papertrey ink may...

I have a few final cards to share with you today that will wrap up Papertrey Ink's May release.  All of these new items will be available to purchase at 10PM EST on May 15th.  

I'll start with one of my favorite new sets, the Red, White, & Blue stamp set as I absolutely love the 4th of July.  My birthday was always celebrated during this wonderful holiday as a child, so I have the most wonderful of memories to associate with this time of year.  

The images and sentiments in this set are so unique.  I'll be turning to this set quite often here in the next couple of months.

There are many new baby products available at Papertrey Ink this month.  

This card uses the new Boutique Borders:  Baby stamp set and coordinating dies along with the Hanging By a Thread and Happiness in Bloom sets and dies.

I used some older and some newer Melissa Frances products on this card including paper from the new Classic Elegance collection.

The Polka Dot Basics #4 stamp set and dies were used on this card.  I adore that darling teddy bear!

I also used the Just the Ticket stamp set and die along with the Tremendous Tags and Small Scallop Border dies.

More Freckled Fawn washi across the bottom cut into scallops.

This card was created with the new Wonderful Words:  Baby and the Polka Dot Basics #4 stamp sets.

After die cutting "Baby" from cream cardstock I coated it in glitter to make it stand out just a bit.  The tag is stamped using the new Ruby Rose stamp set and is stitched using the Quick Stitch Sentiments die.

Tiny Triangles is next...love this set.  It's like getting to have a shopping spree in a candy store with this set as there are so many fun possibilities.

The Side by Side Sentiments was also used.  A super fun and basic set to have on hand.

I used my Tremendous Tags die once again here to add a simple finishing touch.

I hope you've found a set or two that you love.  Thank you so much for visiting!
