Tileability Card


Tileability cards make a real impression. They marry large stamps from our greeting card header stamps with both regular and metallic Inkabilities inks. These inks can also be used with Suze's Hot Pot and polymer clay. The word of greeting looks terrific when embossed and you feel like you just have to touch it! If you have supplies out to make one card, it is easy to make a bunch of them all at once.


Further instructions and examples can be seen on the Simply Posh DVD
