Concord & 9th-Feature Friday

January 21, 2022

Hi there! Today I am joining Concord & 9th to feature more of their January release. This first card holds a VERY special place in my heart because french fries are probably my most favorite thing in the entire world and so are rainbows. I combined rainbows and french fries from the Love You More stamp & die set, and somehow I think I might explode!

Concord & 9th-Love You More Than Bundle

This next card card uses the Tweethearts Turnabout stamp.

Concord & 9th-Tweethearts Turnabout

I created two of these cards with reverse colors. Both use the Lovebirds stamp & die set for the sentiment with strips of cardstock along with gold cardstock for some graphic interest.

This last card uses the Up & Away stamp & die set. I couldn’t resist some rainbow hot air balloons with a gold ‘hey’ for the sentiment.
