Hello creative and crafty friends! Today is day FOUR of the wonderful May 2017 Release Week Festivities for Papertrey Ink! Yahoooo! And, happy Saturday! I hope you have a glorious weekend planned full of fun in the sun! It was a gorgeous week here in Sacramento and we have been planting flowers like crazy and eating lots of yummy strawberries and fresh asparagus. Spring is in FULL swing and it's lovely. The new release from PTI this month has some really cool and unique items. On trend and so fun to create with. There is a new Make it Market Kit coming soon and this new release has a Mini Kit that is "out of this world!" CLICK HERE to go to the Official PTI Blog to read all about everything going on this week and into next week as the design team rolls out all the new goodies. All the new products will be available for purchase in the PTI Store on Monday May 15th at 10pm EST.
Today I'm introducing the new stamp set called Quoted: Dream Big! I created three different cards to show you how versatile this stamp set it. It's a small set, but it packs a big design punch. All of the individual lines of the quote are separate stamps so it's very easy to stamp in different colors and/or separate out the words. You'll see! Let's get started! Thanks for coming by today.
First up is a very colorful way to use the Quoted Dream Big stamp set. I started with a card base in Smoky Shadow Cardstock and white heat embossed the moon and stars and the top and bottom lines of the quote. (The moon and stars are from another new stamp set coming soon! It's called Out of this World) Then I white heat embossed the rest of the lines of the quote onto my favorite shades of PTI cardstock and attached them with foam tape.
White heat embossing always looks so crisp and fancy. I love it!! And I really love it on this Raspberry Fizz Cardstock. I added matching enamel dots from my stash. (I have enough enamel dots to last me the next 500 years!)
Anything you dream can come true!!! This would be an awesome graduation card!! You could even personalize it in the school colors of the grad.
For this next card I used the same stamp set and created a vintage looking card. I used the AMAZING new Mix and Mat Herringbone Die set (with the cool photo corners) as the frame for the quote. Here I stamped in shades of brown, aqua and light green for a softer effect.
The frame is attached to the card using foam tape. The card base is made from Ocean Tides Cardstock.
Lastly is a SUPER clean and simple and graphic card using just a few bits of the stamp set. I really love how Nichole designed this set to easily mix and match and use the different pieces. I looooove Hawaiian Shores paper!! The stamps were inked in Aqua Mist Ink and rich black ink. Easy and quick card to make!
I am so happy you popped by to see my little part of release week! Everyone has been busy as little bees in our hives creating inspiration for you. We have so much to share from now through the 20th. Be sure to come back by often in the next week. I have SO MUCH going on!!! I think I have seven blog posts scheduled! EEK. Time to get back to work. Thank you for your support! Have an awesome day. XOXO
SUPPLIES FOR THESE CARDS!

You converted me, Wanda! I love your different takes on a stamp that I had convinced myself I did not need. OK. Add that to my list!

Wanda, I love your trio of cards...each a style of its own. Must admit my fav is the first one with the white embossing of bright and bold colors. Eager to see else you've got up your sleeve for us!
