Mandarin Pixie\Little Bean Embroidery. Mandarin Pixie is no longer in business, but our wonderful Design Team member, Erin, was generous enough to supply us with their products this month!
Mandarin Pixie specialized in unique rubber stamps for all occasions. The Design Team received a handful of different stamps to create with for the month of August.
Although Mandarin Pixie is no longer in business, the owner now has a new site called Little Bean Embroidery, specializing in personalized and adorable baby items! Please take a moment to visit the site!
