Happy Wednesday everyone! Welcome to the final day of this months Papertrey Ink countdown. All of the new stamp sets and products you have been seeing will be available for purchase on the Papertrey Ink website starting at 10PM on the 15th.
I have a few more projects to share with you today using my three latest sets...Back Pocket Basics, World's Greatest and Heart-2-Heart #2.
I have another bright and cheery color combo for you today. Can you tell I'm ready for summer! :)
To start todays projects I die cut a bunch of different images from all three sets. I always die cut extras and whatever I don't use will be added to my stash of images from previous releases.
For card #1 I stamped the large double heart image that is part of Back Pocket Basics onto Raspberry Fizz cardstock. I added glitter to my Summer Sunrise hearts and attached those with dimensional adhesive and then added my other elements. A rick rack border strip, Summer Sunrise ribbon and the 'love' tag, which is part of Back Pocket Basics. The bottom part of my card was stamped with Background Basics: Geometrics.
My sentiment, 'sending you lots of love', is from Sending You.
Next up, Heart-2-Heart #2! The bottom portion of the Orange Zest cardstock was embossed using the Polka Dot Basics ll impression plate.
I popped up my balloons using dimensional adhesive and then added my sentiment, glitter and wrinkle fabric.
Here is another card featuring some of the images in Back Pocket Basics. I used the trio of small flowers and stamped them along the bottom of my Ripe Acocado cardtock and then added my other pieces.
More wrinkle fabric, glitter and a few pearls!
And last up for today is a super simple card using the tie images in World's Greatest. No pink on this one! There are 7 ties total in this set. This particular card uses the circles, stars and DAD!
I used the Polka Dot Basics ll impression plate once again and also added the negative strip from the rick rack border I created on the first card. Lastly, I added my sentiment and some twine.
Well, that does it for me! Thanks so much for sharing these past five days with me. I hope you've enjoyed the projects and hope that I have been able to give you a little creative inpiration. There are a few more stops for you that you won't want to miss...
Have a fabulous day! See you all again real soon! :)
