40+ Card Ideas From BackStage!

Hello card makers! As a fellow creative, I imagine you love seeing card making inspiration, and sometimes it’s extra fun to see ideas from a variety of crafters. We all have different skills and creative talents, and inspiration from one crafter might inspire you more than another. Today I’ll be sharing over 40 card ideas with you. The cards shown below are those I received last month at the Stampin Up BackStage leaders conference. It was a wonderful chance to get away to New Orleans for a few days, spend time with other demonstrators from across the world, and be inspired! 

One of the many fun things about demonstrator events is swapping cards. I created 40 of the same card design beforehand, and I swapped with others while I was there. Here are their creations!
