BIGGEST WISH FOR NIFTY CARDS THAT ARE EASY TO CREATE!

 Hi Stampers!

Stampin’ Up!®️ offers cardmakers so many wonderful images to create fantastic cards, but what would those cards be without great greetings? Of course, Stampin’ Up! has you covered there too! There are 16 stamp sets in the new annual catalog that include only greetings / sentiments! One of the greetings sets  that caught my eye first thing was the BIGGEST WISH stamp set. The greetings are big, but not too big. Size-wise I would categorize them as medium. I like the fact each word is offered in print and script. Here is a look at the stamp set.

BIGGEST WISH

Here is a look at some cards I made using the BIGGEST WISH stamp set:

COUNT ON ME

Isn’t the COUNT ON ME stamp set adorable? It is a great set to use with the Reverse Stamping Technique, because the images are line drawings. Watch for more cards I create using this stamp set!

Here is another look at all six cards.

As you can see, the BIGGEST WISH stamp set is a very versatile set! It truly is a  must have greetings set!

That’s it for today! Thank you so much for stopping by. Until next time...

Stamp Happy!
