Stampin’ Up!’s new Perennial Postage stamp set is sure to be a winner! It has 10 versatile sentiments, most with mixed fonts to make them pretty enough to use on most any style card. You KNOW you’ll be seeing lots of card samples using them!

This stamp set, on page 25 of the upcoming January-April 2024 Mini Catalog, is actually part of a bundle which includes a coordinating die set. These dies are sized to be used with the sentiments, of course, and are edged with that classic postage stamp style. No need for plain edges anymore, and they also make for great mats to add a pop to your cards. We’ll be talking about these dies more in upcoming posts.

Also used on this card is the Forever Forest stamp set. This stamp set is featured in the outgoing September-December 2023 Mini Catalog but will be available for purchase in the Online Exclusives section of my online store at least through the end of 2024. I love this set for its versatility – it’s not just for winter!

I’ll be using the Perennial Postage bundle in my upcoming classes. For info about my upcoming in-person and virtual classes, check out my class descriptions here and my calendar here. I hope to see you at a class sometime soon, but you can always find ideas here on my blog as well as on Facebook and Instagram.
