So, like many I jumped aboard the Paper Trey Text Boxed crazy train! LOL! And I can’t wait to see what in store next month!
I got tons of Happy Mail yesterday. I have to say that as promised Nicoles white cardstock ROCKS! I cant explain it. Its got a slight texture to it that just absorbs the ink beautifully! Check out my first card-the colors are just amazing on this cardstock.
This was my very first card using this new set! Normally Im anti solid blocks but this one is pretty cool. I am really upset that I lost the larget spiral flower(used on first card below)! UGH!!! Anyone else lose those clear stamps? It always happens! I find it “somewhere” strange in my craft room-eventually. Im totally bummed cause its like my favorite little stamp in the set-
Poppy Trio
You all know PURPLE is my favorite. I LOVE the softness this card has. My Prismacolor markers made this is vibrant too. I also used the Paper Trey Green Thumb set for the flower stems and leaves.
The faux stitching is done using an Onare template.
The cardstock is of course my favorite Martha Stewart! LOL! As is the butterfly punch.
A slide of dreams
I just love this one! Again Black & White-with some gray. I stamped the microscope slide with stazon with the word “dream”. I just like this.
Simple Sunflower
More Martha cardstock & Ribbon. I used the Onare template again for a little something x-tra. Just messing around with the design. I like simple sometimes.
Peaceful tiles
Saved the best for last???
This is GORGEOUS in real life. I stamped the leaf block twice on brushed gold cardstock. Once in craft moss, and the other in craft artichoke. They were then embossed with Ultrathick clear embossing powder.
I then cut up the 2 blocks, and then pieced them togheter using the different greens for the pattern.
Isnt it beautiful?
There is a vellum layer that is stamped in gold with a butterfly pattern bkgd I got at a stamp expo. Gold brads attach it to the Natural ivory base. Tied around some gold cord, and I was finished.
I’d love to hear which you like best, and why! I do have a few more done as well but will save it for more eye candy …..tomorrow?????
Enjoy the day!

Geez! Where do you come up with all of your incredible ideas?! These are all so beautiful!
I really like what you have done with this set! I just received mine in the mail today and can hardly wait to try it out! Love the vellum that you used on the card with the tiles…..beautiful card…..great job!
Wow you were busy! I like the purple one. The contrast of the shades really make it stand out.
They are all beautiful! The top one just made me Gasp! Gorgeous!!!!
My stamps came today! YIPEE!!! all of these are beautiful in their own way. The first card totally catches my eye because of the vibrant purples with the Prismacolor markers…WOW
The second one – I love the Black and White, it’s just so classy and classic!!
The third, that buttery yellow is lovely, and I like it BECAUSE it’s simple 🙂
The last one, well, it’s ELEGANT…same stamp set, 4 completely different ways…I love the gold butterfly BG on the vellum, and the ‘earthy-ness’ of the overall design…
Stunning, dazzling, spectacular, gorgeous, striking, magnificent (finally found that thesaurus!!! 😉 )
For me it’s a tie between the first one and the last. Love the purple and love the tile effect. I didn’t realised you would be able to cut through the UTE, so this is good to know!.
I just wanted to say I love your purple text boxed card. Really Beautiful. Love the faux stitching pattern you did.
Oh My Gosh Lauren! That first card is BEAUTIFUL!!! I love how you colored the flowers and the rhinestone center is perfect! I love the paperpiercing, the paper, …. you get the idea! LOL! 🙂
Oh, soooo nice, can’t wait to see what else you have created. I am waiting for my set to arrive.
I will check back tomorrow!

I absolutely love the first one but they are all pretty.
How can I choose?? If I have to, I will go with the leaf tile. You never fail to awe me.
Are you kidding? Which one do we like best? While I really like them all, I just ADORE that last one…the idea of switching up the tiles for interest is amazing. What a stunning card! You do such beautiful things with stamps, inks, and papers!
drat! your cards are the first that I have seen that makes me want this set! 🙂 thanks for sharing!
These are all beautiful, although I’m partial to the tiles.
Lauren, I like them all but my favorite is the first one. It may be my favorite because purple is my favorite color too, but I think the whole card is just very striking. I think the flowers look like stained glass. Can’t wait to see the others you’ve made.
Gosh, they’re all beatiful, but the last two are my favorites.
*thud* That’s my jaw on the floor Lauren. Oh my goodness…. *thud*
Love them all.
Last one is my favorite.
You should be published girl!!!
I love your stuff.
It is refreshing and original.
Way to go!!!!!!!!!!
A fan:)
Gorgeous cards… I really like the one with the swirly paper piercing! 🙂
