Smooches on Tuesday!

Hello readers!
Happy Tuesday, I have such a delightful product to share with you all today! But first, BLOG CANDY TIME! The winner from yesterday's Simon Says Stamp & Show Wings & Things is Marianne from the Netherlands! Congrats!
And now- drum roll please...

Today's blog is ALL about Paper Smooches! I am totally in love with this brand and just know all of you will fall head over heels for these clear stamps like I have! Paper Smooches was started by Kim Hughes- who is a FABULOUS designer & I encourage you to check out her blog for fun tips and new styles!

While we're talking about blogs, check out Paper Smooches' own blog as well. They always have fun blog hops and challenges! This card was made with Paper Smooches Sunny Side Up and Hero Arts Cling Dots by Kim herself for a blog hop she did recently with people like Jennifer McGuire! How cute is it?! I love the sentiment especially, it's so happy & matches the theme of the set!

This one could fit in totally here at our offices! We have coffee fans galore here! This is made with Paper Smooches Hot Concoctions set by Heidi Van Laar- which is an October release stamp in at Simon Says Stamp! There are two other October Stamp Sets that have been officially released called Chit Chat and My Peeps.

On top of releasing the October stamps, Paper Smooches also created this clear stamp set called Hope in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Kim goes into detail behind the release of this stamp in her October 1st Paper Smooches blog post. I love how tough and encouraging these sentiments are.

This card is made by Kryssi Ng and is using the Hot Concoctions with Pretty Phrases. The sentiment stamps are so fun and unique with how they are designed, and the images on the stamp sets are so versatile! Those could be candies in a bowl, but since they've come from Hot Concoctions, they're actually coffee beans and a mug!

This card by Heather Pulvirenti uses Sunny Side Up, Friendly Flowers, and My Peeps!

This is a personal favorite of mine! Terri Anderson made this one using Perpetual Bliss's set for the lightbulb and the letters were from Alphadot!

Kim made this festive card with the Swanky Snowdudes set and My Peeps!

And now, my friends, may I introduce you to Chubby Chums! I think any project that includes these chums is SURE to win over anyone! I mean how could you not smile are these little faces!?

I hope you enjoyed this tiny introduction to a brand with a TON of fun! Now it's time for some more blog candy talk! Just join our following and then comment on our blog and tell me your favorite part of the Paper Smooches line thus far! You could win a Paper Smooches Chit Chat stamp set!!

Thanks for reading and I urge you to check out how adorable the entire line of Paper Smooches are!

Make sure you continue to check out our STAMPtember Category on Simon Says Stamp's website and pick up all the deals you can before it's too late!

Before I continue, I'm excited to share with you the winner from yesterday's Simon Says Stamp and Show's Men Only blog candy! The winner is Larissa Heskett from McCook, Nebraska! Please email Fran@SimonSaysStamp with your shipping info!

For our very last Terrifying Tuesday, we're going out with a bang! Today I'm going to share with you an adorably spooky Tri-Fold card from Hero Arts and their Design Team member Lisa Spangler!

Lisa even went so far as to share a video in her post too! We are going to share it with you guys too because she does an awesome job, and everyone should get the chance to make this cute card!

A big star in this card is the Hero Arts - Sizzix Message Frames Stamps & Die Cuts! How awesome is this that you can use the stamp and color it the way you want AND THEN easily cut it out with the matching die cut! We have so many of the new Hero Arts - Sizzix Die Cuts & Stamps and embossing folders!

And because it is STAMPtember, I have to point out how cute the cat is from Hero Art's Halloween Moon Cling Stamp Set with the googly eyes!
