Hello Sunshine

Hello and welcome to the third day of the Papertrey Ink June Countdown and the first Design Team group post. Today's post is all about the new Hello Sunshine stamp set & the new Sunrise impression plate. We each chose an inspiration piece of some sort that serves as a jumping point for a set of cards.  I'm also helping Nichole showcase today products and I've got a lot to share with you today. Let me get started...

First up, the inspiration piece (found via Pinterest here) which inspired the first two cards...

For my first card, I began by drawing inspiration from the umbrella. First, by choosing to use a color combo of Summer Sunrise, Terracotta Tile, Melon Berry, Soft Stone, Ocean Tides and Aqua Mist.  Which I used when stamping the die cut sun rays.

Second, by arranging the die cut sun rays to form the shape of an umbrella, as if your looking down on one.  Then finished the card off with a sentiment from the We Go Together stamp set. 

The layout of this next card was roughly inspired by the photo above.  I pulled out the clouds and placed the focal point in about the same position as the umbrella.

I began by impressing a Lemon Tart panel using the Sunrise impression plate.  Then stamped the Hello Sunshine sentiment onto a white panel and attached both the a kraft card base.  Finished the card off with a felt circle and a few die cut clouds.

These next few cards were not inspired by the photo above, just pulled them out of my little old brain.  This card began with a sunny topper, which I stamped in Orange Zest and Summer Sunrise inks.

Finished the card off with a few die cut clouds and a sunny sentiment.  All images and the sentiment are from Hello Sunshine.

I love how well these hot air balloons (from Up, Up & Away) pair with the Sunshine impression plate!  I began by impressing a Rustic White panel and then attached it to a Smokey Shadow card base.

Then die cut, stamp (in a color combo of Sweet Blush, Melon Berry & Terracotta Tile) and attach the hot air balloons.  Stamped a Hello Sunshine sentiment and finished the card off with a Smokey Shadow button.

Last, but not least... a little something out of the ordinary.  I took the sun rays and stamped them in a super trendy color combo of Aqua Mist, Lavender Moon, Melon Berry and Lemon Tart.

Stamped them all along the base and finished it all off with a sentiment (from the We Go Together stamp set) to create a simple and modern card.

Well, there you have it. I hope you've enjoyed! Just remember that both the Hello Sunshine stamp set & the new Sunrise impression plate will be available beginning June 15, at Papertrey Ink. Now, be sure to see what the rest of the Papertrey Ink design team has in store for you today...
