Welcome to the Festival of Trees Stamp Review Blog Hop.
We are a group of international Stampin' Up! demonstrators that
showcase a different stamp set every 1st and 3rd Monday of the month.
One stamp set ... so many ideas!
It's been a while since I joined in with the crew as I don't buy a lot of Christmas stamps but the Festival of Trees set is in the annual catalogue and I had it in my stash from last year. Bonus! I'm really looking forward to hopping along this round to see the variety of ideas for such a cute holiday stamp set.

I only have one card to share with you today as it's that crazy time of the year and the weather has been incredibly HOT. I made a flying easel card for a good friend who recently invited a few of us around for Christmas celebrations at her place. I popped in a Village Cinemas Gift Card inside the vellum envelope (not pictured) so we could meet up over the summer for a Girl's Night Out.
