Papertrey Ink June Release Countdown - Day 2

Welcome back for Day 2 of this month's Papertrey Ink Release Countdown. Today, we have more ocean love for you. There are three new products we are introducing … Text & Texture: Ocean, Reef Builder Dies and Shape Shifters: Oval 2. 

**All of the new products will be available June 15th at 10pm EST!**

I started by stamping the Text & Texture: Ocean background stamp on three different colors of card-stock … Aqua Mist, Hawaiian Shores and Tropical Teal. Next, I die-cut a piece of white cardstock using the Shape Shifters: Oval 2 die collection. I also used the same die to die-cut the three pieces of cardstock that I had stamped with the Text & Texture: Ocean background. I then filled in the spaces in the white oval with the pieces from the stamped ocean ones. 

After attaching the oval to my Aqua Mist card base, I stamped and die-cut the seahorse and fish from the new Salt Air: Fauna set that was introduced yesterday. I attached those to the center of my oval and then stamped a sentiment, from the Salt Air: Sentiments set, on a strip of white cardstock. I popped that up with dimensional foam and then attached a few dies, from the Reef Builder dies collection, on either side.

To finish it, I added a few clear dew drops!

So glad you stopped by today. There is still lots to see from the Papertrey gang … be sure to hop on over to the Papertrey Ink blog for more inspiration using these fabulous new sets!

Papertrey Ink June Release Countdown - Day 1

Hello, friends! Welcome to Day 1 of the June Papertrey Ink Release Countdown. This month is jam packed full of so many wonderful new products … just wait til you see what we have in store for you! Up first for today are three new sets geared towards ocean life … 

* Salt Air: Flora

* Salt Air: Fauna

* Salt Air Sentiments

**All of the new products will be available June 15th at 10pm EST!**

Here is a little something I created mixing all three of these new sets together. I started with a Sweet Blush card base and attached a white Shape Shifters: Oval 1 die cut. I then stamped and die-cut images from the Salt Air: Flora and Salt Air: Fauna sets and attached those to the die-cut oval. I just adore that sweet, sweet turtle! Isn't she the cutest?! I stamped one of the sentiments from Salt Air Sentiments just underneath, in black ink. 

I hope you are enjoying Day 1 of the countdown. For more information on these three new sets you can visit HERE! 

Thanks for visiting with me today. The rest of the Papertrey Ink ladies have lots to share with you, so be sure and pop on over to their blogs and show them some love! 

Have a wonderful day!

Where Creativity Meets C9 - Challenge #22 - Sparkle & Shine

It's time to Sparkle and Shine with Where Creativity Meets C9! Can you believe we are on Challenge #22? Time sure does fly when you are having fun (and when you have such amazing Concord & 9th products to create with)! So, there many different ways you could take this challenge … glitter, embossing, shiny cardstock and the list goes on. I chose sequins … lots of shiny and colorful sequins! I hope sequins never fade out in paper-crafting because they are one of my favorite things to add to my cards. 

I used the Happy Balloon Bundle and started by die-cutting a solid balloon and attached all of my colorful sequins to that. I used mini glue dots to attach them all. Over that I attached an outlined balloon that I had die-cut out of turquoise cardstock. I adhered the balloon to my card front and then moved onto my sentiment. I die-cut two of the 'happy' balloons and then trimmed the edges off before adhering them to my card. 

To complete my card I die-cut three light pink hearts and attached those around my sentiment and balloon.

Now it's your turn. Come join us in the Sparkle and Shine challenge! You have until June 29th to add your card to the link-up and enter for a chance to win a $25 Concord & 9th gift certificate!

Thanks for visiting. Enjoy your day!

Trinity Stamps Blog Hop

Good morning, friends! I am so excited to be helping celebrate the Big Grand Opening of Trinity Stamps today! When Taniesa first sent the images for us to take a peek at, I fell in love. I'm so excited for her and excited for what she has to share with us in the future!

Now let's get to the cards I've created. I chose to stick with the same color combination for all three of my cards, and one of my favorites … aqua, red and pink.

My first card is just a sweet and simple one using a mix of Hopeful Flowers and Let Love Grow! I love that both sets have coordinating dies. I simply stamped, colored and die-cut the blooms and attached them to a white card panel that I had stamped with my sentiment. I'll list all of the Copic colors I used in the supply list at the end of my post.

Up next is Bouquet of Hope! I could not love this adorable little set more. That big bouquet of flowers is so much fun to color in. This set also has a coordinating die set, but I chose to just stamp the image and color it in.

And last for today, I mixed up Hopeful Flowers and Let Love Grow once again. When I saw the row of flowers in this set I knew I wanted to create a frame to go around my sentiment. I love that some of the sentiments in the set also have coordinating dies. I'm so happy with the way it turned out!

Now it's time to continue hopping! Your next stop is Shanna Slater. Be sure to visit the Trinity Stamps blog for the full list of hop participants. There may also be a prize or two up for grabs! ;)

Have a great day and thanks for visiting!
