Hello Crafty Friends! Wow- it's already September, can you believe it? Where do the months go so fast? I hope your week and month are off to a great start! :)
Stop by to take a look at September's lovely New Releases at ODBD!
There are lots of New products but I've chosen to go with the Cat and Dog Custom Dies Set. We all have Pets and it's always going to be quite difficult when we lose our furry loved ones, so it's nice to see Custom Dies and a set like the "Never Forgotten" Stamp set dedicated for this type of need. Here are my 2 samples. The First is Kitty themed...
