Hey crafty friends hope you’re having an awesome week so far. I just finished playing with the @teamspellbinders December small die of the month club kit. And how fun. You get all the dies to make the window, the sky, the kitties, the plants and three sentiments. Of course one of the plants is knocked over - you know cats LOL. Grab your kit soon before it sells out. #cardmaking #papercrafting #diy #teamspellbinders #neverstopmaking #spellbindersclubkits #paperart #craftersofinstagram #handmadecards #cardmakersofinstagram
