Today is release day over at Concord and 9th! It’s always a favourite day of the month for me with tons of exciting and inspirational products! The entire release is available here and I have six cards for inspiration on what to do with the new stamps and dies! My first card is a beautiful housewarming card using the Floral Print Silhouette Bundle – I adore how easy it was to line everything up and that house is just too cute with that door opening up to reveal the background.
