Smooch Spritz



Hi Stampers,

Today I wanted to share some tips on using our newish Smooch Spritz- you're going to love it! This great 'embellishment' comes in 4 neutral colors and brings a lot of 'wow factor in a few short seconds- you have to try it out:)

Tips and Techniques: -For best results, spray six to ten inches from project. For a heavier application of color, spray closer to the project. -Before each use, shake vigorously until all particles are mixed. The sprayer can clog if particles get sucked up into the tube. Spray in direction of arrow as viewed on nozzle top. -To speed dry time, heat with a heat tool. -If ink dries outside the nozzle, remove the nozzle and submerge in household cleaner (such as Windex or 409), for 20 minutes. Rinse, replace the nozzle, shake well and spray -Layer colors by spraying a small amount of two different colors onto your project. Start with a lighter color and end with a darker color. -Build color by spraying several thin coats. Allow to dry between coats. Spray chipboard and embellish with a coordinating Smooch™ color. -Spray a background on card and pages. When dry, stamp images.
Order your Smooch Spritz here and have fun!

Happy stamping,

Friends Fur-Ever Card


Hello Stampers,

Pretty in Pink Pillowbox



Hi Stampers,

Here is another of our 'almost' Artisan Award entries, this time in the 3D category. My Mom, Candy aka Sweet Stamper designed this lovely Pillow Box favor:)

Recognize the Pillow Box? We highlighted these in our July Stamp Clubs using the Newsprint DSP!

I love these little Pillow Boxes- they come together in a snap with the Big Shot die cutting machine and take just a small amount of adhesive to hold together! These Pillow Boxes can then be filled with all manner of goodies from lip gloss to candies to business cards to jewelry- I'm sure you can think of other things to put inside, too:)

Have fun creating your own pretty packaging and order your supplies here!

Happy stamping,
Tiffany aka Ladybug Stamper
