Back Pocket Basics, World's Greatest & Heart-2-Heart #2 - Day 5

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! :)

  Colorcombo32

Day5_1

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.

 Day5_3

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.

Day5_4

My sentiment, 'sending you lots of love', is from Sending You.  

Day5_5

Next up, Heart-2-Heart #2! The bottom portion of the Orange Zest cardstock was embossed using the Polka Dot Basics ll impression plate.

Day5_7

I popped up my balloons using dimensional adhesive and then added my sentiment, glitter and wrinkle fabric.

Day5_9

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.

Day5_8

More wrinkle fabric, glitter and a few pearls!

Day5_10

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! 

Day5_11

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...

    Bpb_day4_3

    Up first is this card using a few of the images from Back Pocket Basics. There is a small trio of posies included in the set that I stamped around the border of the Summer Sunrise & Hawaiian Shores cardstock. I also used the tiny tag die that is part of the Back Pocket Basics die collection and stamped the coorinating 'sunshine' image on the inside and then attached it along the side of my card. 

    Bpb_day4_2

    I just adore this sweet little sun image. It is 3 different images...a solid sun, a outlined & dotted sun and the little smiley face. To create my cheeks I used one of the solid circles from Tree Tops and stamped it in Sweet Blush. To finish it I stamped 'Sending you a pocketful of sunshine' in Dark Chocolate ink.

    H2h2_day4_7

    'Happy Birthday Sunshine' is up next. I created another sweet sun image and used it along with the pocket from Back Pocket Basics. I stamped SUNSHINE on the bottom part of my card using Hawaiian Shores ink. 

    H2h2_day4_8

    I stamped 'Happy Birthday', from Heart-2-Heart #2, in Pure Poppy ink and then added some red string and a tiny pink flower to finish it.  

    Wg_day4_1

    Next up is World's Greatest. For this card I stamped the large 'WORLD'S Greatest' in Dark Chocolate and then added my tie below that I die cut using the coordinating World's Greatest die.

    Wg_day4_2

    Grandpa is one of the many masculine images in the set. That was stamped in Dark Chocolate and then a Pure Poppy button and twine were added to this one. 

    H2h2_day4_3

    For this one I started by die cutting a piece of white cardstock using the Button Card die. I added a piece of polka dot paper along the side and then added my balloons. Those were all die cut with the Heart-2-Heart #2 balloon die.  

    H2h2_day4_4

    I stamped the 'Happy Birthday' repeatedly on the Summer Sunrise cardstock. A Sweet Blush bow and doily completes this one!

    H2h2_day4_5

    More Heart-2-Heart #2 on this one. The hearts on the balloons were all die cut using the Love Lives Here die collection.

    H2h2_day4_6

    Another Sweet Blush bow, glitter and a few pearls are the finishing touch. 

    H2h2_day4_1

    And last up for today is this little baby card. These balloons fit so well with SO many different stamp images. I love it when you can use different sets together!!

    H2h2_day4_2


    That completes day four for me. I still have so much to share with you tomorrow and will be back in the morning with another post. Still lots to see so be sure to stop by and see what these ladies have to share...

    Wg_day3_8

    Wg_day3_3

    Card #1...how could I resist creating a shirt card with this new tie image. Not only did I use the tie image from World's Greatest but also the pocket from Back Pocket Basics.

    Wg_day3_7

    I used the coordinating tie die and stamped the outlined tie image inside. I also used the coordinating Back Pocket Basics pocket die and stamped the outlined pocket image in that and then added my sentiment across. 'to the best' is a separate image from 'DAD'. A few buttons and posies from Back Pocket Basics were added to complete this first one.

    Wg_day3_10

    Up next is this super clean and simple card. I die cut a few ties and then stamped each one with a different tie image...vertical stripes, outlined and horizontal stripes. 

    Wg_day3_9

    I added another one of the sentiments included in the set, 'Happy Father's Day', and then added a dark chocolate button to complete it.

    That's all I have for today but will be back tomorrow with more to share from all of the sets...Back Pocket Basics, World's Greatest and Heart-2-Heart #2. There is still more to see from these ladies...
