It's Day 2 of Papertrey Ink's December release and love is in the air! My first card today uses the new Love in Bloom stamp set and coordinating dies.
I just love the sweet heart created from flowers and the darling font used on the sentiments. I stamped my heart in Autumn Rose, Lilac Grace, Pale Peony, Hibiscus Burst, Spring Moss, and Prairie Grass. I layered it over a white circle cut using the new Nesting Basics: Circles and Nesting Basics: Pierced Circles dies.
I used the new Shape Shifters: Oval 4 dies in the background, stamping my sentiment across the bottom using Autumn Rose ink. Across the top I used Chicken Scratch Gingham paper to bring in pattern and dimension. My tiny, glittered hearts were cut using the new Bear Hugs dies.
Next, I created a tag using the new Perfect Match stamp set and dies. This set is so much fun and perfect for sweet, Valentine's Day cards and treats.
I used the new Text & Texture: Bokeh stamp set on my Melon Berry cardstock base that was adhered to a tag cut using the Tag Sale: Quilted die and Chicken Scratch Gingham.
I stamped my sentiments from the Perfect Match stamp set on a die cut Tremendous Tag and at the bottom of my tag, I used the fun Nesting Basics: Circles and Pierced Circles once again to create a focal point for my matches. So much fun!
All of the new supplies will be available for sale on December 15ht, 10PM EST. More coming tomorrow!

These cards are delightful. This Valentine themed release promises to be wonderful for creating love themed cards and projects. The floral hearts are so lovely and the "lit matches" so creative! tfs

Hi, Melissa,
Is there a tutorial somewhere that shows how to make your "junk" bows? Also, what sewing machine would you recommend for a beginner with no experience who wants to sew on paper?
Thanks so much!

Hi Michelle! Your heart card is BEAUTIFUL! I couldn't wait to see your Valentlne's designs. Soft and PRETTY, and no one makes a prettier bow! Your quilted tag is perfection! I really, really love it! The way you used the circle dies for your focal point on the quilted die, backed by chicken scratch paper... well like I said, it's just perfect. I want to take this opportunity to thank you for an amazing year. I'm VERY grateful! I hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas! May God bless you! :)
