Today I am thrilled to be taking part in the Ink & Share blog hop again. You will have either arrived from Ginger Rabesa’s post or starting here ~ either way WELCOME . This month’s theme is Holiday Catalog Preview ~YES……………… the new Holiday Catalog is due to be released on September 5th, and I have to say you are going to be blown away with this one!

After I completed the calendar many of my ladies admired it – so later this year we will be doing a class to make the calendar for 2019. Continue reading

This card also uses a couple of products from my stash that get overlooked, the Starburst Punch and the Wood Texture DSP Stack.
