CC Designs NEW RELEASE Hop!

Today is RELEASE DAY for the new JANUARY Stamps at C.C. Designs. As you have seen from our Preview Days, these new stamps revolve around LOVE and Valentine's Day. There are 3 new Little Pixie stamps, and 3 new Roberto's Rascals stamps. We also have a new sentiment set called XOXO Sentiments. Another big announcement.....we are going back to the pre-cut rubber for our stamps. We'll keep the sentiments clear so they are easy to line up on your cards.

For my card today I am using the Hearts To You rubber stamp!  I stamped her and colored her up with Copics, mounted her with some DP, added a bit or ribbon and some dots.  Super simple and CUTE!  This release is FULL of CUTE stamps and I'm SO excited to see what you all create with them!!!!! 

Every release we will have a New Release Blog Hop to showcase our awesome Design Team. Check out their amazing creations!
