Realistic Primrose Card Tutorial with Serenity Garden Dies

Step by Step Tutorial: Multicolor BetterPress Cards Made Easy
Hi there crafty friends! I’m Rebecca Keppel and today I am sharing the simplest way to create a multicolor BetterPress card using the Spellbinders Flourishing Betterpress Plates with a Registration Template. If you’ve never used a Spellbinders Registration template, don’t worry! I’ll share all the steps you need to follow, but essentially, the Registration template is an acetate sheet marked with each of the plates from the set.
