PTI Day 2 April Reveals

 

Hi everyone! Welcome back to day #2 of reveals for the April release at Papertrey Ink! Today, we are introducing you to Scene Everywhere: At the Lake stamps set and dies + Corrugated Metal Background stamps + Captivating Cattails stamp set and dies + Vase Collection 9 stamp set and dies. This month will give you more masculine options for the men in your life!

This is an easy scene to put together and I kept the layers very simple. I sponged the edges of the torn die panel before layering it on a piece of watercolor pattern paper that is from a new (to me) pad from PTI.

STAMPS: Scene Everywhere: At the Lake, Captivating Cattails
INK: Aqua Mist, Hawaiian Shores, Harvest Gold, Summer Sunrise, Honey Nut, Cocoa Bean, Soft Stone, Weathervane, Smokey Shadow, Olive Twist, True Black, Ocean Tides
PAPER: Watercolor Wonder patterned paper, White, Ocean Tides
DIES: Scene Everywhere: At the Lake, Captivating Cattails, Love to Layer: Torn Edges

As soon as I saw this set of cattails, I knew I wanted to color blend either a sunrise or sunset. The moon was masked off with a one inch circle punched from copy paper.

STAMPS: Captivating Cattails
INK: Squeezed Lemonade, Mustard Seee, Spiced Marmalade distress inks; True Black
PAPER: Text-Style Distressed Dots, True Black; Bristol smooth Surface
DIES: Love to Layer: Notched, Shape Shifters: Oval 2
OTHER: Black twine

Lastly, I wanted to combine the corrugated background stamp set with the new barrel in the Vase Collection.

I started to use the cattails to fill up the barrel but was drawn to the tulips from last month's release and loved the outcome.

I used two different embossing powders by WOW! called Egyptian Turquoise and Grey Sky At Night. For some reason the gray didn't show up well (too much gold mixed in) so, I will need to practice more with getting better metallic looks to this fun background.

STAMPS: Corrugated Metal Background, Vase Collection 9, Just Sentiments: Everyday, Totally Tulips
INK: New Leaf, Ripe Avocado, Sweet Blush, Pale Peony, Berry Sorbet, Lemon Tart, Harvest Gold, Orange Zest, Honey Nut, Cocoa Bean
