Last Day

Today will be the last day that you will be able to purchase the new collection from Stacey Yacula ~ Happy Trails and Once Upon A Time at a discounted price of over 30% off.  So if you have been pondering, maybe today is just the day to make the purchase!
 
Just to share with you another project that I've done using the new some of the stamps from the new collection ~ Happy Trails.


 
The sky's THE LIMIT



I coloured the Mountain background with some light wash of watercolours and blended the grassland with a distress ink.  As the hot air balloon is the main focus of the card, I chose brighter colours from my Copic markers to give it a more vibrant look.
 
Another project that I've done up just a few days back is a bookmark using Once Upon A Time collection.

 
a new chapter awaits
 
 

For this bookmark, I used just half of the stamped image from the Book template to create the background and I also blended it with a light touch of distress ink.  I know bookmark is supposed to be flat so that it fits nicely in between the pages of the book but I just can't help but want to give it a popped up effect and so I stick on a little foam dot just to make Mia stand out in the bookmark!
 
I hope you like the projects that I've shared today and if you would like to see more wonderful works with the new collections, just head over to here! Last reminder! ~ today will be the last day to grab both collections at a Puple Onion Designs with discounted price of a slight more than 30% off so don't wait too long :)

See you again real soon!

New Collection ~ Happy Trails!

Hello everyone!

It's been a long while since my last post!  Well, I'm glad to be back sharing a piece of great news!  If you haven't know by now, Stacey Yacula has launched a new stamp collection ~ Happy Trails!



In fact, there are 2 new collections available right now at Purple Onion DesignsHappy Trails and Once Upon a Time!  It can't get any better than this!

Happy Trails consist of 33 individual cute stamps that are related to travelling and vacation theme stamps.  As for Once Upon a Time, it consist of 4 reading related stamps.

For a limited period only, you will be able to purchase both new collections at a discounted price of more than 30% off!  The Happy Trails set is priced at USD120.00 and Once Upon A Time is at USD15.00.  Offer ends at 11 June so be sure to grab the 2 new collections if you really really like them like I do! Both sets are now available at Purple Onion Designs!

Along with the 2 new collections, there are also the perfect sets of sentiments that goes well with the new stamps!  The Journey Sentiment set simply works well with the Happy Trails.  As for the Great News Sentiment set, it goes hand in hand with Once Upon A Time!.  Both sets of sentiments are really versatile enough to be used for any other stamps that you might have!

Sharing with you today are 2 projects that I've done using some of the stamps with the new Happy Trails!




I decided to keep the VW Bus as the main focus of the card and so I coloured it with Copic markers, the Country road background is coloured using a very light wash of water colours.



 

Stamps doesn't just have to be used on cards! It can be used on 3D projects, mini boxes etc etc... the possibilities are endless!

I really like how the luggage set matches the little luggage box that I have cut out using my Silhouette Cameo machine.   The little luggage box can be used for keeping stationary, knick-knacks and more :)

If you like to see more wonderful projects done using Happy Trails and Once Upon A Time, please head straight over to Purple Onion Designs blog!  I'm sure you will be truly inspired by projects of the Design Team!

Come back again soon and I'll be sharing a few more projects from the new collections!

Stay calm and craft on!
