I’ve got some BIG NEWS I want to share with all of you! As you know, if you’ve been following my blog for very long, I have been doing stamping retreats for the past 12 years. You can see what they’re like by clicking here. My sister Peggy and I will continue to hold our annual Stampin’ Sister’s Retreat every March, but I’m taking things one step further….
For Dave and I, cruising is one of our favorite vacations, and you know how I love hosting paper crafting retreats, so why not combine them together! I am hosting a new type of retreat in January 2019 on board Royal Caribbeans’s Rhapsody of the Seas. This retreat will be spectacular and I hope you’ll consider joining us. I’ll have all the details to share with you tomorrow.
For now, I’d like to share this pretty card featuring the Petal Palette stamp set and the coordinating Petal Passion Designer Series Paper and the Petal Passion Embellishments.
