Stampendous January Sneak Peeks!

Christmas is behind us, and we all had a relaxing day but for me, it's time to get into the new year spirit, and that means NEW cool products from Stampendous.

Stampendous has a fantastic new release coming up soon, keep an eye out for them in the What's New section of their website, but since we can't wait for them to release we have some fun sneak peeks until they do.

So some exciting new backgrounds are heading to stores near you! My Fresh Peony card uses this beautiful collage stamp called Blossom Scroll and it's scrumptious! Stampendous also offers a clear acrylic stamp handle that's just the right size for these new 6-inch square stamps.

Here is a few sneak peeks you'll want to stop by and see this week and make sure to stop by the Stampendous blog each.
