Just Give Me Stamps...

More September Release - Day 5

Welcome to the fifth and final day of inspiration posts featuring the brand new September Papertrey Ink release!

 Today I'm sharing two cards featuring the Silver White Winters set and Wine Bottle Tag #2 die set.

 

I LOVE snowflake images and couldn't be happier about the new Silver White Winters set.  I just adore the large, intricate flakes so much!  I also love the coordinating die set! 

 

 I stamped the flakes in Kraft, Tropical Teal, and Enchanted Evening.  After they were stamped, I used a water brush to smudge the images and then splattered on some coordinating ink.

I embossed the sentiment onto Kraft cardstock using gold detail embossing powder.  For embellishment, I tied on some string and adhered a few sequins.

 

 

 
My second card again features the Silver White Winters stamp and die set along with the brand new Wine Bottle Tag #2 die set. 

 

 I stamped the smallest snowflake onto the Aqua Mist background layer using Aqua Mist ink.  For the focal image, I die cut the Wine Bottle Tag #2 die and then cut off the top.  I layered a die cut snowflake on top, along with the embossed flourish.  I embossed the sentiment onto one of the included banner dies with a sentiment from the new Keep It Simple: Winter Wishes.

More September Release - Day 4

Welcome to the fourth day of inspiration posts featuring the brand new September Papertrey Ink release! There are so many amazing products just released, and for five days the design team will be sharing a lot of inspiration featuring the new items! 

 Today I'm sharing a card that I created using the new Quoted: Favorite Things stamp set.

The Quoted collection of stamps are wonderful!  They are great sentiments, usually large enough to fill up a card front, come with separate sentiments (which is great for stamping in different colors), and are crazy inexpensive!!  You can't get better than that!  :-)

I embossed the sentiment onto watercolor paper and then added a watercolor wash over the sentiment.  Again, I chose colors that were a bit non traditional Christmas ones.  Normally, I'm all about the red and green but this year I've been loving the different combos!

 I die cut the watercolored panel and the white layer under it using the Noted: Scalloped A2 die set.  For embellishment, I die cut and stamped a couple of the smallest sprigs from the Beautiful Berries: Winter set.

More September Release - Day 3

Welcome to the third day of inspiration posts featuring the brand new September Papertrey Ink release! There are so many amazing products just released, and for five days the design team will be sharing a lot of inspiration featuring the new items! 

 Today I'm sharing a card that I created using the new Beautiful Berries: Winter stamp set.

I am such a fan of the whole Beautiful Berries collection and the new Winter edition does not disappoint!  I am also a fan of wreaths...just love them, especially around the holidays!  So, I couldn't help but create a wreath using a couple of the smaller branches.  :-)

I thought the berries would be lovely stamped in pinks.  Non traditional Christmas colors, but still lovely. 

I mounted the wreath on a white cardstock layer die cut using the Mix & Mat: Berry Boughs die set.

More September Release - Day 2

Welcome to the first day of inspiration posts featuring the brand new September Papertrey Ink release! There are so many amazing products just released, and for five days the design team will be sharing a lot of inspiration featuring the new items! 

 Today I'm sharing cards created with the new Gift Card Cozy Collection.

 

I'm so excited about the new Gift Card Cozy Collection!  Lizzie has designed a whole set of products that are perfect on their own but also are amazing together!  The Gift Card Cozy Die is one of my favorites as I give a lot of gift cards for gifts.  I also think this is the perfect size to package up little lunchbox notes to tuck into my kids' bags!

I stamped the "ribbon" images from the Gift Card Cozy Sentiments stamp set.  I also added a stamped and die cut wreath (from the new Berry Wreath stamps and dies). 

I stamped and decorated the backs of the gift card holders using the Berry Wreath and Ways to Say: Just For You stamp sets.  I embellished with a button from the Holiday Mix Vintage Button Collection.

More September Release - Day 1

Welcome to the first day of inspiration posts featuring the brand new September Papertrey Ink release! There are so many amazing products just released, and for five days the design team will be sharing a lot of inspiration featuring the new items! 

 Today I'm sharing cards created with the new Brilliant Baubles and Very Merry stamp sets.

My first card features the new Brilliant Baubles stamp set, coordinating Brilliant Baubles die set, and Mix & Mat: Berry Boughs die set. 

I chose colors (black and white) that would add to the modern feel that I wanted to achieve with my card.  I die cut two of the dies from the Mix & Mat: Berry Boughs die set out of True Black cardstock.

I stamped and die cut the ornament and included foliage to create the focal image.  I embossed the sentiment on a strip of vellum and layered it across the ornament.

 

 

My next card again features the Brilliant Baubles stamp set (along with the coordinating Brilliant Baubles die set) but this time using very non-traditional Christmas colors.

I started by creating a three color watercolor wash for the background.  I then stamped the ornaments in coordinating colors and then die cut them.

I embellished with some stamped and die cut foliage (included in the Brilliant Baubles stamp set). 

 

 

My third card features the new Very Merry stamp set and coordinating Very Merry die set.

This is such a fun set that can be changed up in so many different ways!  I love that the tree is actually made up of three different stamps, making it easy to create a multi colored image!

I added the tree and sentiment to a white layer that I die cut using the outer border of the Mix & Mat: Berry Boughs die set.  I lightly sponged some  Aqua Mist ink onto the middle to give it a frosty look.  I also added some white, chunky glitter to the edges of the die cut layer.

I mounted the white layer onto a Dark Chocolate card base that I had sponged Dark Chocolate ink onto using the Woodgrain stencil.
