Handmade Affirmation Cards and Folded Boxes with Karen Elaine
Join us for another livestream session as Karen Elaine combines two of her greatest loves - origami and watercolor! Watch as Karen Elaine folds origami envelopes with a belly band as well as tato pop-up envelopes. Inside, they hold watercolor cards with thoughtful affirmations. This is a signature Karen Elaine project that you'll love recreating at home!
