Hydranga.1

Is this a gorgeous flower or what?  Hydrangeas are so pretty, I always admire them.  I know they can turn different colors depending on the contents of the soil.  But when you use a hydrangea stamp you can make it whatever color you like!!  Today I made mine purple, Rich Razzleberry to be exact.  And I do think I’ve seen real purple hydrangeas.

This stamp is one of four in a very special stamp set recently released by Stampin’ Up!  You may recall that it’s Stampin’ Up!’s 25th anniversary, and they are doing lots of special things for their big year.  One thing they are doing is issuing a special stamp set each month.  The stamps in each set will be stamps from years past, but one stamp will be a brand new release.  This month’s set is called Best of Flowers, and this pretty hydrangea is from that set.  So pretty!

Best of Flowers

If you are a collector, this is your year.  These special 25th Anniversary stamp sets are collectible and I want to be sure you have all the SCOOP:
  • All Best of stamp sets will include 3-5 images, including a never-before seen image, and will be priced at $14.95
  • While we are releasing just one Best of stamp set per month (with a new theme each month), all of the Best of sets will be available until March 31, 2014.
  • All Best of stamp sets are available in Clear-Mount only.

PLUS you’ll have a chance to earn FREE stamps too!

Each “Best of” stamp set you buy will come with a 25-year proof of purchase sticker. Adhere it to your collectors card, which will begin shipping with the February set. For every six Best of sets you buy, you can send in your collectors card for a FREE set of your choice valued up to $14.95! Buy all 12 sets and get 2 FREE stamp sets!

Aren’t they pretty?  You’ll be seeing the other three stamps in this set on this blog in the near future.  I already have a card in mind for one of them 🙂
