It's group post day at Papertrey Ink and today we are all showcasing projects using the new In The Meadow stamp set designed by Nichole. I have to admit... I sort of fell in love with this set and just could not stop creating. So... instead of putting some aside for publications or future blog posts... I thought I would just share them all tonight! It's SUCH a pretty and sweet set!
First, a little simple card that showcases the little snowman die.
He is so sweet huh! I enjoyed adding the little scarf and "coal" bling buttons.
There is a fun snowflake cluster in the set that makes it easy to create a snowfall scene.
The font combinations in the set are very warm and endearing too.
And... isn't that little bird sweet!
This next card really was fun to create.
I sort of woke up this morning with it pictured in my head.It changed a little as I went through the creative process... but it's close to what popped inti my head. (Ok... seriously... bells are so fun to add to cards! It's like adding a little soundtrack! feels SO festive too!)
I love this little sledding child image. It's so fitting to some of what we look forward to during the season. I broke out my chunky plastic glitter for this one.
This next card is a clean and simple one.
I created a snow flurry in the background and then added the snowdrift die cuts over it.
The glitter on the drifts is applied after using a zig 2-way glue pen... chisel tip.
One last quit and cutie... a gift card holder.
I kept the front pretty simple with just a flourish image and some faux stitching.
(Click on this to see it in more detail.) The snowman is so happy looking in his little night time scene. Yes... that's not a real gift card... but it brings to mind that you could also put other things in there... cash, photos... friend/mom/dad coupons. Lots of possibilities!Again... loving these sentiments! They are so warm and sweet.

Lisa, you've created some beautiful cards that wouldn't be too hard to mass produce. Love that in a gal. Color choices are the bomb and appreciate your attention to detail. Your gift card die will be a real hit for those who often give cash, check or gift cards. Great sentiments also!

The "In the Meadow" card reminds me of hot cocoa with peppermint after a play in the snow with the children, too fun!

Last month I bought five holiday stamp sets and coordinating dies. Now, with this month's introductions, I see that I am going to have to buy more. Lovely, beautiful cards. Your designs and paper choices are just great! Thanks!

I just love the set 'In the Meadow'. You absolutely defined the set for me with your interpretations. The sleder was one of my least favorite elements (probably because I do not have children), but I LOVE the look of that tagged card. Thank you for the wonderful inspiration.
