Polka Dot Parade #4 - Day 4

Welcome! Day four of the Papertrey Ink countdown has arrived which means we are one day closer to release night. YAY! I have two more cards for you today using the newest Polka Dot Parade set...one a baby card and one card that could be used for a child. Thought I'd show how this set could be used for more than just baby cards. ;)

Let's start with a birthday card. I kept everything pretty clean and simple for today...not much layering or extra embellishing. I started by stamping my bear in Orange Zest ink and then stamped his paws and belly in Aqua Mist. I mixed a few different sets in with the new Polka Dot Parade #4 set. The balloon is from Heart-2-Heart #2. After stamping the balloon next to my bear I adhered a small die cut bow to the balloon string that is from the Polka Dot Parade #4 die collection.

 'Happy Birthday' is from Think Big Favorites #12 and 'You're one great kid!' is from Way to Go, Kiddo!

Next is a colorful baby card. This card reminds me of The Care Bears from when I was young. Remember those? Again, I started with a white card base and stamped my bears along the side in a variety of colors...Sweet Blush, Hibiscus, Aqua Mist, Hawaiian Shores, Orange Zest and Simple Chartreuse.

In the centers of all of my bears I stamped a tiny heart which can be found in any of the Heart-2-Heart stamp sets. The 'Cute & cuddly' sentiment is from Baby Button Bits and 'BABY' is from Polka Dot Parade #4. And lastly a Hawaiian Shores button was attached!

And that my friends, is another wrap for me! Only one day to go before the release but until then be sure to stop by and say hello to the rest of the PTI gang.

Polka Dot Parade #4 - Day 3

 

**Happy Mother's Day to all of you wonderful Mom's out there!**

 

I'm back...phew! All I can say is thank Goodness for my husband, otherwise I would still be at a loss as to what my computer problem was! :) Thank you all for understanding my missing blog post yesterday and thank you for visiting my Facebook Page to see my projects.

This Papertrey Ink release is quite amazing, isn't it? I'm loving all of the new sets that are coming out. All of the new products you've been seeing, as well as my newest set...Polka Dot Parade #4, will be available starting the 15th on the Papertrey Ink website.

Are you ready for a few more baby cards?! I hope so...let's jump right in...

 

I used the sweet teddy bear and it's coordinating die for this first card. After stamping her in Raspberry Fizz I adhered her to the front of my white cardstock. The bottom of my white cardstock was die cut using the Medium Scallop border die. My sentiment includes four separate words which allow you to create a variety of different sayings for your projects. Here are just a few other sentiments you can create using the words in this set...

• sweet BABY
• sweet little BABY
• new BABY
• welcome BABY
• new little BABY
• hello BABY
• hello little BABY
• hello new BABY

and more!!

I added a doily underneath and attached a strip of Sweet Blush ribbon, Lemon Tart dotted ribbon and a Lemon Tart button before attaching it all to my card front.

This mini 3x4 card features the stroller image from Polka Dot Parade #4 as well as images from a couple other sets of mine that were released awhile back. The sun and clouds are from the Heart-2-Heart #6 stamp set and die collection and the grass, flowers and sentiment are from Hanging Out.

Up next is another girly baby card. I started by die cutting a tag using the Tag Sale #1 die and then stamped the word 'BABY' down the front using Lemon Tart, Sweet Blush and Raspberry Fizz ink.  

I die cut my bear and stamped her in Lemon Tart and then stamped her belly and paws in Raspberry Fizz. Love those separate belly and paw pieces!! I added stitching along the Raspberry Fizz strips using the Sew Simple Borders Mini stamp set. And lastly, I added a few layered flowers...the white and pink ones are by Prima and the yellow one was die cut out of Harvest Gold felt using the Heart-2-Heart #7 die.

That wraps up day three for me. Here are a few other stops for you that you will not want to miss...

Introducing Polka Dot Parade #4 - Day 1

Hello everyone! It's been quite awhile since I've seen you all...welcome! I have been such a bad blogger lately but I am back for this months Papertrey Ink countdown and have been looking forward to sharing my newest stamp set with you. Polka Dot Parade #4 is this months set and it features the polka dot word 'BABY' and a few sweet baby images. Here are the details ...

Polka Dot Parade #4:

• features 12 images
• will retail for $5
• will be available for purchase starting May 15th on the Papertrey Ink website
• has coordinating dies  

I used traditional baby colors for todays cards...Sweet Blush, Lemon Tart, Aqua Mist and Spring Moss. I started by stamping the teddy bear image (soooo love this little guy) across the bottom portion of my card using the colors I just mentioned. Next, I adhered a piece of Bitty Dot Basics patterned paper across the top and a strip of Aqua Mist ribbon. I then die cut the frame image from the My Mother, My Friend die collection and stamped my sentiment. There are a variety of different sentiments you will be able to create with this little set. I'll be showing you more of those over the next four days. To finish my first card off I die cut a couple of flowers using the Heart-2-Heart #7 die collection and stamped each one with thier coordinating Heart-2-Heart #7 stamp set. I adhered those to either side of my frame and then added Lemon Tart buttons to their centers.

Lots and lots of polka dots for you on card #2. I started with my white cardstock and stamped 'BABY' multiple times down the front using the same colors as on card #1. Above 'BABY' I stamped the word 'sweet'...included in the PDP #4 set. Next, I die cut a scalloped border using the medium scallop border die. That was stamped using the Polka Dot Basics stamp set and then adhered across my card front. I added a strip of pink rick rack and crocheted flowers that I had on hand and a couple of strips of Lemon Tart Satin Dot ribbon to complete it.

That is all I have for today but both Nichole and Betsy will be sharing projects with you using this new set. You won't want to miss it!

Also, these ladies have lots to share as well...

Polka Dot Parade #3 - Day 4

Happy Saturday! I'm back with a fun retro card to share with you today using the new Polka Dot Parade set.

*Polka Dot Parade #3 along with all of the other new products will be available for purchase starting April 15th on the Papertrey Ink website.*

 

I've mixed a few sets up with the PDP #3 set to create this card. I cut 6 - 1/2" strips of cardstock out of the following colors...Pure Poppy, Orange Zest, Summer Sunrise, Simply Chartreuse, Hawaiian Shores and Plum Pudding. I adhered those on the front of my card to create my 'rainbow' effect. Next, I stamped RELAX in Smokey Shadow and 'It's your day!' just below it in the same color. 'Love' is from Heart-2-Heart #11 and so is the heart inside the tv. I die cut my tv using the coordinating die collection and then stamped it using Simply Chartreuse ink. To finish my card off I added a strip of glitter along the top and voila!!  

I love all of the positive feedback I've been getting about this little $5 set. Makes me happy, happy, happy! :) Thanks everyone! I hope you all have a fabulous day...thanks again for stopping in!

Polka Dot Parade #2 - Day 4

Hi there! I apologize for the delay in my posting. I have a few cards to share using Polka Dot Parade #2 today. I'll have more projects for you tomorrow using Background Basics: Birthday Fun. Let's get right to the cards...

**Both of these new sets will be available starting March 15th on the Papertrey Ink website.**

Todays cards are all HELLO cards...you can never have enough of those. I started by stamping a bunch of 1" strips using the flower images in Polka Dot Parade #2 as well as the polka dots from the Polka Dot Basics stamp set. All of my cards measures 3.5 x 5 so these 1" strips layer perfectly, one right over the other. I added a little embellishment to each card. On this first one I die cut the butterfly from Love Lives Here and then added a die cut flower from Polka Dot Parade #2.  The leaves are from Heart-2-Heart #7.

The embellishement on this next card was created with a flower die from the Beautiful Blooms ll #2 die collection as well as the flower die from Flower Fusion #10. The polka dot brad is one I've had in my stash for quite some time...I think it's from Making Memories. Again, the leaves are from Heart-2-Heart #7.  

And on this one more flowers and leaves from Heart-2-Heart #7. I also added a white Rickrack strip to the top of each card.

And here is the last card for today. I cut 3 strips of cardstock...Raspberry Fizz, Melon Berry and Spring Moss. Each strip was stamped with the HELLO stamp in it's matching color. I also stamped each one with a polka dot flower. The leaves are from Everyday Button Bits. And lastly, I added 'How are you?' ...from Heart-2-Heart #4.

I'll see you all tomorrow for one last post before the big release. Here is the rest of the design team and links to their projects...

Background Basics: Birthday Fun & Polka Dot Parade #2 - Day 3

 

Hello there! So glad you are joining me for day 3 of this months Papertrey Ink countdown. I have a few more simple cards for you today using both of my new sets...Background Basics: Birthday Fun and Polka Dot Parade #2.

 

**Both of these new sets will be available starting March 15th on the Papertrey Ink website.**

 

Let's jump right in...

So for today I am using the same layout on each card as well as all the same colors...Hibiscus, Orange Zest, Lavender Moon and Ripe Avocado. For card #1 I mixed the polka dot flowers from Polka Dot Parade #2 with the flowers from Heart-2-Heart #7 and created my own floral design on my cardstock. The frame that my sentiment is stamped on was die cut from the My Mother, My Friend die collection. I added a single die cut flower to the side of my frame and a few rhinestones to finish it off.  

Up next is a sweet little card perfect for a little princess in your life. I mixed the images from Little Princess with the stems and polka dot flowers from Polka Dot Parade #2 to create this layout. For the tops of the towers and the castle door I stamped the outlined castle image onto a piece of Hibiscus cardstock and then trimmed each section out and adhered them over my stamped castle. This card just makes me smile! :)

I created a little cluster of flowers on this next card using all three sizes of the Polka Dot Parade #2 images. The leaves are from Heart-2-Heart #7 and were stamped in Ripe Avocado. The sentiment 'You are beautiful inside and out' is from Simply You.

And lastly for today is a card created with the Background Basics: Birthday Fun set. I started by stamping my birthday words background along the bottom of my white cardstock in Hibiscus ink. Next, I stamped a row of gifts using the trio gift image. Again, I used the frame from My Mother, My Friend die collection and stamped my sentiment, from All About You.  For the gifts around my sentiment I stamped the trio of gifts 3 times using all 3 colors of ink. I then cut one of the gifts out of each one and adhered them around my frame.

Here are a few more stops for you today that you will not want to miss...

Introducing Background Basics: Birthday Fun & Polka Dot Parade #2

 

Hi everyone! I hope you are all doing well. Here we are for the March Papertrey Ink countdown. I have two sets to share with you for this months release...Polka Dot Parade #2 and a new background set, Background Basics: Birthday Fun.

 Let's start with the new birthday set... 

Background Basics: Birthday Fun:

• features 2 background strips and 2 background blocks
• will retail for $18
• will be available for purchase starting March 15th on the Papertrey Ink website

This birthday card features one of the background blocks in the Background Basics: Birthday Fun set. I stamped my 3 gifts one on top of the other using Sweet Blush, Pure Poppy, Orange Zest, Summer Sunrise, Aqua Mist and Simply Chartreuse.

 

 The sentiment is from Think Big Favorites #12.

 

 

Polka Dot Parade #2:

• features 8 images - 1 stem/leave image, 1 cluster of outlined flowers, 3 polka dot flowers, 2 sentiments including a large polka dot 'HELLO', 1 butterfly
• will retail for $5
• will be available for purchase starting March 15th on the Papertrey Ink website
• has coordinating dies 

Here is a sweet hello card featuring the polka dot posies in the new Polka Dot Parade #2 set. The flower stems/leaves are one image, making it super quick and easy when creating. There is also a cluster of four outlined flowers in the set that stamp perfectly above the stems. I didn't use that image on this card but instead just used the individual polka dot flowers.  

'Just wanted to say' is from Heart-2-Heart #4. A strip of lace and a Pure Poppy button complete this.

I created a cute one layer card using a few different sets on this next card. I stamped my stems and flowers from Polka Dot Parade #2 across the front of my card. I then pulled out Hanging Out and stamped the grass image beneath the flowers. The sun is from Back Pocket Basics and then little bird is from Tweet Talk.

'Sending you a happy' is one of the sentiments and is separate from 'HELLO'.

Here is a bright and cheery card that was stamped with all three of the polka dot flowers in the set. I also used images from Everyday Button Bits for the leaves.




I added a strip of Hawaiian Shores cardstock, that I had stamped with the Sew Simple Borders mini set, and a few buttons.  'Sweet friend' is from Heart-2-Heart #4.

 

For this last card I stamped the tree trunk from Tree Tops onto the front of my card and then used one of the polka dot flowers from PDP #2 to create my tree. I stamped two tiny butterflies and added a bit of twine to complete it.

That completes day 1 for me. Nichole, Betsy and Erin all have projects to share with you using both of my new sets. Plus, these ladies all have projects for you using their new products...

Hello love

Hope you are all doing well. It's been a few days since I've shared anything and thought I'd end the week with a little Valentine's card. February is here which means we are one step close to Valentine's Day and one step closer to spring! YEAH! 

To begin I started by adhering a piece of Damask Designs patterned paper to the bottom portion of my card front. Next, I added a strip of Aqua Mist cardstock that was stamped with the row of hearts from Heart-2-Heart #11. For the flower, I started by die cutting two of the flowers from the Beautiful Blooms ll #1 die collection. I stamped the larger one using the Background Basics: Inspiration stamp set. Those flowers were layered together and then I added a circle to the center that was stamped with images from Heart-2-Heart #12. I used the Flower Fusion stem die as well as one of the leave images from Heart-2-Heart #7 for my flower stem. And last but not least...the sentiment. 'Hello' is from Heart-2-Heart #4 and 'Love' is from Heart-2-Heart #11.

I know... A LOT of different sets were used BUT that is what I love about these mini sets, like Flower Fusion and Heart-2-Heart, they can all be mixed together giving you soooo many possibilities when creating! :)

Don't forget that the Papertrey Ink anniversary festivities will be starting on Tuesday, February 5th. So many fun and exciting things will be happening...you won't want to miss it!

Have a wonderful day!

~Melissa

Keep smiling posies

Happy Friday everyone! I have a sweet button posie card to share with you all today!

I started by covering my card base with a couple of different pieces of My Mind's Eye patterned paper. Next, I added my doily and my sentiment that was stamped on a Double Ended Banner die. I die cut a strip of hearts out of the Heart Border die and then attached it along the side of my card. For my flowers I die cut two of the flower stems from the Heart-2-Heart #12 die collection and then added two 'posies' that were die cut using the Buttoned Up #1 die collection. The button dies were stamped with a couple of images from the Button Up stamp set.  

And that's all I have for you today! I'm hoping and planning on being a much better blogger than I have in the past. I have a really bad habit of only blogging during Papertrey Ink release time but I'm working on changing that. Hoping to liven things up a bit around here! :)

Thank you for stopping by...

Love you

Hi everyone! Thanks for popping in today...  

I'm mixing a couple of sets in with the Heart-2-Heart #12 set today. And you'll notice my color combo...yes, pretty much the same colors from yesterday and yes, tomorrows card will be the same colors as well. I am a bit addicted to this color combo. What can I say...they just work so well together!

The patterned paper you see is from My Mind's Eye. I stamped the 'L VE' image, from Heart-2-Heart #11, in Hawaiian Shores ink onto my white cardstock. I then filled in the 'O' with a die cut flower image from Heart-2-Heart #12. I stamped my stem in Spring Moss. The 'You', from Simply You, was stamped in Sweet Blush.

To add a few finishing touches I added two strips of Pure Poppy cardstock along the bottom and on the top I added a Double Ended Banner die that was die cut out of Sweet Blush cardstock.

I hope you all enjoy your day!
