Introducing Everyday Happiness and Year Round Happiness...

We are back with another group post for Papertrey Ink, counting down to the new releases for November, which will be released on the 15th. We have two new stamp sets to share, Everyday Happiness and Year Round Happiness, both sentiment sets that will work for any occasion!

I mixed the new Everyday Happiness stamp set with the older By Invitation set. I also used a new die, the One Liners: Happy. There are four different happy fonts in this die set! But this one is my favorite.

To make these, I stamped the invite info and "you're invited" with By Invitation. I randomly added washi tape to the corners. Punched some confetti from cardstock for the corners. Then I added the One Liner happy die cut and stamped "birthday" underneath with Everyday Happiness.

I actually made my own envelope with my new Envelope Punch Board by We R Memory Keepers with matching cardstock. After watching a video on how to do this on You Tube, it was way easier than I thought it was going to be. I'm going to be making many of my own envelopes from now on with PTI cardstock to match my projects!

I also made a little coordinating gift tag. It slides into a Papertrey Ink glassine envelope. Quick and fun!

Next, I have a card made with the One Liners: Happy dies and the Year Round Happiness stamp set. I also used a new die in the background called Cover Plate: Mighty Bloom. 

The "Valentine's Day" is from Year Round Happiness. I cut two of the Mighty Blooms, one from Classic Kraft and one from white cardstock. I backed the kraft one with a text paper, then stamped the leaves onto the white ones and tucked them back in. As you can see, I adhered the leaves at the bottoms and bent them up a bit on the ends to create more of a dimensional flower effect. The vellum is wrapped around the card front before attaching the card front to the card base.

Happy Valentine's Day card:

STAMPS: Year Round Happiness
INK: Raspberry Fizz, New Leaf, Melon Berry, Harvest Gold, Hawaiian Shores, Aqua Mist, True Black
PAPER: Raspberry Fizz, Classic Kraft, vellum, patterned paper by Crate Paper
