For my video this week, I wanted to show you how to do the twisted ribbon technique, which makes a lovely background for whatever you are using for a focal point. For my sample, I used several of the dies and sentiments from the Framed Florets collection. This set is available for early-release ordering and will also be in the mini catalog that comes out in January. I used designer paper from the Boughs of Holly package of DSP.
This card design is simple to do and a great way to use up scraps of DSP, and it can be used for any occasion.
If you missed the live video, you can watch the replay here.
