I had so much fun playing with the stamps from Creative Stamping Issue 150! For this project, I wanted to do something a little different and create shaped cards using just the stamps and some simple basic shapes. The result? Five playful designs that are easy to recreate and perfect for so many occasions.

Why I Love These Cards
Shaped cards are a great way to stretch your supplies and think outside the box. You don’t need fancy dies to make them — just basic shaped dies, scissors, or a cutting machine, plus the gorgeous stamp set from the magazine.
