Paper Sweeties March 2019 New Release Sneak Peeks!


Welcome to the March 2019 New Release Sneak Peeks over at Paper Sweeties!  Today we're sharing some makes with the new Get Well Stamp Set and Sweet Cuts along with some other favorites from the Paper Sweeties Shop!

I created this loose plaid background using my Zig watercolor markers.  I first saw this over at Lori Hairston's Choux Choux Paper Art Blog and it's so much fun to make them!  I used watercolor paper, and wet my markers with water for the wider lines and used the side of the markers and used the tip and less water for the thin lines.  I didn't try to make them perfectly straight.  I love these because you can use whatever colors you want!  After I was done, I splattered some small water drops onto the background with a paintbrush and then soaked them up with a paper towel to soften it a bit.


Then I layered on all of the goodies.. that pretty Scallop Oval Frame, the sweet little flowers and leaves from the Hello Spring Stamp Set, and then that awesome Get Well sweet cut that I cut three times so I could stack them for a little dimension.  I stamped the sentiment from the Get Well Stamp Set on black cardstock with Versamark; heat embossed it in white, and fussy cut it out.  I like to do this when I don't want my sentiment to take up too much real estate on my card.


Lastly I added some sequins to the center of the flowers from the Latte Coffee sequins and scattered a few around on the card.

I'm playing along over at Cupcake Inspirations Plaid challenge!  You have a little time left to play along if you'd like!  I knew I had to... I mean... it's plaid!  My favorite color!

Thanks for stopping and be sure you check out what everyone else has made for you today!
