Good morning! It's the first day of Papertrey Ink's July countdown and we're off to such a beautiful start! I get to share with you a few projects created with the new Corner Adorner: July stamp set and coordinating dies.....this might just be my most favorite corner adorner yet!
I used the Mix & Mat: Scallops die, cut from Weathervane cardstock, underneath my lovely Corner Adorner: July stamped die cuts. The images reminded me of the intricate design found in the Mix & Mat: Scallops and I wanted to try them together. You'll notice that I have two layers of corner adorners....my bottom layer was stamped on Weathervane cardstock using watermark ink and then heat embossed using white embossing powder. My top layer was stamped on Stamper's Select White cardstock using Lilac Grace ink.
I added my sentiment on a die cut Wine Bottle Tag 2 die cut, stamping in Lilac Grace ink once again. The Forest Floor: Summer stamp set was used to create my delicate flower. The fun stitched rectangle and scalloped frames you'll see on my cards today are also new products you'll soon be hearing more about too! I used Bitty Big Lilac Grace and Soft Stone paper to compliment my color choices.
This fun little card, uses a different image from the Corner Adorner: July set. I stamped in Berry Sorbet and also heat embossed my corner image in white embossed powder over Berry Sorbet cardstock. I love this fresh, fun look.
Once again, I layered my Corner Adorner: July images, adding lots of dimension and depth. The berries are from the Forest Floor: Summer stamp set and are stamped in Pure Poppy, Berry Sorbet, Sweet Blush, Summer Sunrise, Stormy Sea, Simply Chartreuse, and Ripe Avocado.
My sentiment is from the new Never Enough Thanks stamp set...full of fun sentiments!
Lastly, I created this card using dark colors mixed with some Sweet Blush....the sentiments included in the Corner Adorner: July stamp set remind me of engagement and wedding season, so those occasions were created with this card in mind. I used Smokey Shadow cardstock for my card base.
My inside corner images were stamped using Stormy Sea, with my outer corner images stamped in watermark ink on Weathervane cardstock and heat embossed using white embossing powder.
I heat embossed my sentiment using silver embossing powder, and embellished with butterflies, flowers, and vines from the Color Pop: Butterflies, Color Pop: Florals, and Graceful Greetings II stamp sets. I used Bitty Big Sweet Blush paper in the background, along with fun scallops from the darling new die collection you'll be seeing soon.
Thanks for visiting. Remember all of these new products will be available on July 15th, 10PM EST.

I absolutely love your cards. The soft lacy and scallop details give them such a feminine look. I can't wait to purchase the products you used. Can you tell me which die creates the scallop layer in the background of your cards?
