Papertrey June Release Part 2...
June 17, 2011
Happy Friday! I can't believe it's Friday already...I'm not sure where the week went. I don't seem to accomplish a whole lot during the day right now...so much running around to baseball games, swimming lessons, etc, etc!! Summer is just so busy!!
I have the rest of my June Papertrey Ink projects for you today. All supplies will be linked in the thumbnails at the bottom of this post.
First up is Rhythm and Soul. I created a sympathy card using the violin image. I combined it with the sympathy sentiment from Think Big Favorites #3. Notice how the "S" nestles just perfectly in the curve of the violin...I love it when little things like that work out!
I stamped the background with BB: Sheet Music and added flowers from the new Daydreamer set. The violin was stamped onto a woodgrain patterned paper. I cut it out, pressed it into my VersaMark pad, then heat embossed it and then ran it through my Big Shot with my Woodgrain impression plate. The result is a fairly realistic looking wood finish!
Next up is one of my favorites from the month, a simple card using Tag-its #5. I inked the flowers with a technique that I discovered a while back and I'll be putting a video together for soon! :-)
The pretty patterned papers are from Prima...
And lastly, something a little different...bright and fun. I went a little out of the norm for my Flower Fusion #5 project and created a funky pattern with the stems and blooms from the set.
Well, that's it for projects from me today, but I do have a quick heads up about a couple of great sales going on right now! I love a good sale and rarely pay full price for anything. :-D
