Unfortunately the pictures don't really show the difference the dryer sheet makes. The effect is amazing. Make one. I promise you won't regret.

DeleteNow THIS is cool!! So creative and a great use for old dryer sheets!
ReplyDeleteI like recycling, and using things I have at home. When I learned this technique, I fell in love with it. The more used the dryer sheets are, the better the effect on the card.
