Hello, my name is Kim Hughes and I am the face behind Paper
Smooches.
Think of “Paper Smooches” as using ink to kiss your paper
with our clear stamps!
You may recognize my name from the stamp collection that
I Illustrated for Cornish Heritage Farms in the past. Cornish Heritage Farms closed their doors and
I was able to purchase the rights to all of my images. In time, I hope to re-introduce some of my
stamp images and sets here at Paper Smooches.
I missed Illustrating and although I could have worked
with over a dozen stamp companies that approached me, I felt that it was
important for me to share my talent with you personally.
I begin by sketching images and concepts in pencil. I then draw every sentiment and image with a
black pen on white paper a zillion times until I get them just the way I like it. Ok, maybe a zillion is an exaggeration, but sometimes it takes me more than 30 tries to
get it exactly right. (practice makes perfect) My stamp sets are
truly a labor of love and I am thrilled to share my designs with all of you. My images reflect my silly personality and I
hope they will bring a smile to your face.
Paper Smooches stamps are made in the USA, from the highest quality
photopolymer. Excellent customer service
is very important to me. I am always
available via e-mail and phone if you have any questions
or concerns.
I am proud to be an artist. I drew pictures at a very early age, which turned
into a love of painting pictures. Over ten years ago, I ventured into the paper crafting and stamping
world and have loved every minute of the creative process. I paper craft and/or stamp nearly every single day. I have had
over 1,000 projects published in multiple magazines and idea books and I was a Paper Crafts magazine Go-to Gal and DT
Coordinator for Scrapbook & Cards Today magazine. I have worked closely with many magazines, manufactures and scrapbook
stores and have learned so much from working with all of them. I designed numerous fonts and sentiments for
Paper Crafts magazine, Creating Keepsakes magazine and ScrapNFonts. Paper Smooches stamps are created by a stamper for stampers. If you would like to read more about my creative
accomplishments, here is a link to my resume.. If you would like to

I hope that you will welcome Paper Smooches stamps into your creative hands.
Have a wonderful day!
