Card Positioning Systems Challenge
Hello, stampers.
I just wanted to give you a heads-up about a challenge we are sponsoring over on the Card Positioning Systems blog. CPS has a great design team and lots of fun sketch challenges sponsored by companies in the industry. We are proud to be this week’s sponsor.
