papertrey ink october...

**Edited to add a Stamp-a-Faire Era Kit update at the end of my post!**

It's time again to wrap up another month of fun new Papertrey Ink release items.  All of these goodies I'll be sharing with you will be available to purchase on October 15th @10pm EST.  This first card uses the new Freshly Fallen stamp set and dies.

I used the new Stitched Tag die to create a vellum pocket where I could tuck in some die cut Freshly Fallen snowflakes and sequins.  I also used the new Seasonal Stitching:  Holly leaves and berry to embellish  my sentiment.

And, my background was stamped using images from the Freshly Fallen stamp set...truly such a sweet set.

Next up is the new Jolly Holiday stamp set.  Super playful and whimsical.  I combined this stamp set with the Shakes Shapes:  Ornament die and a Doily Details die inserted in between the shaker shape layers.

I added a Snow Globe Additions sentiment across the center of my card...also a new stamp set this month.

And, at the bottom and down the right, I used the Jolly Holiday stamp set.  Makes ya want to wrap presents and start piling them under the Christmas tree.  Love this set too!

From Christmas to Thanksgiving, this card uses the new Birthday Classics:  November stamp set combined with the Canned set and die cut label. 

I've been itching to get out my Shape Up Series:  Pumpkin before fall has come and gone, so I took the opportunity to use it on this card.

And lastly, the new Keep it Simple:  Hanukkah and Festival of Lights stamp sets were used on this card. 

I used the new Monthly Moments:  Journal Card 5 die along with these sets as I love the sprinkling of stars falling.


Thanks for stopping by and for your kind words.  You always make my day!

Love these sweet cards, Melis! So pretty!

[Kathy]

great cards!

Your sensibilities + Papertrey = Bliss.

These are just drop dead gorgeous. I'm loving the way your using grey, and I'll finally break down this order, and buy the grey inks. Your cards with vellum are so beautiful and subtle, that I must design some cards using it.

Thank you again for your soft and vintage sensibilities which make your contributions to Papertrey so special.

Just had a chance to look over all the goodies from the PTI release, and have to say, you get better each month! Little goodies, like the doily inside the candy cane ornament, just WOW! I've decided you create in a sort of theater in the round with die cuts and glitter, and junk bows all around to just pluck and VOILA! I'm in my happy place...
