Today I'm sharing a project using the NEW Happy Travels stamp set. I loooooooove how this card turned out!! I wasn't sure at first, but this card is so fun and actually inspired by a photo I took on our trip to Paris in November last year. 

I used some older Crate Paper papers along with my favorite Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko inks, as well as a NEW PS die and the PS Speech Bubbles dies. Glue, staple, stamp, sew, and attach dies... EASY! 

Be sure to stop by the PS blog for details about this blog hop and giveaway! And don't forget to leave some love on the DT's blogs:) I can't wait for you to get your NEW May stamps/dies! LOVE LOVE LOVE!

That's it for me today- THANK YOU so much for stopping by! Be blessed!

Paper Smooches: April challenge #3

Hello, friends:)

Each week I write the "Sunday Recap" over on the PS blog (click HERE). Today I'm sharing these two cards for the April challenge, black and white with a pop of color. Play along HERE
I think I might have added a bit more color than needed or wanted, but I still love these cards! They are simple and so fun--- perfect for anyone celebrating a birthday. **Annnnnnnnd I think I might use this design for a card using one of May's new releases! Check back soon for that card! 



I also wanted to let you know that I will be having a giveaway with my Virtual Smooches 3rd anniversary video (sometime in May). I want to answer your questions! So ask anything HERE! I will pick one winner from these questions. **Winner will be picked after the video goes live and will be contacted via email. 

That's it for me today:) THANKS so much for stopping by! Be blessed!

Paper Smooches challenge- April 2016

Hello, friends:}

Today we start a NEW Paper Smooches monthly challenge. The challenge for April is...... BLACK/WHITE with a POP OF COLOR! **A pop of color means "just a pop" or "hint" of color!   

This is truly a challenge for me!! You know me----> I love love love patterned papers and color! This was my first try at black/white with a pop of color.... not bad! Simple and perfect for just about anyone's birthday (esp my SIL Candice)! I used the PS Happy Birthday Words and Balloons dies. And I added the balloon string from the Hullabaloo stamp set. Easy as 1, 2, 3! Hey--- this might fit under the Trav's Card Style challenges (it was die cut, stamp, and done ðŸ˜œ). The painted ballon was created using the Illustrated Faith pink paint. LOVE ❤️
That's it for me today! I hope you will join in the fun--- you could win a $50 gift certificate to the PS store!!! Be sure to stop by HERE to link up and to play along! 

THANKS so much for stopping by! Be blessed:}
