You Rock!

Happy Thursday! I thought I’d pop in and share another fun card from the July Release over at Paper Smooches. You can check it all out HERE ♥️!! 🙂

Today, I’m sharing a card using the new You Rock die. I kept this one VERY simple and in person, it’s allllll in the layers!

I just love layering up a good rainbow as it has a major impact in person, but it is tricky to photograph, I will say. 😉

Here’s a super close up:

Paper Smooches: You Rock die.

These and all the other new goodies are available over at Paper Smooches HERE!

I just love the fun simplicity of this die and Kim’s handwriting!! 🙂

All The Feels

Happy Thursday! Hopefully you have seen the new release from Paper Smooches. If not, you can check it all out HERE ♥️!! 🙂 It’s such a fun one!!! ❤

If you missed my post Blog Hop, check that out HERE and my other post with a card from the new release HERE.

Today, I’m sharing a card using the new Inhale Exhale sentiment set and Clouds Stencil! The sentiments in this set are so unique and Kim’s hand lettering just really puts them in their own stratosphere of delightful! 🙂

I also used the recently released Fab Frames Dies –these dies are getting a workout for some many cards!! ❤ I used a bunch of different inks to blend the ink onto the Cloud stencil, stamped the sentiment, stitched the frame and put it all together. I enjoy how it turned out! 🙂

You Are My Sunshine!

Happy Friday! Before the Paper Smooches (very fun!) July Release debuts next week, I wanted to share one more card that is one of my favorites of the June Paper Smooches release available HERE! 🙂

For this card, I used the new Sunnyville and Sunnyville icon dies! This little sun hugging this little cloud is just one of my faves of all time from Paper Smooches. It is soooo adorable! 🙂 Kim has such a great way of designing these little cutie stamps! 🙂

I mean really, could this be any sweeter? I colored them with Copic Markers and die cut them out, adhering with foam adhesive. (THIS is the foam tape I’ve been using a lot–very inexpensive!)

Paper Smooches: Sunnyille, Sunnyville Icon Dies, Flaunters. The rest of the new release is HERE!

As I mentioned, the new Paper Smooches July Release is next week! We are having our Design Team hop on July 6th–so be ready!! 🙂 Thanks for stopping by today!

Take care–Jill 🙂

Love Birds

Happy weekend! There is something NEW from Paper Smooches available now HERE! 🙂

Stencils!! There is the new Cloud Stencil and the new Flourishes Stencil! I have cards using them in the next release, but for now, I just whipped this one up HERE using the Cloud Stencil for fun and the Daily Marker 30 Day!

I hope you’ll enjoy the new stencils as much as I am!! So cool and easy to work with.

Tonight, I’m sharing a card using the new Vespa Die and Feathered Friends (with Feathered Friends Icon dies). Also, I used the Mirror Blocks for the mirror image of the cute bird! This Vespa–I want to create a bunch of colors of them and then ride them! If only! 🙂
