VIDEO: Watercolor Place Cards

Happy Saturday everyone!

I have another Instagram video request for you today.

Bonus? This one features another fun and easy technique that can be applied to many different projects - a watercolor wash background with heat embossing. In the video below, I share how to use our Gift Card Layers die to turn these into gorgeous place card settings.
