    1. I just realized the video tutorial was done for the most recent Online Card Class--Clean and Simple 2, on one of the last days. The stamp I used was just a stripe stamp from Impression Obsession's border set, but any stripe will do--PTI's Faux Ribbon, Distressed Stripes, or Super Stripes. I started with the Berry Sorbet from corner to corner to make the first X, then I stamped Summer Sunrise below both lines, then Harvest Gold and Aqua Mist, and back to Berry Sorbet. Then I did the reverse order above the first X to keep the same repetition through the top of the card. I hope that makes sense. Play around with colors--it's fun!
