Scrappy Boy Stamps: Birthday Pin Up Girls and Cleopatra Cards

Creating cards is fun and easy using patterned papers and stencils. Scrappy Boy Stamps has coordinating papers and stencils with each stamp set. You can mix and match these papers and stencils with older stamp sets too! 

Today I am sharing two cards. The first card uses the latest release stamps and paper pack called Birthday Pin Up Girls and also using a previously released stencil called Birthday Celebration Layered Background Builder Stencil. The second card uses the latest release Cleopatra stamps, coordinating paper pack, and a previously release stamp (palm tree) from Little Buddy.
