What's Old is New Again Tuesday - Gathering Moments

 I am starting a new post series, "What's Old is New Again Tuesday." It occurred to me that I have so many stamp sets, dies and even cardstock, that taking a trip down memory lane is something that everyone can appreciate. So I plan to use older stamp sets, dies and whatever else that I have to share a card that I create that you can CASE. I hope that you like this series and will want to dig out that older set.

Here is today's card:


Project Recipe:

STAMP SET: Gathering Moments (September 2025 Online Exclusive)

INK: Blackberry Bliss

PAPER: Peach Pie Base, Cajun Craze Layer, Autumn Opulence Layer, White I/S, Beige Tag

ACCESSORIES: Labeled w/Love Punch, Embordered Ribbon, Dimensionals, Magical Meadow Dies, White Pearls of Beauty

Tell me what you think, I think that this card turned out just perfect!

Thanks for stopping in,

Take Care

Cindy
