Welcome to InKing Royalty’s July Blog Hop! It’s Christmas in July, and today’s Blog Hop is filled with projects inspired by … you guessed it … Christmas! What fun! Although Stampin’ Up!’s 2017 Holiday Catalog will be released to demonstrators this week (we can’t wait to share that with you),…
If you’ve been a frequent visitor to my blog you know that I’m a card maker and sometimes a 3D maker but not a scrapbooker. If you are like me, you enjoy making cards to send to your friends and family. But, even if you aren’t a scrapbooker, that doesn’t…
