A special blog hop





 


Please join us this weekend as we spread the word about how wonderful Operation Write Home is.  They have sent over a million cards to our troops - how amazing is that!?!  

I have tons of family members and loved ones who have served and are still serving our wonderful country, so this cause hits close to home with me.  I created this set below with all of our loved ones in mind.  A portion of every Circle of Honor set sold will be donated to OWH.  Now through midnight on Memorial Day...we are offering a 15% off discount on this special stamp set.  Please apply this code in the "coupon code box" before you check out: MemorialDayPromo

 

I created this card using one of the OWH sketches...they have some really terrific sketches - I hope you check them out!



I know you will want to play along - I am sure this will be one AMAZING blog hop and I am honored to be a part of it.  I look forward to the eye candy and inspiration :)

...please start HERE

Pep Rally Day TWO

Some of you guessed that we would have a new BABY stamp set - well, you are correct!!  It's called PIP SQUEAKS and it's totally F-U-N!

I used the baby image for a New Year's card.  I "computer generated" the sentiment and created my own sash, but the baby is on the new stamp set.  I cut the hat from card stock...the teal paper is embossed.  I designed the baby to have eyes that you can color and customize.  I think he/she will be a blast to stamp!



 I will be back tomorrow with a special blog hop, promotion and special...stay tuned...

I hope you have a fabulous holiday weekend.
Loves!

Pep Rally Week!

Having five Thursday's in the month throws our routine off a bit - but we can swerve.

How about a special sneak peek of our June stamp sets?

1.

 Any ideas of what the set themes are???

We will share more peeks all next week - our PS DT blog hop is next Thursday - woohooo!

I can't leave you without including a little something to inspire you...

Since we now have plenty of sentiment stamp sets to choose from - create a basic card and change out the sentiment to say what you like.  Simple card sets make wonderful gifts.

Banners continue to be VERY popular.  I used a triangle punch, but I am sure that you can find a new use of your banner/pennant products.



I will be back tomorrow with another peek - I am so excited!!

Hey :)

Glenda is back with us today to share two more cards that she created as our guest.

These colors are beautiful - wow!!  I LOVE the flower that Glenda created with our Hubby and Wifey stamp set.  Chevrons are HOT, so this is one super trendy card!!



Glenda's second card showcases Alfresco...and so does Teri's card below

Glenda paper pieced her burger with patterned papers and chose colors that I think most of us think of when we think of a BBQ.  This would make a great gift card holder for a local market (the perfect place to buy BBQ goodies)



Teri's colors are almost identical to Glenda's - how fun!  I love the solid card stock - it's so clean and fun!!   Those smiley faces really brings this darling card to life!





Am I getting you in the mood to BBQ on Monday?
Hope to "see" you here tomorrow
smooches,
Kim

Hey PS Friends...

SO GLAD you stopped by!  :)

How many of you are having a BBQ on Memorial Day?  I know we are :)  These Alfresco cards should get you pumped for some grillin'!

Here are two totally different takes using our "Smokin' Hot" sentiment:  One is shabby and the other is totally fun and cute.

Laurie's steak looks delicious - amazing coloring!!  She used a die cut grill that compliments our set perfectly.  It looks like her smoke puff is glittered..love her sentiment treatment - GREAT card all around :)



This card is so fresh and fun!!  The colors are so happy and the clean lines are perfection!!  She's another rock star colorer - WOW!!



Have a great day!

Today's a Winner-day

Let's start with our winner...

This lucky gal won our Happy Camper stamp set:

What a great set! I go camping each year, so this set would definitely get some use on my layouts. Thanks for the chance to win!

woohoooo - Congrats!!  Please send an e-mail to info(at)papersmoochesstamps(dot)com 

Thank you all for stopping by and leaving a sweet comment on our blog - we appreciate it so very much!

Heidi used our Hubby and Wifey stamp set in such a clever way.  I LOVE the non-traditional look of her card!   Isn't it cool how she stamped the sentiment twice in two different colors?



Here's another clever card designed by Kryssi.  She hung the wedding rings from a machine stitched line and glittered them up.  Seriously, this is one super SWEET card!!



Happy Monday!

Something special to share - and a giveaway

On May 15th, we released our newest set called Happy Camper and I am here today to help promote this sweet set with two very talented ladies!  This is the seventh stamp set from our Kismet collection.



I made this card a while ago...and now that I look at it...I should have grounded the images.  Even a simple line along the back of the images would have helped...ah well...I still like it ok  :)  They were fun to color any ways.  UGH...and now that I look at it even more...the tent should have been where the fire is...in the back distance.   (smacking head, LOL)  Please tell me that I am not the only one that looks at a card later and doubts their design decisions...

I have one "Happy Camper" stamp set to give away to one lucky person!  You have until midnight on Sunday, May 20th to leave a comment.  I will post the winner here on Monday, May 21st.
