Hi everyone, Alli Roth here from Partyography! My oldest niece is turning five next month and since she’s obsessed with coming over to craft with my Spellbinders products, I thought it’s only fitting that I make her birthday card using some of her favorite etched dies.

Step 1: Cut background cardstock to 7 x 10 inches and fold it in half. Cut a…
