Another Year

This month marks Practicing Creativity Design's one year in business! And what a fitting occasion for one of the new sets being released this month, Another Year.  Here's two samples, one featuring a shabby chic look (with antique embossing powder) and the other a clean and graphic design (with a vintage children's book image). 

Another year has come and gone, another tick mark etched in sand with a stick. As I get older, I am learning to appreciate each day and each birthday, for each day and each birthday brings something new-I only recently learned that sometimes I have to find it.

I love this set, and one stamp is just purely awesome in my opinion. It is a grid of the numbers 1-100 and is so versatile. You can customize your card to any age-any age! Here's a close-up of each card, featuring the number grid background. It was my intention to show you the versatility of this set, please let me know if I've accomplished that!

Please be sure to stop by Courtney's blog for an opportunity to win your very own set, and check out the blogs of Paulina and Dana as well! I'll be back tomorrow with a card featuring the second set being released this month.

Thank you for your visit and comments, I so very much appreciate each one!
