Aloha, all! Last time, I wrote about using stamp sets outside of the Stampin’ Up! catalog. I do this when I find the “perfect stamp set” someone else.

Handmade Greeting Card
A Bit of Encouragement!
Aloha, all! I have a friend who has been going through a rough patch of life the past couple of weeks.
