Paper Smooches Wedding Hop

Kim Hughes, former PTI Design Team Member and Former Paper Crafts Go-To-Gal was married yesterday! (This, I suppose, also makes her the former Kim Hughes.) Her design team from her new stamp company threw her a Wedding Card Blog Hop using her own fabulous stamps she designed.  The hop started on the Paper Smooches blog here.  There you can see the details of the contest and join in on the fun!

I recently purchased 2 sets of Paper Smooches stamp sets - Giddy Bugs and Vegtastic.  It's been so recent that I still haven't received them in the mail yet, so I decided to use one of Kim's digital stamps instead.  The Flowery Bird image is free on the Paper Smooches site and you can edit it any way you want.  I enlarged it, and flipped it so that I could have 2 birds facing each other.  Here's my card:

I colored the birds with Aquacolor pencils and blended with my Dove Blender pen.  I outlined some of the lines with my Sakura Stardust pen. I've been on the search for the grass punch from Fiskars or Martha Stewart, and finally found it.  It may be the best border punch...ever. (And I love border punches!)

Congratulations to Kim on her wedding day!  Can't wait to hear details!

Thanks for visiting My Happy Place today!
