As Forever Friends would like to see a card that I made in my early crafting days, I am showing you my first card with a stamped image (digi stamp) I have made at the beginning of last year. I know, it's not that old yet, but that's when I started stamping... I didn't have any dies back then, so everything is hand-cut!
