Two-fer Thursday...

 Today I have a two-fer for you.  

Unfortunately, I had to cancel my Facebook Live last night so I did not have a card post for you yesterday....so today you get a two-fer!

Here is card number one featuring the GORGEOUS Night of Flight stamp set. This is a host-only set.  If you would like information on how you can get this beauty please contact me. 

Here is a close-up of the stamp set. This is a two-step stamp, meaning it has outline images as well as fill-in images to color it:
