Hello! Jen Kotas here today with three cards featuring the Justine’s Farm Collection by Justine Dvorak. This is a sweet collection of five press plate sets, four featuring adorable farm animals.
One of the best things about BetterPress plates is that they can be used with the BetterPress System and the Glimmer Hot Foil System! When I’m already using either system, I like to make up extras, even if I don’t plan to use them yet. This is especially true for any sentiments.
Impress the DaisyPress Plate and Die Set using Black BetterPress Ink on a Porcelain A2 BetterPress Cotton Card Panel. Create sentiments on a separate panel and cut out.
