papertrey ink september...

Hello again!  It's the Papertrey Ink September release wrap-up and I have a few remaining projects to share with you.  This first card uses the beautiful, new O'Tannenbaum stamp set.

I stamped and embossed my tree image on a Basic Bookmark #2 die using three different colors of embossing powder, silver, gold, and Shabby Green from Stampendous.

I love all of the sweet tree images included in this set with their sparkly accents ready to bring them to life.  

This card uses the new Phrase Play #8 stamp and die set.  I think this may officially be my most favorite Phrase Play yet :).

I used die cut vellum snowflakes to accent and the Holiday Tags 2010 stamp set as well.

Next up, this tag uses the new Text Block:  Christmas die along with the new Keep it Simple:  Season's Greetings stamp set.

My tag came together so quickly using the Text Block die.  All I needed was a few die cut elements such as a snowflake, holly leaves, etc.

The Wet Paint Holiday stamps and dies are used on this card, with embossed gold and gold glittered paper.

Everything is layered over a Basic Bookmark #3 die, cut twice, once in patterned paper and once in vellum.  Then I just added a few simple embellishments, such as felt holly leaves, trim, and ribbon.

Last but not least is a birthday card created with the Birthday Classics:  October stamp set.  

I use die cut leaves cut using the Leaf Prints die set and also used the lovely Autumn Elegance stamp set.

All of the supplies used on these cards can be found below, but I am happy to answer any questions you may have.

Thanks for visiting!

Beautiful cards, Melis! I love the first and last one the most. That tree looks fantastic on the first one, and the leaves make the perfect accent for an October birthday.

Your cards are all just beautiful! I especially love the last one with the leaves cut from patterned paper. I see in your supplies that it is Kaisercraft paper - can you tell me what collection the blue print with roses is from? Thanks!
