Welcome back to the fourth day of the Papertrey Ink September release countdown posts! For several days leading up to the release we will be sharing with you so many lovely new products perfect for all of your Holiday projects and more!
Today I'm sharing projects created with the Dashing Through the Snow Collection and Glorious Globes: September set. All of the new products being showcased today will be available September 15th at 10 pm ET
My first project was inspired entirely my youngest son Luke! His favorite books are the Little Blue Truck books! Trust me, we have them all! Ha! When I saw his book Little Blue Truck's Halloween (by Jill McElmurry) sitting out on his shelf I thought Betsy's new Dashing Through the Snow: Pickup Truck would be so fitting to create a treat inspired by the famous blue truck!
I've always known Betsy was a genius, but seriously these new packaging die sets are aaaaammmmazing! There are quite a few dies included with each set but I was so surprised at how easy it was to assemble! These assemble quickly enough that they would be great as party favors or place settings!
I added some epoxy dots to the tire centers and headlights for a bit of added dimension. Gah! I just can't stand it...it's such a cute little truck!!
The sentiment on the back of the truck is from the new Dashing Through the Snow Sentiments set.
I don't want to spoil the book for you (wink wink) but the Little Blue Truck ends up dressing up as a sweet little ghost so I decided to decorate the treats to match the story. The ghost and sentiment on the tag are from the previously released Grins & Ghouls stamp set.
My next card features the following new products: Glorious Globes: September, Say it Simply: Holly Jolly die, and Shape Shifters: Oval 3 die set.
For the background, I started by die cutting all three dies from the Shape Shifters: Oval 3 die set from Ocean Tides cardstock. I backed it with some white cardstock so that it would stand out a bit more against the Kraft cardstock base.
For the sentiment, I die cut the Say it Simply: Holly Jolly die three ties and then adhered them on top of the die cut oval. I like the added dimension that extra die cut layers gives. :-)
For embellishment, I added a stamped and die cut wreath from the new Glorious Globes: September stamp set.
