Spring Garden WindowRama Calendar

Stampendous' new WindowRama Kits are so fabulously versatile. I love that the kits can be used alone or in combination with the WindowRama Die Set.

Here's my 2020 WindowRama calendar which uses the wonderful new Cling Spring Garden Rubber Stamp with the Circle Chipboard WindowRama Kit.
