. There's something amazing about walking to your mailbox and finding a hand stamped card. Don't overlook the impact your hand stamped creations can provide. Today's tutorial will provide step by step instructions for a simple "pick me up" card. Create one. Mail it. I promise, someone will be glad you did!

I've included written instructions below for those of you using a mobile device. I also have a free PDF tutorial available for those that would like to download and save this project for a later day.
