Day 5 is here and I have one final post for you before the big Papertrey Ink release. Before I start I just want to thank you for visiting me each day and for your sweet comments. I appreciate it so very much! Now, for today I have just one card to share using the final set in the Heart-2-Heart series....Heart-2-Heart #12. If some of you aren't familiar with this series here is a link the past eleven sets that have been released...

Do you have a favorite?
I mentioned in one of my first posts for the countdown this month that the circles in this set work well with many of the larger Papertrey floral sets. I thought I'd pull out another floral set and show you how they work together. I used Sending You on my previous projects and today I'm using All About You.
I started with a piece of white cardstock and stamped the lined image from Journaling Lines in Aqua Mist ink. Next, I started stamping my flowers. I stamped the larger outlined flower, from All About You, and then filled in around them using the smaller flowers from that set as well as flowers from Flower Fusion #7. I then went back and colored the outlined flowers in with Copics. After they were colored I stamped the inside of the larger flowers with the circle/flower images from Heart-2-Heart #12.
I stamped the flower stems, from Heart-2-Heart #12, in Simply Chartreuse. The sentiment is from Think Big Favorites #12. To finish it off before adhering it to my card front I went around the edges and gently roughed it up a bit.
And that is a wrap for me for this release! I hope you have enjoyed all of the projects I have shared with you over the past year using the sets in this series. I'm a bit sad to see it come to an end as I always LOVE these little $5 sets that pack a punch. BUT...a new Papertrey Ink year will be starting next month and I am very excited to see what the next year has in store.
As always, these ladies have some wonderful things to share with you so be sure to pop on over and say hello...
Have a fabulous day!!
~Melissa
HAPPY BIRTHDAY

This was a great series. I'm kind of sad to see it end as well. I enjoy the "series" sets because it is fun (and easy) to combine across the sets.

Melissa,
Your Heart to Heart sets along with Heather's were the sets that I decided to add to my supplies!
Hard to believe that we are at the end. You ask which were favourites and when I sat down to think about that, have to say in all honesty, they are ALL favourites, to pick one over the others, would hurt their feelings!!!
Thanks for a great year :-)

This card is absolutely beautiful! The color combination is perfect and I love the All About You flowers. No favorite among the current sets - I love them all!

They are all very sweet... if I *had* to pick one, I think it would be #6... something about the smile on the sun gets me every time. Thank you for all the inspiration!

It's been such a cute series, Melissa. My favorite is the H2H #4 - the telephone. It's such a cute set to send Hello cards to friends.

I have too many favorites! #3,5,6,7,9,10 ... But if I had to pick just one, it would be #9 with the sweet pair of birds, and I've even used the cake upside-down for a flower pot. Thanks for a fun and versatile series!

Beautiful card today Melissa, I love the colour palette! It has been a wonerful series and i can't pick a favourite, but I will say that I use Heart-2-Heart #1 over and over again--so versatile!

i'm sorry to see this series end. they are all so creative & versatile. if i had to choose a favorite though it would be the telephone, as i used to be a telephone operator a long time ago. the $5 price tag is a big help too. i use your sets so often. the designs & the sentiments are just perfect.

Mel, this has been a great stamp series. I, too, am sorry to see it end. Here's hoping that you have something equally clever and versatile up your sleeve for the next year. Love your work!
