June Release Countdown Teasers Day 1: Introducing Fairground Friends

The June release countdown teasers start today and we are over the moon that Kitty Day, Francine Vuillème and Keeway Tsao are all once again guest designing for us this month.

In addition to the lovely aforementioned ladies, we also have an absolute superstar joining us this month.  We still can't believe that the incredible Alberto Gava has agreed to lend us his talents and we couldn't be more excited to see him bring our images to life with his sensational colouring!

There are eight new stamp sets coming on the 5th of June and today we're introducing a stamp set called Fairground Friends.
