This year’s Annual Catalog has been full of surprises for me.
Nautical or fish stamp sets don’t usually “do” much for me.
This year’s Seaside Shore stamp set and coordinating designer paper, By the Shore
is a great surprise. I love the color combination. The designer paper prints are great and those fish, seashells and coral and just adorable.
Check out this card we made at the Summer Pool Party.
