Dear Stampers, What a wonderful time of the year... Christmas cards, gift card holders, candy bar favors, candle wrappers, stamped picture frames, ornaments, wrapping, tags, even cookies – ALL STAMPED! How marvelous – such room for creativity (and outright stealing of ideas, ha ha!)  It’s so fun to make special cards and gifts and bring a BIG smile to the faces of friends and loved ones.  And how many times have you heard “I keep ALL your beautiful, handmade cards”? Don’t you LOVE that? Makes it so much more fun to be making them!

Hope your Holidays are jolly, your stockings full, and that you KNOW the Real Reason for the Season!
