My card features the Tick Tock stamp set. This set is so much fun and covers the gamut from friendship and thank you to love and parties!! Yup, it does all that. Plus, the images are perfect for colouring, either with solid stamp images like I did here, or with your choice of colouring medium! The frame for the sentiment was made with the centre of the Duo Die 1 and Ovals 1 dies.



When I saw this wristwatch, I knew I had to create some Swatches. Growing up, I had several of these. They were just so cool. 😉 For those who love to colour, you could do it the traditional way and if you don’t, well, the great news is that you don’t have to! I used Memento Luxe inks to fill in the bands. Check it out here:

Thanks so much for stopping by today. Remember to check the Paper Smooches Blog on Monday to see if you are one of the lucky winners!

  1. I think when you were wearing Swatches… I was wearing watches from Honest Eds. 😀 Your Swatch background is amazing, and what a great idea to have the solid strap stamps to save colouring! I like the sentiment panel, too, and the cute twine bows.

  2. I LOVE the watch!!! Super cute card! Perfect colors! Totally brings me back to when I wore five of them on one arm. (Yup. Totally did that. LOL!)

  3. Oh my gosh! This stamp set is adorable. Your card is AWESOME! And I love the video that walks us through the whole process on how you created it. Very Awesome! Thank you. Can't wait to get this set now.

  4. Great video – thank you. Nice job on coloring all those watch straps. I'm sure I would have messed up stamping those 2 or 3 times at least. 🙂

  5. Wow – a fabulous showcase of the new release with a card guaranteed to brighten someone's day when it arrives in the mailbox. Video: awesome!

  6. I remember Swatches. Also interchangeable bezels for watches… Huh, the good old days, Now everyone just uses their smart-phone… Anyway, great graphic card.
    P.S. I forwarded the Yoda card to my son who is off auditioning for graduate school in music. The sentiment seemed perfect!

  7. I LOVED Swatch watches when I was a teenager, I can remember I had a pink and white one. Do they still make them? The card is brilliant and love the video. I think I could try this stamping idea with some of my stamps, thanks for sharing!

  8. Emily, I love, love, love your card! It did remind me of Swatches from the 80's! 🙂 Your stamping is incredible! Thanks so much for sharing!!

  9. Wow!! Absolutely love your card!! This stamp set looks super fun!! I love how you can color them or stamp and fill them in with inks!! I have been dying to try these luxe inks!! Also love the frame u made for the sentiment!!

  10. Wow, how cool is that ?! So creative!! Your BG is so awesome, at first I was sure it was patterned paper. This new stamp set is great and versatile. Thank you so much for the video and thanks for the chance to win.

  11. WOW wow WOW

    THANK YOU for sharing your video tutorial and explaining so clearly along the way, it was pretty awesome to watch you stamping the watches and colouring them in and learning about your vellum layered die cut for the sentiment too 🙂

    THANK YOU for the crafty inspiration … and temptation!!!

  12. Oh what a seriously cute set, this one will be going straight into my cart on release day! Great card Emily and I always love when you do a video

  13. I learned so much from watching your video-how you turned the paper to find the placement of the watches, and using stamps to color each one are just 2 of my favs.
