Now you might think that because I'm on a Sketch challenge team that this is easy for me … you'd be wrong! But today I was easily inspired by this one:
I have had NBUS in my stash for so long that it's now discontinued - do NOT let that happen to you! But, seriously? This set from The Stamp Market is too pretty to let a little thing like extinction get in the way!
That little Gingko embossing folder is here as a reminder to use it again soon!
