Hi Stamping Friends!
It's so good to be back! I've been feeling a bit under the weather for a few days, and it all started right before I finished blogging for Project Sheet Friday! So, we are going to make it a Project Sheet Monday, since we are running out of time for Christmas cards! Today's projects are Christmas cards in a pretty, neutral Soft Suede color.
Speaking of running out of time…there is just enough time to order a Too Cool Stamping Gift Certificate!
Ask Santa For A Gift Certificate—Is Stampin' Up! on your Christmas Wish List? Let your family & friends know that I offer Too Cool Stamping Gift Certificates in any denomination, good for use on Stampin' Up! products and my Too Cool Stamping classes! I'll even send it with a hand-made gift card holder! Gift-giving couldn't be any easier for the stamping enthusiast! Have them contact me today!
