TLC Designs Dragon Baby Interactive Card with the See You In the Center Interactive Die Set

Welcome to Cards by Kendra!  Today, I'm super excited to share my first project as a Design Team member for TLC Designs! I am part of the YouTube & Instagram team, so my creations will be posted on the TLC Designs YouTube channel and Instagram accounts.   My project today features the Dragon Baby Greetings Digital Stamp set .  This little baby dragon is just too adorable!  I wanted to use the See You In the Center die set to make the baby dragon look like he's peeking out of his shell.  Instead of using the frame dies in this set, I decided to use the largest stitched circle from the Aztec Sunshine Die set .  I also used the Perfectly Precious paper pad  and the Action Stamps .   For instructions on how I made this card, watch the YouTube video posted on the TLC Designs YouTube Channel.     Here's a little clip to see the card in action: The first time I made this card, I glued two pieces of this heavyweight cardstock toge...
