what a sweet fun card! 🙂
This is THE most adorable card I’ve ever seen! I love the die cut edge and the color combination is so soft and sweet! I don’t have kids in school anymore, nor do I have that stamp and die set, but seeing this card makes me want both! Great job Danielle!
Oh boy, that is so pretty!
What a beautiful card, and you’ve answered questions I didn’t even ask anyone yet lol. I tend to make stark cards, I like them. But last night as I was going to sleep, I was wondering how to add more details when I choose to do so. So this card is the answer to that. And I had no idea that water was the answer to seam binding!
Very nice!
These are so adorable Danielle!
What a beautiful card ! I always wondered how this was done, and you demonstrated it beautifully. Thank you! I cannot wait to try it!
So very happy to see you doing another Make It Monday. You do a wonderful job … always full of inspiration and unique ideas. Your cards are adorable. As a retired teacher, I can say I would have loved to start the school year with an adorable card like these!!
Wow! Your cards are gorgeous. Such dreamy colours. Love them.
Beautiful card Danielle I love the color combo and it is so elegant and homey at the same time, The seam binding was a real nice touchHave a Blessed day, DIANA L.

Great technique and videos Thank you so much Danielle!

I ADORE this card!! Thanks so much Danielle!
Thank you, Danielle. I love this technique and also the sentiment.
I love this card. I just went online and purchased the stamp and die set to make this. I went to look for seam binding (I do not sew so know nothing about seam binding). But the seam binding they had was called bias tape and the girl said it was the same thing. But it was not very soft and it looked thicker than what you used. Where did you get yours and can you give me any tips on finding something similar? Thanks so much,
any info appreciated 🙂

These are so cute!
Love this card. What a great way to use my dies as a border.
The receiver will surely only get one as beautiful and unique as this one. Love this!
What a fabulous way to use dies that is surprising and fun! I love it and can’t wait to give it a try! Thanks so much for sharing!!!
GORGEOUS card and such a wonderful video! Hope I can pull this off! TFS!!!
Mary,
You are right, bias tape is much different than seam binding. I tried that too before, and I agree, it’s not very soft and doesn’t tie as well as seam binding. I found mine online at zipperstop.com. It’s called Hug Snug seam binding. Thanks for your note!
Danielle
