Well Friends, it's the last day of my countdown for Larger Than Life ($15) and the Larger Than Life die ($16). It will be available for purchase through Papertrey Ink on Nov. 15th or at 9pm on the 14th if you live in the PST time zone like I do. :) It's been a great past five days... I have loved creating these projects for you and have truly appreciated your excitement and comments! (((hugs)))
Without further ado...my first card.
I thought I would share another true combination card using Life and Larger Than Life. Again... this gives you a fun look at the scale differences as well as the way they reflect one another.
So many possibilities open up with the larger mini flowers in the set. (There are two included.)
Now for my final card... highlighting the die.
One great plus that comes with dies is being able to cut felt and other things like light chipboard. It's such a pretty flower in felt... and very easy to accomplish! This flower part of the die is at the end of the die plate so you don't waste any felt. You can also trim snippets off and place them on the die directly over the die image to keep waste as a minimal.
I love white flowers....there is just something so elegant about them. Oh... and I used A Little Argyle, Background Basics: Christmas and Text Style to create the backgrounds for this card.
Well, that wraps up my countdown for Larger Than Life and the Larger Than Life Die! I would love to hear what your favorite project was using these two products!
Don't forget that there is another group post today... scroll down to see my contribution!

Lisa, I had a hard time picking just "one" card. I
love them all, especially the ones that use both
Life and Larger Than Life. I love the way the size
and direction of the stamps compliment one another.
However, if pushed, I would have to say that your
gray ensemble of cards from the first day has to be
my favorites. Those cards are so classy and elegant.
Just beautiful!

I am most excited about your set this release, especially after seeing all of your creations! I think that is saying a lot considering how much is being released tonight. I think in reality, this set will get a ton of use, especially with the dies to match. I'm so happy about that! Looking forward to more Poppy releases!

Both of your cards are beautiful! Love the tiny flowers on the first set and the die-cut felt flower on the second! :)

Hi Lisa, I love your new Life set and die cuts. This was the first set that my Mom and I bought and have always and still do think that it is a beautiful set. I can't wait to purchase the set and die cuts. Thanks for sharing your stunning cards. Have a wonderful weekend.

Lisa -- I have loved your Life stamp set from the very beginning and have used it many time for card sets and other cards. THESE stamps and dies are the perfect addition. Your samples this week have been amazing and, as usual, have me anxious for release. GOTTA GETTA DIE before they are gone! I am already practicing my keyboard skills to make sure I can weigh in at midnight! Woo Hoo!

A favorite? You mean I actually have to pick just ONE??? No way - I just love them ALL. Life has always been a favorite set of mine so I am thrilled that Larger than Life is now here, complete with dies. Fabulous job! You made me V-E-R-Y happy!

So, really hard to pick a favorite but I do like the grey & white cards you did at the begining with the glittered flowers. I also liked the scrap page you did too. And the fact that you can make such pretty felt flowers so easily with the dies are awesome. Yeah hard to pick a favorite!
