Paper Sweeties January 2018 Blast from the past favorites!

Happy Sunday!
Hope you're having a great weekend!  
It's cold again here in NC after a few days of spring like temps.  Brrrr!

Whatever your weather, sit back and relax and check out Paper Sweeties today!

This month instead of a product release, we are doing a Winter Blast of past favorite products.


Hope through the Design Team links below and see all of our Winter projects:

I tried a new-to-me technique at a card class by my friend, Bonnie Klass this past week using baby wipes, ink and multi-media paper.  You take a baby wipe and dab some ink from the lid of some dye ink and rub it on the paper.  You won't believe how smooth it goes on! Or maybe you will because that's my background of my card.  I also followed a technique from Jennifer McGuire to create an "in and out" card.  

I stamped the snowflakes in Versamark and embossed with white emboss powder.  Then I smoothed on the ink colors with a baby wipe.  Next I die cut the mug through the card front and affixed the mug to the inside of the card.  So now, it's part of the outside and inside of the card.
