Jumping Birthday Fishes

Hi Everyone! I'm totally excited about Kim Hughes new line of stamps called Paper Smooches. I found them through my crafty friend Kryssi and I've totally fallen in love! :)


I created this card using the fish (and sentiment) from Birthday Buddies. I created the waves with a circle punch that I punch randomly across two sheets of paper. When I layered the papers I made sure that the waves didn't line up so that their ocean was a little rocky. :)


I hope you have a great day! Thanks for stopping by!

PS- An extra special thank you for everyone that left me a comment on my last post. Every comment made me smile and made me feel like a winner despite my rejection. You all are the best!!!

The release is another knock out hit! Each stamp set is amazing! Today I'm featuring Cross My Heart and I sneaked in a few of the other sets too! ;) I started my card by die cutting the stitched index card . Then I cut out the window  which is designed to open. (cool, right?) I wanted a frame for my window so I die cut the window again and trimmed the side before adhering it to my index base. Then I backed my window with some cloud patterned paper for my outside sky. Next I stamped and die cut the cats from Purrfect Pair. I have had SO much fun with these cats. After adhering to cats to the window sill, I stamped and fussy cut the heart balloon. I tied some black floss around the balloon and adhere it to the kitten's paw. Finally, I stamped my sentiment.
