Morning... There is no CAS Monday with LOTV today but there is a fantastic reason for this... Today we are holding a Lili of the Valley design team blog hop to celebrate the launch of their gorgeous Pretty Vintage stamps!!!  As always there will be a hidden prize somewhere along the way …and this time that prize is HUGE …it’s a full set of the new stamps worth £325!!
There are 26 new clear stamp sets and it’s a fabulous mix of backgrounds, sentiments, quotes, tags and more... They keep up perfectly with the current trend for all things vintage and grungy whilst still retaining a bit of the feminine charm that you’ve come to expect from Lili of the Valley! The stamps will be available to buy on the website from midnight (12am) on Wednesday 12th June (UK time).
