Everyday I am going to post a new card sample utilizing stamp sets and accessories that will no longer be available after May 30. Some will be my own cards and some will be cards that I have received from other demonstrators. I will do my best to credit those cards that are not mine. Here is a card made by Chris Smith. I love the simplicity and the color combo – even though I am not much of a pink girl!

We had a fun night stampin’ it away and I just had to show you all what one of my customers – Julie – created this evening. She was looking through all of my convention trades and found the one on the left that she really liked. I do not own the scallop oval Bigz Die so we worked together and came up with the card on the right using the new Framelits, Labels Collection.
