Hope you're having a wonderful day today.
I'm happy and thankful.
Lots to share with you, the first project was created for Emma's Paperie based on a beautiful, creamy, soft color palette.
I may have just found my new color love...I love this combination. All of the supplies used can be found HERE on the Emma's Paperie blog.
Now onto some Papertrey Ink new release projects...such a fun month of new stamp sets.
The lovely new Harvest Berries stamp set and coordinating die are wonderful! I used cardboard for my dies, painted it, coated it with Glimmer Mist, and then a bit of glitter.
This card uses stamps from the Fillable Frames Additions 2 and Harvest Berries sets.
I created a card set using the new Flower Fusion # 7 stamp set and wrapped the cards up in an embellished glassine bag.
A coordinating die is also available for this set.
This card uses the Think Big Favorites 7 stamp set.
Love, love, love the new Table Service stamp set and dies.
The new Modern Wood Mats stamp set...
Sweet Autumn Acorns stamp set and dies...
Two of my faves here...the new Background Basics: Houndstooth and Tag-Its #7 sets.
And lastly, the new Simple Sunflower set and dies.
I've got all of the supplies used on each of these cards listed for you HERE in my Papertrey Ink gallery.
Before I go, I couldn't help but share this cute necklace...

Hi Melissa,
Your projects are all simply divine! Your card for Emma's Paperie has the most beautiful layout and I too love that color combo. Sigh. And since I love acorns, your sweet acorn card is just the cutest thing I've ever seen! Thanks for sharing.

what a fun post! I love that striking color combo of the Flower Fusion cards. The black, stamped leaves on the green really pop! I will have to try this. When I saw the little acorns in the jar I just giggled, it is such a sweet unexpected combo. thanks for sharing your inspirational projects!

You continue to inspire me, Melissa! These are simply so stunning, that they could be framed -as all your work! LOVE your style. You have a talent like no other, Melissa. I'm not good with words, but I just want you to know how much you've inspired so many crafters to be better at what they love, and think deeper, and use things in a different way. I appreciate you, for taking the time to post your things and share unconditionally.
Thinking of you! Danielle

I'm especially fond of the necklace. I love how it has different shapes to represent different people's names.
