Welcome to a second Papertrey Ink group posts for November! Today's post showcases a fun little series of signature Dawn McVey stamps--literally! If you have been following Dawn's blog this week, you've seen an amazing array of creativity there. Since she is introducing several of these small Signature Series sets, the team divided up the sets; I chose the Signature Series: Flower set and its coordinating die.
Papers are from Heather's Library Ledger Collection. The card is a smaller than A-2, at 3-1/2" x 5", and both the tag and its mat layer are Papertrey die cuts, Tag Sale 2 and Fillable Frames 7. I trimmed around the stamped flowers by hand and then used the coordinating die to mat the trimmed flower.
I have a little bonus project too. The flower shape reminded me of a poinsettia, so I die-cut two layers from Papertrey's cream felt and a third layer from Chartreuse felt. I sewed some seed pearls in the center and a pin on the back. To attach it to a 3" x 3" mini card, I punched two 1/4" holes and inserted the pin base through the holes. The "Joy to the World" sentiment is from Dawn's Signature Christmas set.
Be sure to check out what the rest of the team did with the Signature Series. Thanks for visiting!
