CTMH December Specials

I was looking for witty sayings to welcome in December but, I got nothing! Maybe the closest thing was, December - Chapter 12 of 12. How about if I change that to -- Stamp of the Month, number #12?! Weak, I know. But here you go: Owl Love You Forever. You may purchase this stamp …

CTMH Created to Shine

Created to Shine is not just another "light bulb" stamp set. If you look closely, each bulb is different (aren't we all?!) and then, of course, the sentiments are great too!
