Clean simple card – Peace to You
Here’s a clean simple card using Peace to You for those last minute cards. This Friday will be the last episode in my 12 week Christmas Countdown series for 2022.

Birthday card hinge stamp technique- Nuts about squirrels
In this Sunday’s blogpost, I thought I’d share a birthday card made with Nuts about Squirrels stamp set which I recently acquired.
