This is another Waves of Inspiration bundle project that I created! This time, I used the Brushstroke 12 x 12 Specialty Paper from the new 2022-23 Annual Catalog!

The Happiness Abounds bundle is still one of my faves from the new 2022-23 Annual Catalog! It is part of the Hues of Happiness Suite (pages 108 & 109). I’ve paired my favorite bundle with my favorite new dies from the Annual Catalog – The Stylish Shapes Dies! This new set has stitched circles and …
