Papertrey Ink May Release Countdown Day 4

Welcome! Thanks for joining me for the 4th and final day of the Papertrey Ink May release countdown! I hope you've enjoyed the countdown so far! Up first is card using the delightful new Into the Blooms: Lemon Blossoms; I know this is going to be a new favorite

I went for an Italian Positano lemon look for this card. I die cut all of the pieces I would need to create the lemon branch from white cardstock. I colored the leaves using Green Parakeet and New Leaf ink with blender brushes. The lemons are colored using Harvest Gold and Summer Sunrise ink as well as the flower centers. There are really small pieces to add to the tips of each of the flower centers, but I just used an orange alcohol marker to color them instead.

The flower centers look like tiny hands and I felt like I was painting tiny fingernails! ha ha!

For the background, I used the Woodblcok Print stencil collection with Spring Rain and Blueberry Sky ink.

The sentiment is from the Main Squeeze stamp set that was showcased on day 2. I stamped it in black on a strip of Spring Rain cardstock.

I arranged the lemons, leaves, and blossoms using foam squares for dimension. I forgot to mention that I used shimmer spray only on the lemons, leaves, and blossoms before assembly.

Switching gears to something a little more masculine and perfect for Father's Day: Tool Pouch Die and Best Dad Stamp Set.

I had so much fun putting this all together; the tiny nails, tools, and bag are so fun to assemble!

The panel the tool pouch is on was stamped using Stormy Sea ink on Stormy Sea cardstock using the Weathered Wood Background Stamp. 

The sentiment is from the Best Dad stamp set and is stamped on a banner that was cut using the Banner Builder: Basics Die.

I cut an A2 panel of Dark Chocolate cardstock  using the Border Bling: Tin Stitch Die. 

I used the Cornered: Jean Pocket Die for the grommets in the four corners.

This was such a fun card to make!

Last, but not least, is another baby girl card (I know, I know) using the new Build-a-Buggy Die paired with the This is Big Sentiments: Baby Stamp Set.

This is definitely going to be my go-to baby die set for years to come, I can already tell!

A few things to note: the ruffle coming out of the buggy is from the new In Stitches: Onesie die that was featured on day 2. The bow is from the Bows Galore Die.

I die cut everything from white, with the exception of the tiny wheel centers, which are cut from silver and then I added pearls over the top.

Well, this concludes my post for today and for the release! Thanks for fluttering by!
