I took my small envelope stamp from Heffy Doodle's "Yappy Happy Mail" stamp set and stamped a couple along the bottom using Memento Tuxedo Black ink, I created masks for the envelopes using some post it tape.

Happy New Home Card Using Lawn Fawn's "Happy Village" Stamp Set!

Hey lovelies!This week I'm sharing a new home card, you never know when someone you care for will move home, it's always handy to have a card to welcome them in to their new space! I thought Lawn Fawn's "Happy Village" stamp set would be perfect for this occasion!

Once they were completely dry I die cut two polaroid frames using...

Sending big hugs (and flowers!)

Hello there, it is Verity here from Pretty Little Button for the Bumbleberry Design team. I hope your new year is off to a good start.

I have gotten the stamp set out several times and my craft mojo was lacking and have never made anything with it. But I had some crafty success on Saturday and I love how it turned out, as though I am sending some a bunch of flowers in the post to go with the...
