Sweet Pea Combo


Good evening, I hope you have all had a lovely Mother's Day. I have had a nice day although hubby is at work until 11pm. Ryan bought me some vouchers for some beauty treatments which I can't wait to use - what a treat, all my pennies usually go on crafty goodies so I can't wait to be pampered. I have been sat in my craft room this evening when I spotted this fab stamp I got last week from Crafts and Me . I fell in love with her as soon as I saw her and I have had to wait a few weeks for her to make her way over from America to Teresa and then to me but she was worth the wait. This image is another of the wonderful Sweet Pea Stamps illustrated by Ching- Chou Kuik from the Fantasy Art Collection and she is simply called It's my birthday. You can only purchase these beautiful stamps from Crafts & Me in the UK.
