Saying good bye to Counting Sheep!

It is so hard to believe that we are almost at the end of September and another Sale-a-Bration event!  One of my favourite stamp sets from Sale-a-Bration is Counting Sheep and the fact that there are coordinating dies to go with it make it even better.  You can still get your hands on the stamp set, dies or both until September 30th.  They are available with a $60 CDN order or $120 CDN order if you want both!  Don't miss out as they may disappear before September 30th due to their popularity!

I shared this card on a recent Facebook Live Sketch Challenge that I did.  I love how it turned out!
