Video: Not Quite a Blank Slate!
Hello Spellbinders and Davenpeeps! It’s Courtney Diaz again from Little Raven Ink to show you another way in which I create with the new Making Faces range.

When it comes to this machine there is no limitation on the size of the paper you want to add foiling on. However, the size of your die cutting machine…
