The Vellum Layering Designs is in the Spring Mini Catalog (pg 33), a set of pre-printed 12 x 12 vellum sheets that make a very interesting background for my panels.

Welcome to my Corner of the World

When the 2021 – 2022 Annual Catalog was released I was immediately attracted by the Elegantly Said Stamp set.
