Three ways with Simply Soft

Cant have a card class without homemade cakes!

Did a card-making class for all my colleagues at work.   Great fun was had by all, and the reason I used Simply Soft is that it is so versatile and three people can by using the stamps from each set at the same time.   Especially liked using the melt pot for the first time to create my embellishments.   In fact I have just made myself a new padded headboard studded with embellishments created with the melt pot.

Stef took this without me knowing!
