This is the card we made at my table at Stamp Camp North on August 13.  What a wonderful peaceful card.  Many thanks to Amanda Bates (http://thecraftspa.blogspot.com/2016/07/wetlands-serene-scenery.html) for this great design!

Instructions:

1. Score Crumb Cake card stock at 4-1/4"; fold away from score line to create card.

That's it!  Sweet, simple, and serene!!!!
