Concord and 9th Joins SFL





Thanks for joining us today! The wonderful company of Concord and 9th is joining the Scrapping for Less family this month. Concord and 9th is a relatively new company on the horizon (or at least new to us!) We couldn’t be happier to offer their fabulous stamps and dies for you. Join in and hop along and see the fabulous projects the Design Team has created for you today. You can view the Concord and 9th items here and be sure to check out the blog post from Tuesday with some insight to the Concord and 9th family and company.

Well hello crafty people! 

I hope you are doing well today and may I say Happy Friday! So here is my card I made with Being Classy stamp & die. I LOVE this set and I really like that the stamp set is great for the sentiment on the front of your card and on the inside of your card as well. This card came together so easily and I had a great time making it. I can't wait to use all the other words as well!!! If you would like one to call your very own you can find it here! 

Thanks for hopping by!  





Here's the lineup:
