Paper Sweeties July Rewind!

Welcome my stampy friends!
It is REWIND Day here at Paper Sweeties
We want to show you how easy it is to mix the newest Paper Sweeties Stamps and Sweet Cuts with older releases to make all kinds of cards and projects!


Here is my card:


I stamped the new WISH sentiments in Versamark Ink and then heat embossed with white embossing powder. I used the "smooshing" technique with some Distress Inks and water, and got this cool background. The stars are from the older BE HAPPY Sweet Cuts which I die cut with white glitter paper. I added some Marshmallow sequins to add more sparkle. I wanted the background to look like a pretty night sky!

Now please go hop over to my Paper Sweeties Teamies for more great ways to use the old with the new!
