Hello friends! Today is the forth day in my countdown to two of my newest products for Papertrey Ink. Larger Than Life stamp set and it's coordinating die, Larger Than Life Die )If you are just joining in on the fun make sure that you check out THIS blog post by Nichole where she shows some BRILLIANT projects using these as well as some other goodies!
On to the creative stuff!
This first card is one I made for a vivacious friend who is under the weather. I wanted something that had a little punch to brighten her day!
I stamped the flower images from Life and Larger Than Life toward the side of the panel... and the large sentiment toward the other side. The crystals add a touch more elegance...don't you think?
This is yet another example of the scale difference between Larger Than Life and Life. I wanted to make note that the new images were put side by side when I was choosing the size of the Larger Than Life images; I wanted to make sure that they could work together, if people wanted to use them together. Also, I wanted to keep them at a one sheet, $15, set to keep the set economical. :)
OK....next is a little gift bag...
I can tell you how happy I am about the balance I can add to projects because of the opposite facing images... and the die cuts!!! Don't get me wrong... Life is an amazing set... these two together are just SO synergistic that I'm giddy!
Here is a close up of the bag. I really like how this flower looks in white on kraft.
So... I've been peeking at the incredible DT projects rolling into the soon to be revealed PTI gallery... and let me tell you... WOW! I can't wait for you all to see all of the inspirational projects that they've been creating! Meanwhile, check out our group posts tonight for some instant inspiration! (see the post below for that!)
See you tomorrow for one last countdown post for Larger Than Life!

Outstanding set, Lisa. Can't wait to get my hands on
Larger Than Life and the dies. This set does provide
a beautiful balance to the Life stamps. So excited!

I love your gift bag! It is beautiful. Can you tell me what stamp set "Mini Messages" is?

I just had to tell you, Lisa, that when I scrolled down and saw your paper bag, it actually took my breath away!!!! I just loved everything about it--the color scheme; the layout; the use of the images; just everything. I love using botanical/nature-themed images, and I use your "Life" set all of the time. Of all of the sets that will be available this month, yours is the set I am most excited about. And then, to know that there are coordinating dies--be still my heart! Congratulations on another winning design!

Lisa, Larger Than Life is such a cleaver set, and the die cuts too! Great idea! Your friends & family must feel so blessed to get all these simply beautiful cards and well packaged treats. I am often very inspired by the little bags, baskets, jars, and various containers you do up! It gets me going on my own little gifts list. Thank you.

Lisa, your stamping style has always attracted me, and this Larger than Life set is a prime example of why this is so. Life was one of the first sets I purchased after discovering PTI and I love that this new set coordinates with it so perfectly. You do good work!
