Hello crafty friends. We’ve got more new goodies from ClarityCrafts today and this card features the fab ‘bamboo two-way overlay’ stamp set. I wanted to keep it pretty simple (no surprise there!) to reflect the ‘zen’ quality in the stamp I’ve used again today from the small ‘Japanese sentiments’ set. I started with a square… Read More bamboo spotlight
