Release Day...

Today the Papertrey Ink team members get to share all of their new projects with the products coming out tonight at 10pm EST at Papertrey Ink. I'll show you what products are new!

My first card is made with the new Cutting Garden stamps.

I tried a few new things on this card (well, new to me!). First, I embossed the stamping with Zing, which is a little bit thicker than the fine embossing powder, but I like how it turned out. I added some white embossing powder over the top for "highlights" on my flowers, and I used a dry brush with some darker ink over the flowers and leaves to make darker areas as well.

After it dried, I went over the card with white ink to make it look "chalk board-ish".

Thank You card:
STAMPS: Cutting Garden
INK: Fresh Snow, Limeade Ice, Sweet Blush ink
PAPER: Smokey Shadowone cardstock
DIES: none
OTHER: Zing powder - Blush and Cricket, white embossing powder., Soft Stone.

Next I used two new sets, one called Fanciful Finials and one called My Mother, My Friend.

The Fanciful Finials go with the Background Basics: Wrought Iron set (to add little tops to the fence), but I decided to create a pattern with them instead. I stamped them in a criss-cross pattern. I added the floral stamp on the top and bottom from My Mother, My Friend and the sentiments from that set also. I cut the MOM frame out with the new My Mother, My Friend dies.

"So Happy For You" was made with the new Watercolor Wonder and  Mini Blooms stamps. I love the font in the Mini Blooms sentiments!

I used Raspberry Fizz, Harvest Gold and Hawaiian Shores inks. (Sweet Blush ink on the second one. I like how Sweet Blush ink looks in person, but online the Raspberry Fizz really pops!)

These were stamped in the backgrounds with Watercolor Wonder. I used the Wonderful Words: Hello die cut and stamps also for the sentiments.

"To you from me with love" is from the Mini Blooms set. One of my favorite sentiments!

And last, but not least, another Cutting Garden card mixed with a new set called Boutique Borders: Mother.

I used Background Basics: Woodgrain to stamp and emboss the kraft paper, then cut the flower and leaves from Cutting Garden. The frame is cut and stamped with Boutique Borders: Mother. I rolled the leaf stamps in the darker ink just on the edges to create depth to the die cuts.
