Another sad goodbye...


Hello friends! Today, we have another sad goodbye. But first, I wanted to tell you to check out the sidebar of the site! We're currently working on revamping the blog a little bit, but now it may be easier for you to grab those blinkies you love! Why? Because I finally figured out how to display a scroll bar and encode! Go me! hehe. Ok, so I get excited easily. :) So feel free to share your love for Paper Makeup Stamps! :)

And now for the sad news... Kim Stewart is having to step down from the PMS design team
in order to fulfill some commitments to her family. She will be greatly missed from our team!
We all love Kim so much, and wish her the best! She has assured us that we will still be seeing PMS creations from her!

Here is a little show off of some of Kim's fabulous work!














WE LOVE YOU KIM!

Reminder... this week's countdown to christmas sale is making some sets sell out fast! Be sure to check out the site for which sets are still available at a 35% discount! Use Sets35 as your voucher code. This code is not able to be used with other codes.

JUGS challenge



Hello friends! I wanted to give everyone a little update on the Anderson family. Obviously these past 2 weeks have been the hardest that they have ever experienced. They have kept their faith and they have held a lot of focus on their younger son Jack. Sarah has a really wonderful tribute up on her family blog that you can see here. It is the picture slideshow that was also played at his memorial. I do want to warn you, however, that you may want to have a box of tissues handy.

On a crafting note, the challenge blog JUGS (Just Us Girls) is sponsoring a challenge using the Henry image. You can find the challenge HERE. There is a winner of this challenge. A $15 gift certificate to the PMS site! But the catch is you must use the Henry image. The proceeds from this image are going directly to the Anderson family.

Here are some wonderful Henry cards for you to get some ideas from...



Thanks so much everyone!

Sorry to everyone who tried to place an order this morning! For some reason (i.e I created the coupon too late at night last night and couldnt see straight) the code was misspelled in the system so all of you who were inputting the correct code, the system couldnt find it! WOOPS! :)

Everything is working fine now! So the coupon code again is.... SETS35

A Sketchy Makeup 4 the Weekend

Hi peeps and welcome to another Makeup 4 the Weekend challenge!! This week's challenge is getting down and sketchy...Sketch challenges are my favorite challenges so I was really excited about this one. Even though I am a day late (oops!) I also wanted to play along with the "makeup" release party challenge (which you can see HERE).
I just love Moody for Fashion!!! She is so chic and so much fun to color! You can find more details about my card on my blog. :)

Now for some more eye candy check out what the Paper Makeup Artists have to show off this week...

Now it's your turn!! You do not have to use Paper Makeup Stamps to play along but if you've got them why not use them! When you play along be sure to link up your creations to Mr. Linky below using a direct link to your card and when you upload to SCS/PCP please use keyword makeup4theweekend04 so we can see your creations there as well!

Have a wonderful weekend and get inky!!!

Time for another Thursday Showoff...

There was not a Makeup for the Weekend challenge last Friday because of the Sneak Peeks, so today we are showcasing the submissions for the Release Party Challenges! You still have until midnight tonight so submit your entries... winners will get a PMS stamp of their choice!! Challenge #1 was "A CASE of PMS", CASE any card in the SCS PMS gallery... use PMSRP19 and PAPER MAKEUP STAMPS as your keywords. The second challenge was our Paper Makeup "recipe"...
foundation: use textured cardstock (prism, bazzill, or embossed);
blush: use the color pink;
eyes: use the color black (like mascara);
lips: use something shimmery/shiney (like lip gloss).
I personally LOVE this recipe (cause it came from me, lol). Same rules apply to this challenge but use code PMSRP20 for your gallery keywords.

Make sure you tune in tomorrow for our next Makeup for the Weekend challenge!!
