Dream Big... Panda on tartan background 6in square card Hi Craft addicts! Today's card is one I had great fun making but I think it could easily be made into a piece of home decor as the stamp is so large! How I made this card This stamp is approximately 4in in height so you really do need a stamping platform to get a crisp image as you can place the card and stamp where you want and then repeat stamping until it is right.

I cut it to fit the front of a 5" x 7" Black pearlescent card and attached it using Pinflair's Glue-it glue. I then cut a strip of Black card (about 3/4") that was just the width of th...
