Today we are previewing two new stamp sets by Papertrey Ink,
Floral Sketches and
Calligraphy Classics! These will be available for purchase on 5/15 at 10pm EST at
Papertrey Ink. On my first set of tags, the color scheme was inspired by
this pin.
The
Floral Sketches stamp set was used for the flowers, and the sentiments are from
Calligraphy Classics. I love, love the big font - great for a beautiful focal point for tags and cards! See the branches? Those are actually veins for the larger leaf in the floral set. They reminded me of the branches from the inspiration piece.
The tags are cut out with the
Tag Sale: Quilted die.
About the stamping: the flowers are dipped in Lovely Lady ink, then the edges dipped in Pure Poppy, then I stamped the second step of the flower (outline) in Scarlet Jewel. The tiny flowers are stamped in Fine Linen and Classic Kraft (outline) inks. The leaves are Enchanted Evening with white embossed veins and the branches are stamped in Stormy Sea.

To make these, I started off stamping the sentiment in a lighter pink color, then used a wet paintbrush to paint over it. When dry, I stamped the sentiments again over the top in Pure Poppy. The leaves were painted by myself with a teal watercolor paint and a tiny bit of gray and black mixed in. Before I did the leaves, I actually stamped 2 flowers with the Paper Clippings: Thinking of You stamp set.
