Hello, friends! Are you ready for the sweetest, most irresistible, new Papertrey Ink products? My mind has been blown this month! My first card uses the darling, new Fawn & Flora stamp set....I am totally enamored with this set!
The sentiments are so creative and endearing....they make the stamp set even more special. And...they fit perfectly on the Scalloped Tags.
My sweet fawn was stamped on Sweet Blush cardstock using Fine Linen ink as the base layer and Saffron Spice for the darker, detailed areas. I used Olive Twist for the eyes and nose. The flowers were stamped in Melon Berry, Berry Sorbet, Autumn Rose, Spring Moss, and Ocean Tides.
I used the Mix & Mat: Plaid die, cut from Autumn Rose. I used the rectangle die from the new Folded Pocket Tag die to cut a window in the center of my die and backed it with a die cut, cut using the Monthly Moments: Journal Card 8 die, layered over Mint Julep Bitty Big paper. I frosted the edges of my Mix & Mat: Plaid die using melted embossing enamel. To finish, I added a few die cut snowflakes cut using the
My next card uses the beautiful, new Pleasing Envelopes stamp set....it's beautiful! The flowers across the bottom of my card are from this set, stamping in Berry Sorbet, Melon Berry, Autumn Rose, Mint Julep, Spring Moss, Prairie Grass, Classic Kraft, and Ocean Tides.
I created the focal point for me card using the Shape Shifters: Circle 3 die and Sweet Blush cardstock. The tiny, snowy dots stamped near the top are from the Pleasing Envelopes stamp set as well. I then layered on snowflakes cut using the Snowfall Style 2 dies and Silver White Wishes dies, cutting them from Bitty Big Mint Julep and Stamper's Select White, and glitter cardstock.
The center of my snowflakes were embellished using stamps and dies from the new Sending Joy stamp set, stamping in Spring Moss, Prairie Grass, and Autumn Rose. In the background you can see my coordinating envelope, stamped using only images from the Pleasing Envelopes stamp set.
There's so much to love about Pleasing Envelopes....this one will be getting a workout, not only for the holidays, but year-round.
Dressing up envelopes is such a special way to make your holiday cards spectacular!
Lastly, I created a gift card holder using the new Sending Joy stamp set and coordinating dies along with the new Folded Pocket Tag Die....this thing is so much fun!
The set comes with an oval and rectangular window. Before die cutting my oval window from my tag, I stamped my cute gingham border in Pure Poppy across the bottom. I then assembled my tag and embellished using images from the Sending Joy stamp set.
I created a coordinating tag that slips inside the gift card holder, covering up the gift card. Once again, I used the Scalloped Tag die for this.
Inside I added some Bitty Big: Spring Moss paper, to show contrast through the window.
Most defnitely, a bunch of fun and playful products this month....available on October 15th, 10PM EST.
Enjoy your day!
