Celebrate National Scrapbooking Month with Blue Skies!

We are celebrating National Scrapbooking Month with the beautiful Blue Skies collection, featuring a double-size paper packet with lots of fantastic coordinating products, such as stickers, stamp sets, Thin Cuts, and more! 

Blue Skies Collection

The sensational Blue Skies collection may just be our best National Scrapbooking Month offering ever! Start with the incredible Blue Skies Paper collection, which features 12 double-sided paper sheets—twice the number of designs in our other paper collections. Accent your papercrafts with coordinating stickers and cardstocks—both featuring eye-popping UV-coated designs—as well as two coordinating stamp sets and a dimensional Pinwheel Thin Cuts die!
