papertrey ink july...

Welcome back!  Today's post wraps up the projects I created for Papertrey Ink's July release.  My first project uses the new Wishes Come True stamp set.  I had so much fun layering the candle images to create candles with patterns and personality.  This set comes with a coordinating die collection as well.

I used sequins to top each candle, but the stamp set comes with a perfect little flame image to add on top of each candle.

The Balloon Bash stamp set is next...too cute for words and I love the sentiments.  This set also comes with coordinating dies.

I used the new Birthday Trio Dies combined with the new Bitty Background Blocks II stamp set as well.

Next up I used the new First Place stamp set and coordinating dies to make an extra special badge for my #1 little girl.  Such a fun and playful set.

The Scrolling Script and Delightful Dahlias Additions sets were used together on this card.  Both so beautiful and fun to stamp with.

I colored my vellum leaves with a Copic marker and love the soft touch of color.

Another super sweet and playful new set is the Polka Dot Parade #6 set.  I must have autumn on my mind, as I used colors that remind me of fall.  

A few blossoms and sequins bring this little tree to life.

And lastly, this card uses the new Wonderful Words - Together and Boutique Borders:  Love stamp sets and coordinating dies.

So much to love about the lovely fonts and sentiments used in the Boutique Borders:  Love set and the frame is especially beautiful too.

That will do it for me.  What a fun release!

Wonderful as usual. I especially like your candles with personality. Stamping on the glassine bags always results in the softest, sweetest images. Oh, and the badge for your little bean (not so little anymore) is charming. Love those soft colors mixed with all of the texture.

Oh Melissa, what an absolutely gorgeous post. The different shades and tones, those gorgeous sequin flames to that beauiful little tree. Just love all your creations, thought I could pick just one over the rest but I can't, they are each stunning in their own right. Beautiful, beautiful, thank you.
