Winter is just beginning and I’m sharing the new online exclusive Garden Meadow bundle with the gorgeous Meandering Meadows designer series paper. This paper is so pretty that making quick & simple cards are very easy to do. The Garden Meadows also has a really cool curved die that you’ll using for all type of cards.
I hope you enjoyed this introduction to the Garden Meadow set and consider adding it to your Christmas list must haves. It is now available. If you would like to order, please click on my “shop” link on the top right hand side just above the Host Code on my blog. Happy Stamping!
