Hello friends! Welcome to Day 2 of Papertrey Ink's September release. Today I am sharing projects created using the new Sending Comfort stamp set and die and the Hinged Gift Card Box: Christmas Window dies. These are all so much fun to work with!
My first card uses the beautiful Sending Comfort stamp set and die. This set is perfect for those hard to create for occasions involving sympathy and comfort. I used the new Pierced Feature Frames: Oval dies to create my focal point and stamped my sentiment in Olive Twist ink on the center die cut. I then framed it in using Chicken Scratch Gingham and stamped and die cut leaves and berries from the Sending Comfort stamp set. I stamped in Aqua Mist, Ocean Tides, and Americana.
Across the bottom I used Smokey Shadow cardstock and the new Text & Texture: Wood Slices stamp set along with Perfect Pearls in white. You may also catch a peek at the new Shape Shifters: Oval 3 die, cut from Wonderland paper.
Next up are a couple of fun gift boxes, created using the Hinged Gift Card Box and new Christmas Windows dies. You can use these dies directly on the flap of the Hinged Gift Card Box die, but I cut mine separately from coordinating cardstock, layering them over the top of my gift card box.
This box was cut from Wonderland paper with the Christmas Window cut from Stormy Sea cardstock and layered over white cardstock. I added leaves and berries from the Sending Comfort stamp set and added a large glittered snowflake cut from the Snowfall die collection.
The very same elements were used on this gift box, with the exception of the Kraft cardstock. These are so much fun to put together and dress up for the holidays!
Lastly, I created a sympathy card using the Sending Comfort stamp set. Aren't the leaves and berries beautiful? I love the option of layering them over one another and the two-step stamp brings them to life.
I added dimension by cutting a couple of the leaves out, one from vellum, the other stamped and die cut using Honey Nut ink.
Once again, I used the new Text & Texture: Wood Slices stamp set across the bottom, stamping in Autumn Rose ink over Autumn Rose cardstock.

Beautiful examples. The best one is the So Very Merry. I love the background showing through. These dies will enable us to make tags so quick and easy.
