I have often said and will say it again . . . a good sentiment stamp set (like So Sincere Stamp Set) will get “inked up” over and over. Stampin’ Up! So Sincere stamp set goes the distance for multiple occasions and promises chic fonts. A definite Must-Have!
WHAT I LOVE! Calypso Coral gives a personality punch to the gold patterned Shining Brightly Specialty Designer Series Paper (Back In Stock). The Calypso Coral leaves (Bough Punch) coordinate with the sweet “stripe” created when the designer paper is split and Calypso Coral card stock is exposed below.
