East Coast Stamping with Mary Louise

Good day folks!  It's a sunny day here, hoping it takes away a bit of our snow.  Today's project is another card for my club gals showcasing our 2024-2026 In Color DSP!  Now you will see by the photos I've attached that our cards are all different!  I had them each pick which of the In Colors they wanted and that's what they worked with to create theirs.  I find this dsp offering doesn't get enough credit, what a sin because it is very pretty.

I realized I hadn't made any baby cards for awhile and then had to dig into previous years stamp set as I didn't have a current one that was suitable. So this is a book binding card, much like a regular card but a little extra design on the left hand side of the card which makes it unique. The card base is scored in two spots, one is obviously the center of the card, the other is for the book fold.  Using the second score line as a guide, I stamped my sentiment on the inside of my card using Memento.  Then...
