The first time I saw The Impossible Card a few years ago, I was scratching my head to figure out how it was made. It wasn't until my friend Mary Ellen Stites demonstrated it at our virtual team meeting last month that I finally got it figured out! And it's not as hard as it looks!
In fact, I can't stop making them! The first one I made was this Way to Goat card as I followed along with Mary Ellen during the meeting.
Then, I turned to my favorite DSP: Whale of a Time. Unfortunately, it's already sold out in North America, so I hope you stocked up! I'm so glad that the Whale Done Bundle is carrying over!
I have shared this card for Kylie Bertucci's April International Highlights. Check out the other cards here and cast a vote for your favorites (hopefully including mine)!
