Paper Makeup Stamps Fun!

2011-12-15T07:00:00.002-05:00

Today I have a fun little project I worked on last weekend to share. My mom hosted a cookie swap so I made all sorts of cookies and I wanted my packaging to be top notch so I decorated the fun little bags using the Color It Winter Tags set from Paper Makeup Stamps! I had a lot of fun trying to decide which stamp to use, in the end after I picked which bag I would use the rest was simple! This adorable snowman and tag stamp were just perfect. I also used the stamp "Happy Holidays" from the Season's Greetings Holiday Sentiment Set. The bag was closed with some silver ribbon that I curled and the tag I think finished it all off.

Thank you so much for stopping by, I do hope you enjoyed what I shared with you today! Have a great day!

This project was entered into the following challenge(s): Cooking It Up With Katie - Anything Goes; ABC Christmas - Anything Goes.

Paper Makeup Stamps Inspiration!

2011-11-18T07:00:00.000-05:00

Today I have a fun and autumn inspired Paper Makeup Stamps creation! I simply love all the of the Paper Make Up Stamps Fairy images, I have for years, but when Katie started releasing silhouettes of some of my favorite fairies I was even more excited!

This stamp was part of the September release, and I made this card earlier this month for a baby shower I attended. The card receiver love the card as did many of the baby shower goers. I went with a yellow and green theme, as she is expecting a little boy and everything else I got her was green as well. I finished it all off with some fun satin ribbon, I do love this image.

It is time for a new Paper Makeup Stamps Challenge! This one is called Thank You, we want to see your Thank You card creations!

Paper Makeup Stamps - Release Day!

2011-11-07T07:00:00.007-05:00

Today is release day at Paper Makeup Stamps! For my release day card I am using the adorable new Snowflake, part of our newest line of stamps Color Me Kids! I simply LOVE this line of stamps, they are all so darn cute!
I had a lot of fun with this cutie, I just love how sweet she is and the matching sentiment that come with her is just prefect, "there's snow one like you". I just love this stamp and I paired her with this fun winter line of designer paper from last winter that I still love called Wintertime from Echo Park. I thought that the stripes and the dots went so well together, I also pulled the colors from the designer paper out for both the main image and the layers. I found this pretty brown ribbon and used my circle Nestabilities to die cut the main image and then my SU! slot punch for the sentiment.

Be sure to head on over to the Paper Makeup Stamps Blog and check out the rest of the peeks for today! I do hope that you have a fabulous day!
