Artful Amaryllis

Friday, 15 November 2024

I have been playing a lot with the Artful Amaryllis Bundle in the Stampin' Up! Sep to Dec Mini Catalogue.  I remember trying to grow from the bulb I received at Christmas as a child - never did very well for me! Stamping it is much easier for me than growing one!

Caring Leaves

Sunday, 3 November 2024

Sometimes a stamp set hides away in the back of the catalogue and you miss seeing it!  That was the case with the Caring Leaves Stamp Set in the Stampin' Up! Sep to Dec Mini Catalogue!  I completely missed it until I started to see some amazing cards made by fellow demonstrators!
