I sure do love teaching fun card making techniques like this one. The Floating Strips Technique is easy to do and so versatile. With your favorite Designer Series Papers or card stock and a Window Sheet, the possibilities are endless. You can even use paper scraps or die cut images for this technique. It’s fun, fast, and easy, and will give your next card the WOW factor. Enjoy my video demonstration of 2 cards I made using 2 different versions of the Floating Strips Technique, then grab your supplies and give this technique a try. You’ll be so glad you did.
Cards made in my video feature brand new online exclusive products coming March 1st including the Naturally Gilded 12″ x 12″ Specialty DSP and the Hello, Irresistible Suite. I can’t wait to share many more fun projects with these products! You’re going to LOVE them. Yes, I said LOVE!
