all star team word collage
April 12, 2009
Welcome back for another sneak peek project using my new sets, All Star Team & All Star Team Additions, that will be available on the 15th at Papertrey Ink!
Let's put the pennant image away today and focus on the sentiments. There are so many great sentiments that I included in this set and they themselves can be the basis for your card design. Nichole's frame project that she showcased on the 11th is a beautiful example of this.
One of the beauties of acrylic stamps is being able to take your images and take them a step beyond and create your own custom images. Whether it be spelling out a word with alphabet stamps, building on an existing image, or creating something to use as a background - the possibilities of what you can do are endless. I created a collage on my acrylic block with a variety of sentiments and stars from both sets.
I stamped my new background image onto Pure Poppy cardstock using Fresh Snow ink. LOVE the look! It makes me want to go back and pull out other sets to see what other backgrounds I could create...
I pulled out a couple other colors of cardstock to create a set of coordinating papers. Quick and easy.
This first card I used some color block from each cardstock color. I stamped a focal sentiment onto a piece of stamped cardstock that I had left from a previous project and put together a star accent using some punches and a star brad.
This second card I punched my star shapes right from the custom stamped cardstock. Another strip for the bottom of the card and a sentiment to finish it off!
Looking for more sneak peeks for this April release at Papertrey Ink? Nichole and Michelle are featuring Nichole's Tea for Two set today on their blogs and Lisawill be sharing more with her Spots & Dots set on her blog.
I have one more day of sneak peeks for you tomorrow and I hope you will stop by the release party at the Papertrey forums on that night from 10PM-midnight EST!
Thanks for stopping by!
