New toys from Papertrey!

Wow, I think I have a new favorite stamp set! Papertrey Ink's new Guide Lines Two set is just fabulous. Nichole is such a great designer - she truly thinks of everything. This set has lots of interesting geometric pieces for building your own backgrounds. The design starts with a grid of lines and circles. Then you add the various medallion-type stamps, using the grid as a guide. All of the medallions have nice little features that make them easy to line up. I stamped a full sheet of this background, with color selection help from my eight-year-old daughter. I still have enough of it to make at least a few more cards. Very fun! I can't wait to make some more backgrounds in different colors and patterns.
