Celebrate with Stars

I can't believe it's my 4th week over on the Paper Smooches Blog! When I received my package of goodies to be the April guest designer...I was THRILLED they sent me the new Stars die set.

I used 4 of the 7 dies from the set on my card. This would make a great card for 4th of July ---- which will be here before you know it! You could also make this 1/2 as tall and into name tags or decorate paper treat sacks. How about cutting a longer strip and making a wrap for around napkins! For a Graduation card/party you could use the school colors. You get the idea.

The sentiment is from the new Bold Buzzwords set. I'm soooo happy I got that set too! I stamped the dots and blue stars from the Primary stamp set. Then I took the smallest star die and cut out the centers of the blue stamped stars. The inside of the card is lined with white cardstock...so that's the white you see showing through.

I die-cut several blue star to frame the stamped stars. The large red star is die-cut...then used a smaller star to cut the center. I die-cut a mirror star (same mirror adhesive sheet I used for THIS card) and pieced it down flat into the middle.

Check out today's post over on the Paper Smooches Blog to see Teri Anderson's card using the same Stars die set and Bold Buzzwords set. Don't forget to leave a little love while you're over there ;)

Make sure to come back next week for my 5th and final gdt project with Paper Smooches.



Have a creative day!

Paper Smooches Guest Designer for April

Hey there friends! I'm beyond excited to be the Guest Designer this month for Paper Smooches! I just love all the fun stamps and dies! Each time there's a new release...I'm right in there checkin' it all out. Speaking of new release...I'll be sharing projects with you this month using some of newest stamps and dies from Paper Smooches. So...let's not waste anymore time (*wink*) and get to my project!

I used a new set called Tick Tock to make this fun and funky neon card. It's just full of happy!

My design idea is a spin off of a cityscape. Can you see it? I used the "hello" clock image as if it were a speech bubble. FUN! I also used a curvy die from the Borders 1 Dies set to create the curves at the top.

From this angle you can see the shine of the silver ink. Soooo cool!!! The silver and neon inks really bring these images to life...don't 'cha think?!!
