#10 (and 11, 12...) - A Little Extra Inspiration
Sometimes we create fun cards that are so simple, they don't really require any tutorial, but are still fun to share. We put these in our "Card Inspiration Album". For this reason, we decided to give them only 1 number and call them our #10 in this countdown, even though it's really 10, 11, 12....
