The beauty of digital kits is that you can use them again & again, making them outstanding value for money!
I’ve used the free template I included in the kit to make this digital layout:
And I printed a couple of the Patterned Papers onto white textured cardstock & used them as traditional patterned papers to make these cards:
This kit is so much fun to use! And so versatile – from male layouts, to funky pages to family heritage mini books, you’ll find so many ways to enjoy this kit!
What’s in it?
11 patterned papers, 1 transparent overlay, 4 ribbons, 2 rub-ons, a bonus template, & more!
