We are down to the last weekend before the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog & the January-April 2023 Mini Catalog retire (May 1st) and the 2023-2024 Annual Catalog goes live. Two fun & fabulous retiring products that are still available are the January-April 2023 Mini Catalog Best Day stamp set & the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog Butterfly Kisses Designer Series Paper. I hadn’t realized how neglected the Butterfly Kisses Designer Series Paper was this year until I was separating out all of my retiring product and realized that I had only used like one sheet. So I decided to show it and the super versatile birthday stamp set (love these sentiments) Best Day during my Facebook Live. I created four quick & lovely cards using these two retiring products and you can watch my Facebook Live replay of these projects on my Facebook page here or on my YouTube channel below.
