Hi there! I’m back for another group post with Papertrey Ink featuring the new Big Hugs stamp set & coordinating dies. I can’t say enough good about this set. The font choices are amazing. There are five coordinating word dies, and if you are anything like me, then you would be in word die heaven, which I am.
My first card showcases one of the hug word dies. How gorgeous is this handwritten font? I love how it pairs with the typewriter looking font of the sentiment. I masked off the bottom angle and blended in Harvest Gold, Summer Sunrise & Berry Sorbet.
My next card uses only the stamp set.
I added some Copic coloring to the flowers in large hugs sentiment as well as white embossing the message below.
I can’t wait to see what the rest of the team has created using this fantastic new set. Thanks so much for stopping by!
