Big Shot Sampler Book

I participated in a Big Shot Swap with robinsmail3 on SCS, send in 65 cuts and receive a sample cut from all of the dies that SU! sells. This was an awesome way to get a sample of each one. I decided to put all of them in a book to show my customers. Kristen Perry on SCS posted some sample pages and these were a major help in completing my book. I printed each page on Whisper White Cardstock and secured the negative and positve images of each die using SNAIL adheisve. I have them in order as they appear in the SU! catalog with the exception of the Manhattan Flower Textured Impressions and the Textured Plates which I wanted in the front.
Here is what I came up with. I hope you like it.

Let me now what you think.

Thanks for stopping by and have a creative day!
