Spring/Summer 2022 New Release – Reveal Week – Day 3

Hello and welcome back to Day 3 of Reveal Week! Our new Spring/Summer Release can now be Pre-Ordered at www.ppstamps.com! If you missed our Day 1 Reveal & Giveaway, please click HERE!

Over the next two days, we will be showcasing some of our newest circular stencils from the Stencils 360° collection! So for those who are fans of this innovative tool, stay with us! If you haven’t heard of this tool yet, don’t miss out as you will be amazed by what it can do!

Today we are focusing on a brand new 6″ x 8″ stamp set Modern Deluxe Alphabets, along with its Coordinating Stencil Templates. With the edged guidelines around the little windows on these stencils, you can easily pop in and align the individual stamps from the Modern Deluxe Alphabets to create the coolest letters background! Let me show you what I mean with some samples below!

I made a trio of cards for today. I combined the Modern Deluxe Alphabet stamp set with a different Template for each of my card.

For my first card I taped my A2 size card to the back of Template 2 (lining it up with the edged corner guides on the stencil). Then I put them into my MISTI tool and start positioning my letter stamps. The edged guidelines around the windows can easily help with getting the perfect alignment!

I stamped out the word LOVE using Versafine Onyx Black ink and clear heat embossed them. Then I used Squeezed Lemonade and Spiced Marmalade Distress Oxides on my stencil template to add some shades behind the letters. I then used the Rain of Hearts stencil gradually blending lighter towards the centre of my card.

Finally I finished it with some gems for the extra sparkles!

For my next card I used this stamp set with Template 1 in which there are twelve square cut-outs.

I knew I wanted black letters against a clean white background for the biggest contrast so I stamped out the letters again with Versafine Onyx Black ink and left the background white. I trimmed off the edges and popped it onto kraft cardstock and added some really cool sparkly star shaped embellishments! And by the way, you will find this cool embellishment on our website along with tons of other gorgeous new ones real soon ^.^!

For my last card, I used Template 3 where there are six square cut-outs.

Since there are only six letters on this card, I wanted a bold background to accompany my THANKU design. I used Catherine Pooler Juniper Mist ink along with Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide on our new The Rose Close-Up stencil. I trimmed the sides and pop my card onto a matching color Vintage Beetle cardstock.

I added some beautiful clear hearts embellishment (coming soon to our shop) to finish off the card. I thought they mimic dew drops with an elegant twist!

There you have my inspirations for today! If you haven’t done so, head over to our Day 1 post and participate in our BLOG + IG GIVEAWAYS! You have until May 8, 9:00pm PST to enter. We really hope you will play along with us! Winners will be announced on our Blog and on Instagram on May 9.

They are the Inseparable stamp set and the Unity and Friendship Quotes stamp set along with their coordinating dies. These two sets also go seamlessly with each other as they both consist of the same farmhouse fonts which is super trendy!

First up we have Mimi‘s creations! I’d like to take this chance to welcome Mimi to our Creative Team! She is so talented and she will have lots of beautiful inspirations to share with us in the near future!

Mimi created two cards for us today.

The gorgeous grassy field and the light blue sky set the scene for the cuddly critters!

I love the way she masked off her card to leave ample white space for her sentiments from Unity and Friendship Quotes. The pink die cut shadow she made on the top sentiment also gives some added dimension.

For her next card, she used a sectioned frame cover die to lay out her card which is a great way to showcase images of this size!

I just love this pastel color tone and her choice of sentiments! This card is so adorable!

Next we have Karen’s card. Karen used the Mega Blocks stencil for her background. I love how the light cyan tone gives a very calm and peaceful vibe!

She took one of the adorable images from the Inseparable stamp set as the focal point and finished it off with some sparkly gems!

Next we have Julie’s card. The flower bouquet image is from the So Blessed stamp set and it makes a beautiful background for her mini slimline.

I love the stitched heart die cut that she added underneath the cute bear family of three! I also love how this right aligned sentiment from Unity and Friendship Quotes perfectly fits into this layout.

Guest Designer Keiko made a set of three tags to showcase the Inseparable stamp set!

I love how the smaller sentiments like ‘Handmade with Love’ can fit into mini tags like these.

The deep red cardstock and kraft cardstock is such a wonderful combination!

Last but not least we have our Guest Designer Yan’s creation!

These polaroid frames are from the Twist N Pop Surprise stand-alone die cut. I love the trio-frames layout which is so much fun! The multiple accessory images complete her card flawlessly. Super cute card Yan!

That concludes our inspirations for today! I’m sure you’ll agree that these are some wonderful projects from our talented artists!

They are the Magical Christmas Sentiments & its coordinating penguin perfect cuts; and the Minimalist Christmas Trees! These sets work seamlessly with each other as you will see from the below examples from our team!

First up we have Karen’s creation! The silver, red and green color combination on white is very festive and it really gives a snowy vibe!

She mixed and match a bunch of different style of the mini-trees together with the different tree toppers. I love all the heat embossing she did which gives the card the added interest!

She used one of the big scripty sentiments from Magical Christmas Sentiments, die cut it using the coordinating die and adhered it with a bit of foam tape for the added dimension!

Next up, how cool is Julie’s card?! I love that her card is a bunch of clever little details all put together. The beautifully colored trees just pop on the beige background! The torn paper effect and a piece die-cut from the Slimline Oriental Cover Die combines to create the most interesting background!

She adhered a big scripty sentiment in white from the Magical Christmas Sentiments together with a contrasting white heat embossed sans serif font on black cardstock which I thought is really cool!

Next we have Stefanie’s inspiration! I love how she created her own patterned paper using the Minimalist Christmas Trees.

I adore the tone on tone look for this card! I love the contrast of having a large sentiment heat embossed in gold on white cardstock, with and a smaller sentiment embossed in white on black cardstock. The gold sequins finished off her card perfectly!

Finally we have Candice’s adorable creation! I just love the fun and cheerful color choices for those mini-christmas trees!

The gold heat embossing really makes the trees pop! She finished off her card with a sweet sentiment and some matching gold color gems for the extra sparkle!

The 4 new 6″x8″ large stamp sets include the Warmest Wishes, Heartfelt Notes, Words From the Heart (Chapter 1) and Words From the Heart (Chapter 2) These stamps are filled with fun, modish and heart warming messages that are must-haves for various occasions.

Warmest Wishes 6″x8″ Clear Stamp Set
Heartfelt Notes 6″x8″ Clear Stamp Set

The two sets above shares the same coordinating dies set, Warmest Wishes and Heartfelt Notes – Coordinating Penguin Perfect Cuts.

Warmest Wishes and Heartfelt Notes – Coordinating Dies

Some of the dies can be mix and matched for different images in the sets, as you can see from the images below.

Words From The Heart (Chapter 1) 6″x8″ Clear Stamp Set
Words From The Heart (Chapter 2) 6″x8″ Clear Stamp Set

The other 2 stamp sets Words From The Heart (Chapters 1 & 2) also shares a set of coordinating dies, as shown below. Read on to see how some of these images and dies were used in our projects!

Words From The Heart (Chapters 1 & 2) – Coordinating Dies

Here’s an example Bobbi made featuring one of the image from Heartfelt Notes. She used both Barrels from the Hello Sunshine Stencils 360°™ for this card.

I love the contrasting look between the outer ring of sunrays and the inner ring. These colors give a super warm and energetic vibes. I just love the bright and vibrant look.

The different sizes of die cut circles she used to decorate her card compliment the overall geometric pattern. Loving the white detailing she added.

One of the stencils that we want to showcase today is The Orbit Stencils 360°™. With this 8″ stencil, it is super easy to create 3-Dimensional graphics in minutes! You can easily mix and match sentiments and coordinating geometrical die cuts to achieve some interesting designs!

The Orbit Stencils 360°™

Since there is a “star” symbol as the alignment marker on this stencil, you can definitely try using different turning intervals for blending, in order to get different looks for your projects.

Let’s take a look at Anja’s card. She first cut an A2 panel using the Dots Meet Dashes Large Rectangles Overlays – Stand-Alone Die.

She used a combination of Faded Jeans, Blueprint Sketch and Speckled Egg Distress Oxide Ink on her stencil with a turning interval of 30°. The heat embossed sentiment is from Words From the Heart (Chapter 1). Loving the soft blue palette!

For my card below, I also used a turning interval of 30°. I chose 3 colors for my card namely Hickory Smoke, Twisted Citron, and Wilted Violet. As you may have noticed, I was going light-handed on this as I wanted to achieve a less opaque and more of a transparent look for my spheres.

I used the heart-shaped stamp from Heartfelt Notes and die cut it using the coordinating dies for both the Heartfelt Notes and Warmest Wishes. Then I used our The Sandstone Series – Smokey Eyes – Heavy Weight Premium Cardstock as the card base, since I find that color goes very well with the Hickory Smoke ink.

For the next card, I combined Blueprint Sketch, Peacock Feathers, Cracked Pistachio and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxides. Unlike the above, I decreased the turning interval to 22.5°, making the pattern a little fuller with more layering.

I used a 1:1 format so that I can keep all of the graphics. The sentiment here is from Heartfelt Notes, and I die cut it using the hexagon coordinating die and adhered that with foam tape onto my blended card.

Finally, the last product to showcase in this release is the Botanical Garden Stencils 360°™.

Botanical Garden Stencils 360°™

Jo made a Thanksgiving card that is full of autumn vibes. As you can see, the alignment marker on this stencil is a ‘pair’ of circles. Therefore in order to achieve the stencil’s intended design, you will need to rotate the stencil using a turning interval of 60° (as compared to a ‘single’ circle which represents a 30° interval).

I love the Fall tone that she created here. She chose “Happy Thanksgiving” from Warmest Wishes, and die cut it using the Warmest Wishes and Heartfelt Notes – Coordinating Penguin Perfect Cuts.

I love embellishments that she added, so beautiful.

For my final card, I chose a smaller canvas, namely a 4 3/4” x 4 3/4” cardstock. In the past, blending multi-colors on a stencil design like this would require lots and lots of masking, but not anymore! Our Stencils 360°™ makes this colorful floral pattern super easy to create.

The image here in the centre is from Heartfelt Notes, I stamped the image using Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide.

And that concludes our Fall 2020 Reveal and Inspiration Chapter!! I hope you had fun as much as we did. My goal for this release is to bring to the crafting community something unique and different. I really hope we’ve done that. If you like what you see, please help spread the word!
