Too bad that you couldn't see...see that man that boy could be...there is more than meets the eye...I see the soul that is inside...

Hey y'all! Happy Friday!! Today I'm excited to be participating in the Paper Pretties new release blog hop! My friend Heather is the NEW OWNER (did you know?? Yep! They have a new boss lady!), and I was thrilled when she asked me to play along.If you came from Jane Matsumoto's blog, you're in the right place. But if you happened to just come visit me (love you for that!), you might want to visit the Paper Pretties Blog to start from the top.

I got to play with Skater Zac...how cute is he?? I used this week's Splitcoast Sketch Challenge to create my card.


I colored him with Copic markers, cut him out with Nestabilities, and then added some Cosmo Cricket paper and a gray piece of cardstock embossed with the Diamond Plate Cuttlebug Embossing Folder. Everything was sponged with Crumb Cake and Early Espresso ink.

In addition to Skater Zac, there are 6 other sets being released today in the Paper Pretties store. All of the new sets are high quality clear photopolymer sets, and Zac stamped fabulously! Y'all know how picky I am with my clear stamps. *wink*

I also have to say, now that Paper Pretties is based in Madison, WI, orders arrive sooo much more quickly! Heather's customer service is top-notch, and my order arrived in just a couple of days. She's awesome!


Now it's time to hop on over to see Jennifer Greco. 

Tell her I said hi, and have a fabulous weekend!
