Dainty Dragonflies

This morning on my way to work, I jumped as I closed the gate. Resting on the fence post was an enormous dragonfly. 

I'm not really that afraid of them, but it was just a shock to find him there and I didn't want to disturb him! 

Today's post features creations with the new Dainty Dragonflies set released in May 2017. Also available is the matching Dainty Dragonflies Die Set, making these beauties a snap to cut out. 

How many times can you get a stamp set and matching dies for less than $25.00? 

First up on the blog today with this set is Sharon. She's created a beautiful rainbow background, stamped with the There is Only One Happiness sentiment. The dragonflies have been stamped on acetate, giving them an iridescent shimmer.

 

Heidi's been stamping up a herd of dragonflies! This first card is paired with the By Your Side sentiment.

   

 

This gorgeous scene evokes images of a nighttime pond trip. Can you hear the frogs?

 

And Heidi goes with pastels for her final creation. These dragonflies are paired with the Circles Set sentiments.

 

These dainty dragonflies are much cuter than the large guy on my fence post! I hope you enjoyed our Tuesday post.

Vintage Viewpoint

Vintage Viewpoint is back today with a look at the clear stamp set inventory. One of the things that Prickley Pear prides itself on is the versatility of it's stamp and die options. 

Too often, stamp companies release a stamp set with matching die and..that's it! Nothing more. Prickley Pear is proud of the fact that often, there are multiple stamp sets to go with the die sets, creating more variety and versatility in your projects. Plus, it's just good value for money.

  

 Today, we're going to take a look at the Dragonflies set. Here is the set right here, which includes four dragon flies, four sentiments and a couple other images too all for $15.99.

 

 The set pairs with the Dragonfly die set (which will also cut that adorable ladybug in the Dragonfly set). 

Look at these beautiful cards!

Love those Dragonflies so much you're looking for more? No problem! We have Dragonflies 2. Three more dragonflies, plus two butterflies, an additional four sentiments and antenna.

 

And, here are more beautiful cards with the set.

 

We'll explore those butterflies in another segment of Vintage Viewpoint. In the meantime, you're welcome to visit the Prickley Pear store and check out all the samples in the stamp gallery.

Thursday Inspiration with the Design Team

Happy Thursday!

Here we are again with a set of fabulous cards from the Prickley Pear Design Team. 

Sharing their projects this week are Heather, Heidi, Irit and Michelle. We've got quite a mix of stamps, from recent New Release products to florals and birds.

Check out Michelle's card using the new red rubber stamps Bicycle and Let Your Faith Be Bigger. Looking for those adorable flowers? She's stamped them from the new Frog on Mushroom image. Clever!

 Heather pulled out her recently acquired Vases clear set. The vase was stamped and then masked in order to add the flowers. The sentiment comes from the Hibiscus 2 clear set.

  

Heidi's used the adorable Mini Birds clear set, with matching Mini Birds die set. Did you know there are two clear sets that pair with this die? The sentiment is a red rubber option called One Smile.

 

This set that Irit has featured is also from our recent new release, called Dainty Dragonflies. The color is just beautiful on these bugs, cut out with the matching Dainty Dragonflies die set. You'll find the Congratulations sentiment in the store too!

 

Such fantastic inspiration! All the products shown here today can be found in the Prickley Pear store.

Don't forget, we have a Facebook and would love to connect with you there too.
