Sending a Big Hug

Hola everyone! Pocono Pam here today sharing a card I created with the newly released Paper Hug Stamp & Cut XL set. The large dies and seven mix and match sentiment stamps included in the set are perfect for sending paper hugs to family and friends. 

My card was fun to create and came together quickly. 

To begin, I stamped "sending a big" from the set, near the top of a Dove White top-folding A2 card base in Intens-ified Black Ink. 

Next, using the Nesting Hearts Infinity Dies and Cherry, Pitch Black and Dove White cardstock, I die-cut several hearts in different sizes. I then layered and adhered three of them to the card base. 

Next, I die-cut the arms from the Paper Hug Stamp & Cut XL Set using one of the new Colors of Earth Paper.  

I added pink gel pen to the nails, some ring bling from the Frost Sequin assortment and a bracelet with Blues Hero Hues Enamel Dots and adhered the arms to card base overlapping the layered heart.

I die-cut H-U-G in Pitch Black cardstock and added white gel pen for highlight and adhered it to the bottom of the card base to complete. 

Thanks so much for taking a peek today!
