Hello Sweet Bloggers!
Today I am sharing more fun projects utilizing my brand new Papertrey Ink stamp set.
- "Embellishments" will release in just a few days on Aug. 15 on the Papertrey website.
- "Embellishments" features 24 stamps! (1 border, 2 large flourishes, 7 small flourishes, 1 fleur-de-lise, 3 accent images, and 11 sentiments.)
- You will LOVE the versatility of this set! It can be fancy or rustic, grungy or classy vintage. The images have a bold look yet can also had a subtle use to them as well. And the sentiments are perfect for countless projects! Whether creating gifts, cards, or scrapbook pages... this set will be your next "Go- To" stamp set!
>>> NOW for some fun projects!!!<<<
For months I have been wanting to stick my toes in the waters of the whole "shabby chic" style in the arts and decor world. And now that I have this stamp set, I can just dive right in!
>> AND, I am so excited to share an awesome resource to help you also accomplish this very popular style in your projects. Allow me to introduce you to "Digital Tuesday". As a graphic designer who loves to combine both digital graphics and conventional tools, this blog is like HEAVEN for me! You will find free images to download, color, and incorporate into your projects for personal use. AND so many of these images are absolutely darling! The had a gorgeous touch of vintage/retro magic that I can't get over! These images are a PERFECT complement to the Embellishments stamp set! Above you will see the see vintage portait called: "Cameo". Below are two little girls called: "Wee One 12" and "Wee One 13".
DETAILS, DETAILS!
>> Papertrey Saves the Day! How fabulous are all these colors? Spring Moss (my fav!) combined with New Leaf, and Raspberry Fizz. The ribbon is PTI Hibiscus Burst, and the PTI Fillable Frames #4 is cut in a standard pink from my scrap folder and trimmed out with the Raspberry Fizz cardstock.
>>I love that white fuzzy ribbon! Wanna know my secret? Check out the dollar ribbons at Michael's Craft stores and you are sure to find this awesome textured trimming in a variety of colors! Can't beat that!
>>The "Cameo" digital stamp from Digital Tuesday, with some light and airy coloring gave a precious womanly feel to the card.
>> A few nicely placed flourishes from the Embellishments stamp set, along with the sentiment gave such an elegant look. And don't miss the Cuttlebug action and nice touch with the PTI Raspberry Fizz rhinestones! Love those!
This next card all ready has such meaning! I made it last week for a new friend! My friend Jenny and her husband Wyatt are planning to adopt their first children in just about a month or so! This amazing couple could have children of their own, but feel called to the honor of adopting. They have been working for several years to get twin girls from China, and while that is still in the works, they are very close to now welcoming two little twin girls into their home all the way from Uganda! How awesome is that!?! Both the new parents and the little ladies will be soo incredibly blessed by the union of their new family!
DETAILS, DETAILS!>>PTI colors include Spring Moss and New Leaf cardstocks coupled with Sweet Blush ribbon and Raspberry Fizz rhinestones.
>>The sentiment was one I used with the same fonts from the Embellishments stamp set. I printed it on the computer so I could make the card more personal for the occasion.
>>Bo Bunny's awesome double sided paper gave a trendy twist on the shabby chic look.
>> Notice the subtle use of the Embellishments stamp set. Below you can see that stamp swirls on the New Leaf green frame behind the digital image of the "wee ones" and I used the largest flourish to add some beauty to the bright pink background paper.
>>I think that LACE is a fabulous touch these days and really brings a lovely feel to any girly project!
>>Don't forget that the little ladies I colored on the Card are from Digital Tuesday and called "Wee One 12" and "Wee One 13".

ReplyDeleteHi Tiffany ... can hardly wait to get this set. I love the flourishes and the sentiment fonts. I can really see how versatile this set will be. Congratulations on this winner!
ReplyDeleteOh my, I love your raspberry fizz background! What a fun color for this. I would love to pair the flourishes and frames with reading and sewing images. it's got such a great classic vibe.
ReplyDeleteWonderful stamp idea and samples, Tiffany! Love this new concept for Papertrey! :)
ReplyDeleteI like the versatility of this set! It can be used for so many different looks.
ReplyDeleteYou're right Tiffany, those vintage images work perfectly with your new flourishes! Someone on the PTI forum mentioned how pretty your flourishes would be with flocking added to them; I'd love to try that!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful images. I love the idea of making my own paper designs, especially the tone on tone.
ReplyDeleteI like how this set can look vintage or grunge!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous cards. I so admire the vintage style and you executed it beautifully. I'm a hopeless mess when I try but I do admire it and always find some inspiration. I do believe I will try a digi download and see if I can create anything worth more than a trip to the "round" file. Thanks for some great inspiration and I love the new stamps!
ReplyDeleteWow, wow, wow. Your samples are beautiful and from what I've seen created from this stamp set, I think it will be one of the most versatile sets at PTI. Can't wait to see the full reveal!
ReplyDeleteYour flourishes set is going to become a PTI classic, without a doubt. I love the vintage cards you made today, and the touching adoption story and card were inspiring.
ReplyDeleteWow this is such a beautiful set. I love florishes. I love the look of the background paper.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love this set, you are right, it could be used as grungy, vintage, classic, soooooo many possiblilties. I can't wait to see the entire set. And don't get me started on the dies that go with it. Way too cool!
ReplyDeleteMore beautiful projects, Tiffany! I love the patterned paper look and can't wait to put the flourishes behind some hand made blossoms! Can't wait to see more! (Another late night for me, as you can see...but I'm making good progress!)
ReplyDeleteThis set will definitely become one of my favorites! I have always been drawn to flourishes,they fit perfectly into vintage and elegant styles, which happen to be my favorite!
ReplyDeleteLove it all - love vintage aged grunge shabby chic looks!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link, the site is great. I'm very excited about this set, I think it will be brilliant for backgrounds and focal points and for all sorts of occasions too.
ReplyDeleteThis set will be a must have in my stash.Love the sentiments,the flourish.........oh heck just like the lot.Papertrey seem to make all their sets like this!
ReplyDeleteChristine D
Oooh I haven't bought a set in ages from PTI but this is one for me - can't wait :D
ReplyDeleteI love your projects today. I am so in love with this set. It makes me want to finally tackle my wedding scrapbooks.
ReplyDeleteLove your cards and its almost my fav. color combo.I too have spring moss as fav. color and also with pink sweet blush.... but with aqua mist is on the second place.
ReplyDeleteJust love sweet soft colors.
That white ribbon on the first card is so unusual. I love the vintage-feel of the cards. Cant wait to see all the images in this stamp set.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see all of this set!! I think I would be primarily using this new set for cardmaking. I can see that this set would be a must have staple!
ReplyDeleteI love flourishes and can't wait to buy this set!! I am sure it will be one that I go back to over and over again for cards as well as scrapbook pages. :)
ReplyDeleteI love the versatility of your set. I'm a great fan of flourishes and see lots of possibilities for cards and scrapbooking!

I love your new set! This is a set that can be used for many different projects, however, I will use it mainly for cards but also for some scrapbook layouts. I can't wait to try it out on a red, black, and white card.
ReplyDeleteMove over Fancy Flourishes ... There's a new kid in town!! I love the fuzzy trim on the first card. How fun is that?
ReplyDeleteI would love to see you use your new Embellishment set to create masculine cards. Maybe something paired with a woodgrain?
This set is gorgeous! And so versatile! I think it will go like hot cakes!!! I can't wait to make some shabby chic cards with it!
ReplyDeleteWonderful set. I can see it used in many of my cards. I like the way you reversed the textured paper to show the "indents". Great cards and thanks for sharing your talents.
ReplyDeleteLove the vintage look!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to use this set to build my own backgrounds! It's one of my favorite stamping techniques and this set is perfect!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE flourishes! All kinds!! I can't get enough of them on cards or SB layouts. This is looking like one amazing set!! Great job!
ReplyDeleteEmbellishments is such a beautiful and versatile set. I'm sure we'll be seeing it a lot in all the publications before too long! Beautiful cards.
ReplyDeleteEmbellishments is a beautiful flourish stamp set, perfect for the Shabby Chic trend that is sooo hot right now!!! I love all the girly details yet I can imagine using this set for all occasions! I can't wait to scrapbook with Embellishments!!! Oh, the possibilities!
ReplyDeleteI just love the versatility of the set, especially the coordinating die! I can't wait to use them on some scrapbook pages.
ReplyDeleteI want to try stamping the flourishes w/a glue pad & use flocking on them.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great set Tiffany. A 'must-have' set. I can't wait to use it on some home decor projects as well as scrapbook pages. LOVE it :)
ReplyDeleteLove this stamp set Tiffany. It is awesome! The flourishes with the matching dies are lovely.
ReplyDeleteThis looks to be such a versatile set. I love the details on the flourishes, so pretty Your examples are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to add this stamp set to my collection! I love the distressed look of the flourishes.
ReplyDeleteI would love to play with large flourishes to create my own background paper. I will also try out this colour combination: New Leaf and Raspberry Fizz - it's a dare for me!
ReplyDeleteEmbellishments is a must have set! It is the best flourishes I have seen ever, and the icing on the cake is it comes with matching dies! WOW! Can't wait until the 15th. Great set Tiffany! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThe first Flourishes set from PTI is my most used set and I begged Nichole for another. Embellishments is just what I wanted--with more filled in and "bushy" flourishes. With added details and sentiments I know I will wear out this set in no time! I suspect I will be using different parts of the set for every new card I make! Love the fonts too. This is a home run!
ReplyDeleteI am loving the versatility of this set!!
ReplyDeleteWow, Tiff! Cheri told me you were doing this but had no idea you had this whole setup already. You're very talented . . . I have many teacher friends who stamp and will tell them about this:)
ReplyDeleteI just love the subtlety of your new set. your card for the twin girls is lovely.

You have created the perfect compliment to the Paperytrey stamp/die collection. I love that your flourishes have that distressed look, they are just fabulous!! Can't wait to get my hands on them!
ReplyDeleteYour cards are beautiful, but I can't do shabby chic or vintage well at all! So I'll be trying a modern twist with this set, and I'm sure it will be gorgeous. It's a beautiful set!
ReplyDeleteI love the flourishes as the background on the Raspberry Fizz. It looks so elegant. Can't wait to see the full set.
ReplyDeleteYour set is beautiful and versatile. What a great combination! I love the color combo you have used on both of these cards. I can't wait to try it all out!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards--I like the versatility and the sentiments. Thanks for telling us about your Michaels ribbon and the Digital Tuesday images--gorgeous and perfect with this stamp set.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful stamp set you've created. I can't wait to get my hands on one. How exciting to know that there is a companion die as well.
ReplyDeleteYou really knocked the shabby chic theme out of the park! With such great tools you make it look easy. I'm in the same boat as I've itched to give this a try but haven't been brave enough yet. However, with the new PTI set coming out I might just take the plunge!
ReplyDeleteI love your new set, Tiffany! It makes shabby chic look very possible for new stampers!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful. I love your example. My 2.5 year old daughter Fiona has always had a vintage nursery (turned vintage big-girl room). Her absolute favorite thing is her quilt (it is called Dresses, Dresses and I got it off Overstock.com). Even though it is toddler sized and she has a twin bed, she won't give it up. Anyway, the reason I bring this up is because I would absolutely love to make a scrapbook for my little dollbaby. I love someone else's idea about the possibility of using the embellishments/stamp set with masculine colors. What's great about the embellishments/stamps is that they are so versatile. The very first thing I thought of when I saw your example is for me to make a card for my mother-in-law. She is going through a really hard time emotionally/personally and I want to show her how much I care. She has lost someone who is dear to her, who has been in her life since she was 16 years old. The person has not passed but they have gone from her life. I really appreciate your inspiration! My MIL taught me to sew and I like the idea of incorporating sewing notions on/in the card. Another great application for your embellishments/stamps set would be for my stepmom (my kids' Nana). Shabby-chic is her style, and she pulls it off well. I think she'd appreciate a card for Grandparents' Day in September. My beloved sister-in-law has a birthday in September as well. I just love all the cards you make and I hope I can start making my cards more beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI love your cards!!! The images I've seen so far in this new set are so versatile and elegant. I love the distressed finish too which makes them even more versatile and grungy...endless options...for only $24!
ReplyDeleteLord Bless you,
Barbara
Very impressive...I love everything you have shared so far in this countdown. The images are so pretty as either the focal points or subtle backgrounds on your projects. Can't wait to see more!!
ReplyDeletekarenlackey@comcast.net
beautiful job on the shabby shic. I would love to see if this set could be used as a more modern look or a CAS card.
ReplyDeleteLove your new stamp set!!! I would like to make beautiful backgrounds with these awesome stamps and so versatile!!!
ReplyDeleteBEAUTIFUL! My little sister is getting married and these flourishes and dies are going to help me SO much with all the homemade papercrafting we're going to do. I have SO many ideas now. I can't wait for the 15th!
ReplyDeleteThis set looks so fun and versatile! I love flourishes and can't wait to start playing with this set! Thank you!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful stamp set, Tiffany. I love how you used it!
ReplyDeleteI love the textures of the first card. And the details that you incorporated on the second card are perfect. It's a gorgeous stamp set!
ReplyDeleteA must have stamp set! ... its an all around stamp ... can't wait for PTI's release ...
ReplyDeleteTiffany, I am in love with this set and I haven't even seen it all yet. I knew I wanted this set with I first saw the sneek peak on Nichole's blog.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to use this set on some scrapbook pages and cards, it has so many applications you can let your creativity go wild and embellish everything.
ReplyDeleteThose cards are so awesome and so was the wonderful story you shared about your friends! Sooo loving the beautiful elements of your new set, Tiffany!
ReplyDeleteWow! The cards are beautiful. I love the color combination. The frayed ribbon is terrific. I thought it was feathers at first! Great idea.
ReplyDeleteI think this set will be great for wedding cards. Very elegant.
ReplyDeleteTiffany, you are singing my song. I love the vintage style of your new set and I have been making cards with vintage seed packet images from the internet. Thanks for telling me about
ReplyDeleteDigital Tuesday. Also, I just love the hot pink in your cards. donna calamari

ReplyDeleteI'm telling you with the flourishes and die to cut them out & then some lace/bling and vintage images, this is going to sell like hotcakes!!! LOVE these samples!!!
ReplyDeleteYour new stamp set is absolutely gorgeous! I also really like the cards you made -- and the trim on the first card -- I love how you twisted it and made it so special. Love your samples!
ReplyDeleteI am loving this set! Especially for backgrounds and using as borders on frame diecuts. Love it! :)
ReplyDeleteThis is an absolutely fabulous set and what a wonderful addition it will be to my PTI stamp collection. I love the look of the images and how versatile it is which makes it usable for all kinds of cards.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the inspiration Tiffany...this stamp set looks amazing with just the few samples I've seen. I'm not a good "background maker", but with this set, I sure hope to try! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI love the fonts you used, and the flourishes are so great. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful set. I can see myself using it in many different ways.
ReplyDeleteI would love to try this set with tone on tone embossing powder or like a fun flock to add some texture. I think it could replace some of those super expensive papers that I sometimes buy. Wouldn't that be fun! Heather Curoe
ReplyDeleteI've just found your blog through Papertrey - of course I wanted to see who'd designed the beautiful new flourishes!
ReplyDeleteThis set looks so pretty...Your projects are just beautiful. I love the bold flourishes they add so much to the cards...thanks for your inspiration.
ReplyDeleteI am really looking forward to this flourish set. I like fancy flourishes but this one has more texture to it. Congrats to your friends and their lucky little girls!
ReplyDeleteI really like this set -- the distressed flourishes are such a neat touch to projects and I can't wait to get my own set so I can start stamping with it too!
ReplyDeleteI like this set...excited to see the whole preview!
ReplyDeleteI love those digital stamps you used! So complimentary! My fav part of your sets is the versatility, esp with those dies! Can't wait to try them!
ReplyDeleteLove the combo of digital with the background stamps. Your choice of colors is top notch too. I've always liked shades of green used with pinks and rose. You are generous with your prizes. Thanks
ReplyDeleteSuch sweet cards and thank you so much for introducing me to that *awesome* blog!! I will be following it from now on. Your new stamp set is gorgeous and can be used for so many things and occassions (I am thinking it would be a welcome addition to my Halloween party invitations and other items for the party)!! Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteWow, beautiful cards! Thanks for sharing the story. I can't wait to see the full reveal of your stamp set!
ReplyDeleteI hope you're giving away some of that frilly trim! That is a perfect complement to your vintage cards. And that little scallop with the letter - - I need that too!
ReplyDeleteWhat would I use this stamp set on? Well, what wouldn't I use it on! It's gorgeous!
