Saturday with Paper Smooches

Happy Saturday folks!  I've got a couple Paper Smooches cards to share today.  The first one is a card and a party decoration using the new Fringe 2 die.  I used the die to cut different colored tissue paper (stacked about 5 sheets high).  After cutting I keep all the sheets together, wrapped them around the end of a coordinating paper straws, and secured with some washi tape.  The beauty of this project is that you can use these as decorations or as straws (you can just push the fringe down the straw).  

I also made a matching shaker card using the Frame Duo 2 die.  I filled the shaker with some hexagon confetti and some tissue paper confetti that I made by die cutting tissue paper into fringe (see below) and then cutting up the fringe into squares.  Here's a closer look of the tissue paper...

This second card uses the new Green Acres Icons dies.  I love the little pig from the Green Acres set, so I couldn't resist making a "when pigs fly" card.  (The balloons are from Hullabaloo and the sentiment is from Uplifters)

Thanks for stopping by today!  I hope you have a great weekend!  

Mahalo and Aloha,
jj
