Congratulations on Your New Baby Girl

Hey there! I'm back today for the final day of the December Papertrey Ink countdown. Everything you've seen peeks of will be available tomorrow! 

And of course I bring you one more sample of Swan'sational, one of my new design for this month.

This set is perfect for baby cards. I used twin facing swans, placed them next to one another, and then nestle a sweet little baby just below the pair. The parents were made using the swan die, and orange marker (for the beak) and the small black accent stamp.

If you need a card to celebrate a new baby girl, use a pink ribbon.  If it's for a newborn boy, use a blue ribbon. 

Well, that finishes up this months release for me. Just remember... all that you've seen today will be available for purchase through Papertrey Ink, beginning December 15th. 

Now, be sure to visit the Papertrey Ink blog for more crafty goodness.

With Love Card Duo

Hi folks! Welcome to day four of the December Papertrey Ink countdown.

Today I've got another look at Splits: With Love for ya. 

I've thought a little out of the box when it came to putting these cards together. 

Here's the frame stamped in a not so frame way. Does that even make sense?! Anyways, I've used only a portion of the stamp along the edge of a white cardstock panel.  For reference, you can see the frame image in its original formation on this sample here. 

I inked the frame stamp in sweet blush, pure poppy, and raspberry fizz. Then carefully stamped only the blooms along the edge. Stamped the sentiment near the corner and finished the card off with a few clear rhinestones. 

Included in this stamp set are a few extra images. 

This one-layer card was stamped using the tiny triangle trio stamp, a simple image that can be stamped repeatedly to create a very unique pattern. Such as the one here, placed around the sentiment. 

That's it from me today! Just remember... the Splits: With Love stamp set and its coordinating dies will be available for purchase through Papertrey Ink, beginning December 15th.

Swan Birthday Wishes

Hello and welcome to day three of the December Papertrey Ink countdown!   

I'm back today with another sample using the new Swan'sational. Here I've created a swan scene using only two images from this set. 

The grouping of swans were stamped in soft stone and then a row of cattails were stamped along the bottom edge in simply chartreuse. The sentiment was inked and stamped in scarlet jewel to complete this simple one-layer wonder card. 

Well, there's a quick look at Swan'sational. Just remember... Just remember... everything showcased today will be available for purchase through Papertrey Ink, beginning December 15th.

Introducing Splits: With Love

Hi there! Welcome to day two of the December Papertrey Ink countdown.

For this months release I bring you a couple new additions to my Stamping Simply lineup.  Today I have a peek at second one... Splits: With Love. Take a look...

These scribbled florals can be colored in and even accented with the included leaves. Tuck the "With Love" sentiment into the frame, mix and match with other Splits sets, or use a sentiment from another set for more options.

For this one-layer wonder I inked up this sweet frame in three colors... summer sunrise, scarlet jewel, and plum pudding. The leaves were added using the color simply chartreuse. A small silky bow is the perfect touch to give this simple card a little something extra, I easily formed the bow and attached it with a touch of adhesive. 

Well, there's a quick look from me at the latest from my Stamping Simply lineup. Just remember... everything showcased today will be available for purchase through Papertrey Ink, beginning December 15th.

Introducing Swan'sational

Hi there! Welcome to day one of the December Papertrey Ink countdown.

For this months release I bring you a couple new additions to my Stamping Simply lineup.  Today I have a peek at one of them... Swan'sational. Take a look...

I am just loving how this set turned out. These swans and all the bits and pieces to go along with them are so much fun to play with.  

One of those bits and pieces I spoke of is this water ripple stamp. Use it alone just under your elegant bird, or stamp a pretty pattern like the one here. I used the colors limeade ice, enchanted evening, and hawaiian shores. I also added a touch to black to the base of these dark grey swans, using the rock and roll technique with smokey shadow and true black inks. 

Well, there's a quick look from me at the latest from my Stamping Simply lineup. Just remember... everything showcased today will be available for purchase through Papertrey Ink, beginning December 15th. 

Thanks so much for stopping by!
