What day is today?? LOL!! Thanks for hanging in there with me yesterday with THREE blog posts!! I hope you found something fun and inspiring along the way! Yes, I'm back again!!! I told you I was busy this week! It's been FUN. So many new stamping toys to play with. Today is another day of inspiration from the brand new May 2017 Papertrey Ink release! And, today's card has a lot of....sole! The new stamp set I'm introducing is called Heart and Soul, and it's perfect for the athletes and hikers in your life. Really innovative and creative stamps with matching dies to create running shoes, work boots, and hiking boots! Papertrey Ink always surprises us with awesome new things.
My husband is an avid hiker so I knew exactly what kind of card I wanted to make when I saw this stamp set! A card for my love and the person who walks by my side, every step of the way. I used colors found in nature - green brown, kraft....
I started with a nice deep green card base and layered on some leafy patterned paper. Then I added two layers of kraft paper. I stamped on the top layer in brown ink and Antique Linen Distress Ink. I die cut the boot print out with the matching die and layered it onto the card with foam tape. The stamp set has several small stamps that fit into the openings in the boot (and the running shoe in the set). It was fun to mix and match. I used the tiny star stamp to add a few accents.
I finished off the card with some natural twine to add another element to my card. It looks like rope!!
I hope you will check out this new stamp set - be sure to see it if you have runners in your family. Some of the other designers made some really amazing and colorful running cards out of it. Until we meet again - take care! Thanks for coming by! XOXO

I've always loved that Echo Park fall pad, and your card reminds me to add it to my wish list.
