Next Stampin' Up! Class - 9 July 2011

Hi all,

Another great class with the ladies today, playing with the Big Shot and the lovely Fun Flowers Bigz L Die, exclusive to Stampin' Up! These cards were inspired by a few cards online.

These cards were made today which we found were very quick and easy to make as the die makes it a quick way to layer and make an effective flower:

Card One



On the ladies cards, they clear embossed their sentiment which made it more effective and stood out from the patterned background paper.
