Welcome to the first day of the November Papertrey Ink countdown post! Today we are sharing project made with the new Year of Psalms: November and Little Lift Me Ups stamp sets! You will also see glimpses of the new Mix & Mat: Plaid die set and the Background Basics: Birch stamp set.
The new release will be available for purchase on November 15th at 10 pm ET!
My first card features the new Year of Psalms: November, Background Basics: Birch, and the Mix & Mat: Plaid die set. One of my favorite things about Betsy's Year of Psalms collection, is the wonderful mix of fonts! This month's edition is a beautiful piece of font art, with some little extra images thrown in for even more versatility!
I started by die cutting the frame using the new Mix & Mat: Plaid die set. There are three parts to this die set, but I only used the largest frame die. I then embossed the Year of Psalms: November stamp using white embossing powder. I like to use white when ink blending (and not clear) because I find the white resists the color better.
Using Distress Oxide inks, I sponged on ink over the whole die cut piece and then carefully wiped the ink off of the embossed sentiment using a paper towel. I then stamped the Background Basics: Birch stamp over the ink blended piece using Versamark ink.
The flowers are from a new set called Flower Power. You will see more from this lovely set in a few days! :-)

My next card features the new Little Lift Me Ups stamp set. Encouragement cards are my favorite kind to make and this new set is full of sentiments that will both encourage and inspire!
I started by embossing the sentiment from the Little Lift Me Ups stamp set using black detail embossing powder. I then stamped the Background Basics: Birch stamp using Soft Stone ink.
I die cut the background using the larger stitched die from the Noted: Scalloped A2 die set.
I decorated the bottom by layering on flowers, stamped and die cut from Gran's Garden.
