Herbal Treasures - NEW kit



Want something different? Herbal Treasures features Arti pods, Atta fruit, banana sticks, cassia vera, caladium, and several simply gorgeous flowers for your creative sessions. Each tag is decorated with a unique botanical accent. This kit is definitely a "scrap outside of the box" collection of several new and different items that you can interchange with other kits in your scrapbooking artist's toolbox. The word art is composed with the Marketing Script font and four letters from the the rose-adorned Romantique alphabet. And the double bows and intricately designed dragonfly are sure to add remarkable accents to your layouts. There's even a piece of pottery for you to plant some extra love in your memory keeper pages. As always, I wish you many, may hours of creative fun!
