It's a WORLD OF WONDER!!

It's time for a Rubber Rerelease!!

As you know, Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps has been going strong for 8.5 years and we have produced hundreds of amazing stamp sets but we can't keep them all in stock forever!  So sometimes we have to retire them....but once in a while, it's super fun to bring back an older stamp set in red rubber!!

We are SO excited to be bringing back the adorable
WORLD OF WONDER
stamp set by artist Emilie Goulet!


These sweet girls are busy having an adventure and discovering nature in our amazing world!  Imagine the wonderful card creations, tags, bookmarks, scrapbook pages and more that you'll create with this fabulous set!




World of Wonder includes three main images, plus a couple of accessory stamps and SEVEN sentiments!  And this set comes in high quality unmounted PRETRIMMED natural red rubber for beautiful crisp images! You can use these stamps with double sided tape and an acrylic block OR we also carry EZmount foam sheets if you prefer to mount your rubber with that little bit of extra cushion!

And since you'll already be shopping, don't forget about the FRUGAL FRIDAY SPECIALS that are up in the shop also!  A selection of FOUR of our fabulous clear stamp sets are 40% OFF but only for the weekend!  Hop on over to check out if any of them are on your wishlist!

Happy stampin'!!
