I took a couple years’ break from making cards after my mom passed. Tim Holtz and Simon Says Stamp brought me back and I am so happy to be rediscovering one of my favorite hobbies after all this time. You truly have the best and most complete website for all my crafting needs and I am thankful to have you and your products back in my life. Thank you!
The flower dies are so pretty. I love the details…
