Well, today is the day that all of the goodies we've been featuring of the last week will be available for purchase from the Papertrey Ink site. Everything will go up in the store at 10pm EST time tonight, December 15th.
I have a couple more projects to share with you to round out the release.
Frist is a card using Maile's new Quilled Elegance set. I used it to create a valentine card. I heat embossed the quilled images with white powder, then stamped inside with the solid stamps using Pure Poppy and Hibiscus inks. I added a bit of misting with a pink mist as well.
Between the borders of that large quilled image I stamped the word "love" from the With All My Heart set. I added the circle and smaller sentiment also from With All My Heart. The little tails on the circle element are the new Countdown Details dies...they are fun little banners that I can see myself reaching for again and again...just the perfect little accent!
Up next is my Framed Out #11 project. This month's addition is a cute heart frame. I cut it multiple times from different colors of polka dot Pattern Pack papers.
The XoXo border is new as well....such a cute border!
And lastly, a more masculine valentine or anniversary card using the new Sending My Love sentiment set. I love the font treatments in this one...you know I'm a sucker for this sort of look.
Again I used the Countdown Details dies to create a little cluster up in the top corner. Just a simple strip of patterned paper and some twine finish it off.
I hope you thoroughly enjoyed this month's countdown festivities! To see more projects using these new sets, you can visit the other DT gals' blogs...

Betsy, I think this release was meant for you - you have made me look at colors I would not normally use, stamps I would not normally gravitate toward and use them in ways I had not thought of! Great job!

Once again, you are the 'color queen' and, the things you do with fonts just slay me. Your first card with the quilling makes me weak in the knees - so many layers, and yet so visually direct. Please never go over a cliff, because I'd have no choice but to follow you!
