One of my favorite stamp sets in this year’s Sale-A-Bration line up is the Designer Tee. When I saw the name I thought it would be something to do with t-shirts, not my thing. However, I was surprised and very pleased that I got this stamp set! It does coordinate with our new Custom Tee […]
Congratulations

Retro Way to Go!

As I said Monday, I was really productive this past weekend! After finishing my 8-5-16 SGGWW challenge card (if you missed it, see it here), I went back a week to look at the 7-29-16 challenge. Oh, oh…another great template but this time for the Swirly Scribbles thinlet dies I just got. A couple of […]
