Stamp Review Crew -- Colorful Seasons
06/05/2017
Hello! Welcome to the Stamp Review Crew Blog Hop featuring the Colorful Seasons stamp set. Thanks so much for stopping by!
The Stamp Review Crew is an international group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators who gather for a blog hop the first and third Mondays of the month to review a single stamp set. The number of participants varies from hop to hop, but the ideas are plentiful as we take a stamp set through its paces. By the time you've traveled through the hop, you are sure to find a number of innovative ways to use the featured stamp set. So sit back, relax, and get ready to start pinning ideas to your Pinterest board!

If you've already joined the hop and are traveling forward, you've arrived from Dawn Tidd's blog where you were presented with an amazing project to inspire your creativity. If you're traveling backwards through the hop, you've seen Karen Gooch's project and are ready to CASE! (Copy And Share Everything)

Love these beautiful cards. I love the unique design of the first card. The copper embossing on the leaves and the silver foil paper for the snowflakes really make pretty cards. Now I'm beginning to get the urge to start my Christmas cards. Have a great week.
