The Whale Done Bundle by Stampin Up® is perfect to design a colorful and magical step card. There is a bit of fussy cutting needed to do this card but the end result is well worth the effort! The card image was made with a step card die that a friend of mine gave me but I have included instructions on how to make this card without a die. The cut sizes are for a step card made without the die. Hope you will try this one out! It was so much fun to do!
