TRIMMING THE TOWN SUITE

Now is a great time to make something adorable and make a difference! The Coming Home stamp set (#153500) is part of the popular Trimming The Town suite and is the August-December 2020 Mini Catalogue Making a Difference stamp set.

When you purchase the Coming Home stamp set you'll be a part of supporting adoption, foster care, and infertility charities.

Personally, I love how the Home Together Dies coordinate with both the stamps and the Trimming the Town Designer Series Paper (#153491). It makes is simple and fast to create layered scenes on card and decor projects.

I think you'll love this whole suite!

TIPS: You can make the house treat box longer to fit bigger candies or gifts. Keep the 1-1/4" width the same and increase the 2-1/2" length to your preferred size. The score lines measurements will remain the same at 1/8" along the long sides and 3/4" along the 1-1/4" sides.
