Hi everyone! The June 2017 Papertrey Ink Release is now live, and all the new items are available in the PTI Store! What is your favorite new item from the June release?? It's hard to pick a favorite this time around (okay every time). For the next few days I'll be sharing all of my projects with you and I can't wait for you to see everything. I posted on the 13th with my three projects for the Garden Party set (scroll back to see those)! Today I'm featuring and introducing the set called Humming Along. It's so unique! I don't think I've ever seen a stamp set with fuchsia flowers in it. Fuchsias remind me of my grandmother. She always had these beautiful plants right by her front door of her house and I have that memory firmly in my mind. Also, this set has morning glories and sweet little fluttering hummingbirds.
My card today is very colorful!!! Get out your sunglasses! Bright green, pretty pinks, and gorgeous turquoise....ahhhhhh. There are matching dies for this set, so creating a card is easy as 1, 2, 3. I started with a green card base and used the A2 Scalloped Noted die to make it into a pretty scallop card. Then I layered a piece of bright white. If you look closely, you can see that I misted on some aqua paint mist for a little interest in the background.
I stamped and die cut out two fuchsias and one hummingbird. I used my MISTI to line up the stamp color layers. I added pretty Diamond Stickles over the top to look like the sunshine is hitting the flowers and the bird wings.
How sweet is that hummingbird? This is the small one, there is a larger one too!! You can stamp the birds and the flowers in so many color combinations.
The sentiments in this set and unique and beautiful and meaningful. I will pull this set out to use with other sets - just to use the sentiments. Lovely.
Thanks for popping in today! CLICK HERE to see the new release! I'll see you tomorrow, right back here. Have a lovely day! XOXO
SUPPLIES FOR TODAY!!

Oh my, this is stunning! Love those colors. As I write I have a pair of hummingbirds on my hanging planter just outside my window. They are so much fun to watch. Sweet tiny souls... I might have to have this set as I also adore fuchsias. Looking forward to seeing what else you have up your sleeve.
