Hey there! Thanks for joining me for day two of the Papertrey Ink October countdown. I'm back today to bring you more of my new set... Snowflake Flurries and from the looks of it, it sounds as if some of you are as excited about this set as I am.
Also, this month, I'm excited to bring you a couple additional items... Think Big Favorites #21 (a stamp set of super-sized sentiments from Bells & Boughs) and Bells & Boughs Bloomers dies (a set of dies that coordinate perfectly with the blooms from Bells & Boughs). More on these two items in a bit.
First, let me get started with a Snowflake Flurries sample...
I wanted to focus on additional uses for the medallion images included in this set, by creating a colorful birthday card.
I stamped the snowflake medallions in a color combo of Hero Arts Orange Soda, Tide Pool and Raspberry Jam inks, onto a cardstock block. Then cut the panel in two and attached to a card base using dimensional adhesive. The sentiment was stamped before hand. Finished the card off with a few fun enamel dots.
Up next, I've pulled out my Bells & Boughs stamp set and paired it with the other two new items I mentioned above.
It sure would have been nice to have these handy new dies when creating these cards last year...

Greetings of the Season Card
CAS with a die cut or two perfectly placed makes for the ideal card in my opinion. You have provided some of the best options I have seen for combining them in unique and versatile ways. Thanks, Maile!

Maile, man oh man I love your use of colour! Your samples are absolutely delicious, particularly the new sample using Bells & Boughs. The white twill ribbon on the white cardstock is just brilliant. I LOVE looking at your cards, whether it's here or in a publication. I see something new and fresh every single time.
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful, Maile! Loving your color combos on each one!!
ReplyDeleteBells and Boughs is one of my all-time favorite sets, so I am thrilled to see dies for the flowers and larger versions of the sentiments. The flowers work year-round, and the dies will make that so much easier. Thanks for reminding us of some of your great cards from before!
ReplyDeleteWow! Loving the colors!
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking Snowflake Flurries will make great fireworks. I love multi-purpose. Thanks.

ReplyDeleteLove your style ~ with or without dies! Great idea to split the design with the sentiment in between. Eager to try that on a card. : )
