Twinchies

One of the exchanges with the Canadian Die Exchange group this month is twinchies.  I had never made twinchies before and did not even know what they were.  So, I googled it, and checked various twinchies on Pinterest, watched a few tutorials on You Tube, and finally got the idea.

Twinchies are cards that are 2 by 2".  There are 3 layers to a twinchie- a cardboard bottom layer, a cardstock layer, and an image layer.  Embellishments are encouraged - from buttons, sequins, ribbons, glitter, etc.

For this exchange, I had to make 6 to send to my partner.  I used all Stampin' Up materials, some of which may be retired.
