So many great stamps retiring, but today I want to share with you my top 3 favorite stamps. 1.

The dictionary is from the Sweet Laughter stamp set from …
Blended Bloom Birthday
Blended Bloom is a beautiful flower stamp – combine that with the Bordering Blooms set and it adds another dimension of beauty. Don’t you think? I love how this card turned out. This is the card I gave my daughter for her birthday back in November which I had promised to post. The card opens up with an attached book mark she can tear and …

I love the 5 sentiments that go with it and the …
