Celebrating Kim and PaperSmooches with a blog HUG!

 Hi Everyone!

Today we are celebrating and thanking one of my favorite people: Kim Hughes with a blog Hug! Today we are celebrating Kim @papersmooches with a blog hug. Paper Smooches has been such a wonderful, fun part of my time as a cardmaker! I fell in love with Kims designs right away and was extatic when I got to design for PS. I am missing it very much already but am glad to know that Kim is happy with her new Path in life! I wish her the best of luck with everything she desides to do in the future - I am so grateful to have gotten to know Kim and to have been a part of the lovely PS dt Thank You Kim for all You’ve Done for me! ❤️❤️❤️ 

I have made two cards - one with my top favorite PS products (I have many (-: ) 



and one with a message that I think is great for where Kim is right now - Today is a new day and holds a lot of new possibilities! 







But before you move on I wanted to share some of my favorite PS cards (I had VERY many to choose from (-: ) so I couldn't limit it to one collection that I had first planned !

If I don't break down crying on this blog hop, it will be a miracle. 😢 Kim's images are so recognizable, that we can just "tell" when it's one of hers. I felt that when I saw your rose. It's one of the all-time fav's. And that sun hugging cloud is iconic. JJ picked perfection for your badges! Thank you for using Kim's products and sharing them with all of us. 🎉🎈🎇

I'm so glad I got to Blog Hug with you:) Not only for your creative talents (of which they are many), but also for your kindness too!
