Welcome to the next stop on the Paper Pretties Grand Re-Opening and New Release Blog Hop!! If you’re arriving from Mercy Kerin's blog, you’re in the right place! If you are just joining us on our HUGE PARTY TRAIN, you can head back to the Paper Pretties Blog to start from the beginning. Check out all the information in the blog post too, there are PRIZES galore and different GIFTS WITH PURCHASE, you don’t want to miss out!

You’ve likely heard by now, but Paper Pretties is releasing TWELVE brand new sets today, along with the big Prettie Boutique Re-Opening. All of the new sets will be available for purchase in the Prettie Boutique beginning no later than 7 AM CST today. I am showcasing the set Dog-Gone Birthday.

For my card today I used the main image, this adorable doggie, from the Dog-Gone Birthday set. This set is one of 7 stamp sets being released this month from our newest Illustrator to the Paper Pretties team, the fabulous Victoria Case! I was thrilled when I heard that she would be joining the team, and this set just proves how wonderful she is! The best thing about these new stamp sets is that each set comes with so much! Dog-Gone Birthday doesn't only include this main image, but also comes with two different sized dog bones, a matching paw print and three sentiments! You really get a lot for what you pay for, and these clear stamps are high quality, and they have the smell to prove it! I think you know what I am talking about, that unique aroma that comes off of these stamp sets tell you all you need to know! In fact I didn't have to even season these stamps when they arrived, I just put my stamps right on my block and pulled out my Memento Tuxedo Black Ink Pad the image was so crisp and so clean immediately!Now on to the details on my card! I wanted to work with this weeks Mojo Monday Challenge if I got the chance, and decided that today's card would be the perfect chance to do just that! I colored in my main image with my Copic markers and pulled out my Cosmo Cricket Designer Paper Pad called Garden Variety Mini Deck that I picked up from the Paper Pretties Store to match! I also used this lovely ribbon that Michele gave me earlier this week, it was part of my early birthday present and it is lovely! I pulled out my eyelet border punch and some red metallic dots to match and tie the whole look together!

It’s our party, but the PRESENTS are for you!! Leave a comment right here on this post to enter to win this fabulous stamp set!! I will take comments until Sunday, August 15th at 6 PM CST, and then one Prettie Lucky stamper will be chosen at random to receive this set!! Can’t get a better deal than that! And you can shop now without fear, if you happen to win a set you already purchased (you know you can’t resist these amazing new images!), you may substitute a different set of equal or lesser value in its place.
