Final Parade of Ten Handmade Cards from the Discontinued List!

Enjoy this final parade of ten handmade cards from the discontinued list:

This shabby chic bird was created with the Elegant Bird Bigz Die.

I made this card by attaching scraps of Designer Series Papers to the card stock before running it through the Big Shot. I left some of the edges loose and frayed.

Elements of Style

I received this lovely card in a swap so I don’t know who to credit it to, but notice how bleach was used to create this look.

Kindness Matters

This is an interesting use of the Designer Frames Framelits.

Forever Young

This was stamped in black directly on the Designer Series Paper. I love the little heart placed on the tree.

Raining Flowers

Another swap card with a pretty arrangement of the flowers.

Both the Blossoms Petals Builder Punch and the Build a Blossom stamp set used on this card are being discontinued.

Need for Speed

This is a great set for masculine cards with the car, a boat, airplanes, and a three wheeler.

Cherish Friendship

Can you see that some of the cherries are accented with basic rhinestones that have been colored with a permanent red marker. Shiny cherries!

Daring Adventure

I love these words! Think about who you would make a card for using this.

Button Buddies

Instead of adding buttons for the cherries, this card uses red circles punched out, shaded on the outside, and then accents with the white gel pen.

So this is it! My last post on retiring stamp sets!In my weekly newsletter coming out later today I am sharing my top seven favorite retiring stamp sets with a card sample for each!
