Paper Smooches / July Release Blog Hop

You Rock2

Hello!  
I am excited to share a sampling of the NEW Paper Smooches JULY 2019 release with you!  THREE new stamp sets, THREE new dies and TWO NEW stencils will be available to purchase at 10:00 AM Central time zone on July 7th.  Once they go live, you will find the new products here: www.papersmoochesstamps.com.

Paper Smooches


I've used the new Star stencil to create my background using lots of coordinating Distress Inks and blending brushes.  With a little bit of masking, creating this background was simple!  You could easily make this a feminine card by switching out the colors of ink.  For the sentiment, I blended some Chipped Sapphire Distress Ink over a panel of white cardstock and then die cut the You Rock Die.  The die was die cut 3 more times out of white and they were all layered for dimension.

You Rock

**************************

My second card, I went clean and simple.  
Using the Health Dies, I die cut the band aid pieces out of turquoise cardstock and then layered 3 red hearts on top for dimension.  I stamped the sentiment from Inhale Exhale in bold black ink.  

You got this

After measuring out the sentiment and the band aid, I scored an area with my Scor-Pal and between two of the lines, I used my paper piercer.  You remember this tool?  
It was fun to use again!

You got this2
