Ink to Paper Release Countdown - Day 1

Hey there, friends! It's time to kick off this month's Ink to Paper Release Countdown. We have so many exciting new products to share with you over the next four days. You won't want to miss it!

Up first is a new set that I designed, Dandelion Wishes! It is filled with super fun dandelion images, along with sentiments that are cute and sweet and are the perfect companion to the flowers. There is also a mini set, Dandelion Wishes Sentiments, that includes even more of those fun sentiments. 

Bright, fun and fresh is what I wanted to create for my first card. There are three different size dandelions in the set and each of those include an outlined image along with a solid image. The set also includes individual dots so you can fill in the dandelion like I did on my first card.

I chose a variety of bright, cheery colors and just went to town filling them all in. Behind my dandelions is an oval that I die-cut using the Geometrix: Oval Die.

Love, Kisses & Dandelion Wishes was stamped on True Black and attached with dimensional foam. To finish my card, I added a clear sequins to the center of each of the dandelions.

My second card isn't as bright, but it still is cheery! I started by adding Bitty Big: Limeade Ice paper to my card front. I set that aside and then cut a piece of white cardstock down to 4 x 5.25 and stamped my dandelion stem right in the center. 

I used the coordinating Dandelion Wishes Die Collection and stamped and die-cut two of the dandelions. The larger was stamped in Limeade Ice and the smaller in Aqua Mist. Those were layered over one another and then attached above the stem. Along the bottom I added a strip of Aqua Mist that I had stamped with the smallest dandelion in the set. Just above that I added my sentiment … Sending you special birthday wishes!

A few colorful sequins complete my second card!

I have more bright and colorful for card #3. I did lots of stamping and die-cutting using a variety of colors. I'll list them all below in my supply list!

After they were all attached to my card front, I went over each one and filled each of the circles in with white Nuvo Drops. It's a little hard to see from the photos, but it adds that extra little WOW factor to the dandelions.

I stamped the large WISH and added Make A just above before attaching a few colorful sequins to complete it.

My final card for today features a mix of three new products … Simply Sentiments, Banner Builder: Basics and Watercolor Textures: Abstract!

Watercolor Textures: Abstract is such a fun little set to have on hand. Perfect for creating your own unique backgrounds. I chose the X's in the set to work with and stamped three rows full of color. I then chose the small rectangle banner from the Banner Builder: Basics Die Collection to stamp the sentiment, from Simply Sentiments, on.

That wraps up Day 1 for me. Pop on over to the Ink to Paper Blog to see more beautiful projects from the rest of the ladies!

Have a wonderful day!
