International Crafters Video Hop - April 2024
Every month I participate in an International Crafters Video Hop - we create a project with a video and share it on YouTube with the links to all of the other videos in the Hop. I wanted to share my project with you as well as the links to the videos so you can check out all of the projects.
Our theme this month is Fun Folds and I created an Easel card featuring a sneak peek of the new Citrus Blooms Bundle from the upcoming 2024-2025 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue. I've also used some of the new In Colors that will be coming out in the catalogue - Peach Pie and Shy Shamrock.
I love this bundle and I can't wait for the coordinating products from the Mediterranean Blooms Suite to be released in May! Isn't this a pretty card!
