PTI Release in Review

I had a ton of fun with this, my first Papertrey Ink release.  TONS.  I've had people ask me which set is my favorite?  That's a hard question.  ALL of it.  So here is a photo-filled post so you can see what I have been up to!  :)  All of these super fun stamps and dies will be available soon!  As in today.  Well, today here in Kansas.  I am going to add a supply list after each card too.  Hope that helps!

OK here is my first card using Wet Paint and Polka Dot Basics III.  I used a Berry Sorbet base and then stamped a Pure Poppy dot on the tops of some of the polkas.  Then I added in a vellum note under the top note.  I had a wooden clothespin and colored it black with a marker...

Here is a little Gatsby Glamour and Background Basics: Art Deco.  I stamped the card base with the Art Deco set.  Then I heat embossed the sentiment onto vellum.  I added in another layer of vellum to make the background look a little lighter.  Then I glued it all down edges of the Deco Cover plate....

This CAS card is from Monthly Moments: March.  I used the "date" stamp to make the rainbow, after heat embossing the "hello" with clear powder.  Easy and FUN!

Journal Accessories is such a fun new set.  The stamps are big enough to make a good size piece of paper.  I made one up and then added in some flowers from Just Smile, as well as the arrow die from Monthly Moments: March.

Obviously, this plant is not a succulent or a cactus.  I will tell you that I scoured my little town for these things coming up with nothing.  So it's a plant.  But you get the idea!  I added in some burlap and some Ripe Avocado Saddle Stitch to decorate this fun little plant.  To top it off, I added in a simple little tag using the new Putting Down Roots set.  I think it would make a fun welcome gift, for sure!
