As so many people around the world have been affected one way or another by today's health concerns, I would like to send my heartfelt appreciation to everyone doing their part! Doesn't matter if it's a big part or a small part, we are ll in this together! For every Perfect Peony stamp set you purchase this weekend I will be adding another set to your package for FREE! Perhaps you have a krafty friend who is out of work right now or maybe you know someone who is struggling with isolation. This set is a friendship set and I'd love for you to give it away to someone of your choosing to Share the Krafty Kindness! This promotion will run until Sunday night while supplies last.
