WOW, WOW, WOW...thank you all SO much for the sweet comments on my tags yesterday and for your excitement for Flower Fusion #1. It really makes me so incredibly happy knowing that I have created something that not only I love but all of you do as well. I hope that over the next two days I can inspire you just a little more when it comes to creating with this stamp set.
We're half way there! Only two more days until everything you have been seeing will be available for purchase. You can find all the new Papertrey Ink goodies right on their website starting February 15th. So let's start with a little recap of my newest set, Flower Fusion #1:
- 7 images: 2 flowers, 1 stem & leaves, 4 sentiments
- will retail for $5
- has a coordinating flower die (sold separately)
- will be available for purchase starting Feb. 15th
For todays contest Nichole has challenged you all to think BIG and create a large scale tag, card or embellishment. And another BIG prize is up for grabs...you definitely won't want to miss it. Playing along again for the challenge I created my own set of large scale tags using Flower Fusion #1.
I started first by cutting 3 pieces of cardstock into tag shape. For today's peek I used Summer Sunrise, Lavender Moon and Raspberry Fizz for my main colors. I then stamped dots from Polka Dot Basics onto each one in the same ink colors.
Next, I stamped the stem & leave image in Fresh Snow ink over the dots. I stamped the image again onto Ripe Avacado and trimmed each leave out and attached it over the first with dimensional ahdesive. Using the Flower Fusion #1 flower die I created my 3 flowers out of Vintage Cream felt.
Using the medium scallop border die I created these for the bottom of my tags. They were stamped with the gridline background image from Background Basics: Geometrics.
And here they are all together! More springy goodness! :) 'Have a wonderful day!' & 'Miss you!'....both sentiments are included in this new set. Each tag measures 4 X 5.25" so they will fit perfectly into an A2 envelope.
That does it for day 3! Nichole has peeks of Flower Fusion #1 today as well and Dawn and Heather both have more to share using their new sets! Another day packed full of Papertrey goodness!
So happy you stopped by! See you right back here tomorrow with even more to share. Until then, I hope you all have a wonderful Saturday!

Hi Melissa, just wanted you to know that I LOVE your little flower sets. I love that each set will be mixy matchy style and that there are just a few stamps in each set...with dies. So easy peasy to work with. I'm so excited for this series. Great samples this week too!

This little flower set is so cute! Do I have more flowers than I know what to do with? Yes. Am I going to add this and it's die to my collection? Probably. Nice work!
