NEW STAMPS ARE IN!!

Hello friends. I hope you all enjoyed your weekend.
Just stopping by to show you the new stamps that have come in at The Pixie Cottage!! The stamp club stamps have been mailed out, and the design team will soon have theirs, so be looking for some beautiful new creations.

First, we have a new Hannah Stamp by Sandra Hammer called Hannah's Letter. (Isn't she adorable??) In addition to the regular larger size stamp, we also have a Hannah's Letter Stamp set available with a smaller image stamp and two sentiments. I have had people ask about sets in the past so we at The Pixie Cottage are trying to offer a little something for everyone.

And, also just in is something new by ArTish
A special collection of birds.  The good news is you can purchase the whole set as uncut and unmounted (save a little money this way) or you can purchase them individually, with or without cling foam. If you buy them as a set it is like getting one free!  I am just in love with these stamps and can see the cardinal stamp being used for my Christmas cards!!

So tell me which is your favorite?
Have a wonderful night.
Michelle
