Rooted in Nature Sunset
Hello crafters Barry here once again with another project to share with you using the Rooted in Nature & the Sale-a-bration Home to Roost Stamp sets. Normally my Sunday video is based on #simplestamping. But this week it doesn’t quite fit into that category as it’s got a few techniques, as well as several stamp sets & tools, are used.

It’s probably one of the first techniques we’d seen at craft shows which got us into this style of crafting in the first place. Below you will find finished pictures of the project as well as being able…
