Last night marked the release of two new Papertrey sets - Mixed Messages and Out on a Limb - both awesome sets!
My sets *just* arrived yesterday afternoon so I had to scramble to get my samples made in time - I hope y'all like them!
Sadly my heart shaped tins haven't arrived yet and will prolly be at least a good week till they get here - I can't wait to get my hands on them!
Anywho - this first card uses the new Mixed Messages set along with PT's Beautiful Blooms stamp set.
I just love how small all the sentiments are in the set - they fit on all kinds of things (CuttleBug Tiny Tags dies, small punches, the smaller Nestabilities dies etc etc etc).
For this card I stamped the flower then stamped the sentiment as the flower center (and enhanced it with a medium Making Memories Page Pebble).
I used my Marvy Giga Scalloped Rectangle Punch for the black part, and cut a slit through the card underneath it to thread the ribbon through.
STAMPS: Mixed Messages and Beautiful Blooms stamp sets. CS: Papertrey White, Black.
INK: Colorbox Pigment Ink in Pink, Versafine Onyx Black, Certainly Celery Classic (Stampin' Up!).
ACCESSORIES: Marvy Giga Scalloped Rectangle Punch, White Taffeta Ribbon, Making Memories Medium Page Pebble, Corner Rounder Punch.
For this card I stamped the limb, flowers and berries using Stampin' Up! Classic inks then added dots of Bravo Burgundy ink with an AquaPainter for the flower centers.
The scalloped rectangle was made with a Nestabilities die (I cut it out first then stamped it), and after stamping the sentiment I used my Making Memories Ribbon Notch Tool to make the holes to slide the ribbon through.
I think this was the first time EVER that I've made a card entirely out of patterned paper!
I used Chatterbox patterned card stock (it's heavier weight than their paper) called Soft Flowering Vine (from the Loft Collection). I have had it in my stash for well over a year if not two - I couldn't even tell you where I got it from it was that long ago!
Anyway I made the card from the patterned card stock, and for the inside I used my Largest Scalloped Rectangle Nestabilities die on white card stock to adhere to the inside to give it a more finished look.
STAMPS: Out on a Limb. CS: Papertrey White, Black, Chatterbox Small Flowering Vine card stock. INK: Old Olive, Regal Rose, Bravo Burgundy and Bashful Blue Classic Inks (Stampin' Up!), Versafine Onyx Black.
ACCESSORIES: Scalloped Rectangle Nestabilities Die, Corner Rounder Punch, Making Memories Ribbon Slot Punch, Wide Rose Grosgrain Ribbon.
I really love how this tin turned out! It's one of Papertrey's Large Hinged Tins, and I just traced the lid onto a piece of Kraft card stock with a pencil and cut it out to cover. I did a second piece to fit on the inside of the lid.
I stamped the limb onto the card stock with Chocolate Chip Craft ink, then I took the 3 little hearts from the My Punny Valentine set and stamped them in Regal Rose, Real Red and Whisper White ink.
The sentiment is from Mixed Messages (this one sentiment is my favorite!) and I stamped it onto a CuttleBug Tiny Tags Die-cut, then attached it to the card stock with 2 Making Memories heart brads.
For the inside of the lid I stamped the sentiments - making sure to keep them far enough apart to be able to stamp the heart.
Both the outside and inside pieces were edged with White Craft Ink before adhering.
To finish off the tin I adhered red Satin May Arts ribbon around the edge (fits perfectly).
