Hello there, it is Verity here from Pretty Little Button for the Bumbleberry Design team. Sometimes, when I think about mixed median, I think it is very messy and needs lots of layers. But in my crafty world, it doesn't have to me. I've created this clean and simple mixed media card with a few different products along with a clean and simple sentiment. You could easily change up the sentiment for any you prefer to suit the occasion.  Written and photos Clean & Simple Mixed Media Card:  To start off, adhere the Altenew Feathered Leaves stencil to a piece of Plum Punch...

Hello there, it is Verity here from Pretty Little Button for the Bumbleberry Design team. I love to add texture to my cards, and the embossing paste from Altenew is perfect for doing just that. It is a lovely lightweight paste that doesn't add to much bulk to your cards and is easy to colour or use as is for its brilliant white colour. Today, I'm using the paste with distress oxides to create a textured unisex birthday card, but you can easily swap and change the colours up depending on the recipient or the occasion. The simple design of the card lends...
