This is my first time to use a HH stamp, and I just love this snow lady!! I placed my first HH order about a month ago, and because they had lots of orders, it took a bit longer than usual to arrive. As a thank you for my patience, they sent me several freebies! I am so thrilled with High Hopes! I would have been pleased with just one free stamp! This is a HH challenge, we were to make a non traditionally colored Christmas card. More babble here:
