Beauty and Joy Card: October 2019 Play Day Project!

Hi, Friends,
Today is a wonderful sunny day, and I am excited to share a fun project with you from October Play Day, which just happened to be on World Cardmaking Day!  It uses the stamp set Beauty and Joy, and one of my favorite embossing folders, the Brick and Mortar Embossing Folder!



The inside looks like this:


I like to stamp something on the inside of my cards; no "naked" insides for me!

Here is my recipe for this one:
