I immediately said “yes” when I saw the possibilities and modern style of the Stampin’ Up! Wishes All Around Bundle. It’s a marvelous bundle for winter holidays but can span the year with wreaths for spring, fall and summer.
WHAT I LOVE! Basic Black and Very Vanilla exude sophistication and are a class act for this simple Christmas card. The Black & Very Vanilla 3/8” Large Check Ribbon literally wraps it all together with a lovely bow.
MY FAVORITE THINGS! The Wishes All Around Bundle from Stampin’ Up! made the list of My Favorite Things from the 2023 Holiday Catalog!
