I’ve got lots of paper to play with and I found a new favorite that I’m calling a Faux Twisted Paper technique. I can use this in card making, scrapbook pages, and even a bookmark if I wanted–so many possibilities!
You guys know that I love finding ways to create with my scraps of Designer Series Paper. Today’s video is perfect for those of you who love to do the same!
