Introducing Modern Basics Day Five

*** This is the my second post for today. Be sure to stop by here to view the previous post. ***

Hi there! Today is the final day of the Papertrey Ink Countdown. Which means... Modern Basics will be available for purchase tomorrow! I thank you all for joining me each day of the countdown and for all the kind words you left me. If you do happen to pick up Modern Basics, I hope you will, so kindly, share your projects with me. I would love to see!

I've got a couple more projects, using Modern Basics, to share with you today. Both featuring the border images included in the set...
This one here, is a vintage inspired project. I really wanted to combine some of the vintage images from Postmarks with Modern Basics. I think of these sets as complete opposites (style wise), and I thought it would be a great challenge to combine the two into one card.
Stamped a Rustic White cardstock block with the large and small border images. The large border was stamped in Lavender Moon and the small borders were stamped in Chia Vintage Touch. I then layered a "Thinking of You" postage circle, postage cancellation lines, "Bon Voyage" (these three from Postmarks) and double solid lines (from Label Basics) in Dark Chocolate. Then attached the Rustic White stamped panel onto a kraft card base and embellished with Harvest Gold buttons and twine. For the final vintage touch, I distressed the edge of the kraft card base.

And finally, more of a masculine look. I stamped a white cardstock block with the borders in Spring Moss and Ocean Tides. Above that, I stamped the sentiment in Ocean Tides.

Attached the stamped cardstock block onto an Ocean Tides card base, embellished with a few Ocean Tides buttons and rounded the bottom corner.

Well, that's all I've got for you today. I hope you have enjoyed everything I've shared over the this months Papertrey Ink Release Countdown. Don't forget tomorrow is the big day and Modern Basics will be available for purchase at Papertrey Ink.
