Throwback Thursday- Seasonal Sentiments {Avery Elle}

Hello friends,

It's been a while since I had an opportunity to participate in Avery Elle's Throwback Thursday feature, but when Jamie announced that we would be showcasing Seasonal Sentiments, I knew I had to find time to play along.

The Seasonal Sentiments stamp set features images and sentiments for FIVE Autumn/Winter holidays.  With one set, you are covered from Halloween through the New Year.

I just love this little Thanksgiving acorn image, so I paired him up with the Christmas Florals stamp set and Sweet Scallops Elle-ments die to create this autumn card.

Staring with a note card from the Citrus Collection, I die cute the scalloped oval and the pierced oval from card stock, stamped the acorn and adhered the ovals to the card.  Next, I stamped some of the foliage and flowers from the Christmas Florals stamp set, die cut them with the coordinating Elle-ments dies and arranged them around the bottom of the acorn.  I love that the Christmas florals take on an autumn hue using Avery Elle's pigment ink in Papaya, Mustard Seed, Jungle and Truffle.

Message in a Bottle {Avery Elle}

Hello friends!

It's time for an Avery Elle Throwback Thursday, and this month we are featuring Bottle It Up.

Bottle It Up is a super fun set- perfect for building your own terrarium.  My card features a message in a bottle.

I stamped and die cut the bottle and added a bit of aqua shading with a Copic marker.  I rolled up a piece of paper and tied it with twine before adhering it to the bottle.  The water and waves are from the new Swim Team stamp set and dies.  I added a cork bottle stopper for a little texture.

#TBT- Surf's Up {Avery Elle}

Hello friends, 

It's time for another #TBT with Avery Elle and this time we are featuring the Surf's Up stamp set.  Surf's Up is such a great set, and it's perfect for all the dudes in your life.  

For my card, I stamped the waves in Sea Glass ink onto a Sea Glass notecard around the edge of the card.  I stamped and colored the van before trimming it out and adhering it to the notecard. I added the surf boards with Fizz ink and the sentiment with black ink. 

Here's a look at the entire set: 

Well, that's all for me today, but be sure to stop by the Avery Elle blog for even more inspiration using this fun set and for a chance to win this set for your very own!

Throwback Thursday: Write It {Avery Elle}

Hello friends, 

It's Throwback Thursday on the Avery Elle blog and this month, we are featuring the Write It stamp set.  I just love the trendy calligraphy sentiments and the fountain pen is the perfect accompanying image. 

For my card, I stamped the sentiment on an angle with navy ink.  

Next, I stamped the fountain pen in multiple shades of ink.  I cut the stamped panel on an angle and adhered it to the card base with foam tape. 

Well that's all for me today, but be sure to swing by the Avery Elle blog to check out even more inspiration from the Avery Elle design team.
