Well, I can honestly say that today has been a day that I have been eagerly awaiting for a few months now. Today I get to introduce all of you to a stamp design concept that will have you anxiously waiting to get inky…something new, fresh and fun that you simply won't be able to live without!
When I designed this set, it was one of those *aha* moments that I sometimes have…where everything came together perfectly just as I had envisioned it in my head.
Happy Trails is a set is full of things that leave behind "trails"…butterflies, ink pens and so much more. Each sentiment features a large script word with an unfinished "tail" at the end. The set contains three different scrolled tails that you can add to the ends of these words and finish off with your desired image. Coordinating dies make this set easy to layer and utilize unique color combinations!
The details.
- Happy Trails will be available for sale on June 15th.
- It will retail for $24.
- Happy Trails contains a total of 26 stamps (1 dragonfly, 1 butterfly, 1 quill, 1 pen, 1 pencil, 1 scribble, 1 paper airplane, 2 birds, 3 trails 2 ink spatters and 12 sentiments)
- The dragonfly measures 1-1/2" x 3/4". The butterfly measures 1" x 3×4". The pen & pencil each measure 1-3/4" x 3/16". The paper airplane measures 1-1/4" x 3/8'. The bird(s) measure 1-1/8" x 3/4" each. The quill measures 1-1/2" x 3/8".
- A coordinating Happy Trails die will be available for purchase separately for $5. The die will cut out shapes that coordinate with all of the images in this set except the quill.
I have some really cool things to show you today, so let's get onto the projects! With twenty-five cards made in the last few days, I decided I wanted to step a bit out of my normal comfort zone today and try a few new things. I did a bit of exploring online to gain some inspiration.
I stumbled across this piece of jewelry on Etsy and instantly fell in love with the colors and design and decided to try to re-interpret that into a card.
I got a bit *artsy* and layered images in ways that I have never done before and I am just thrilled to pieces with the results. I started by stamping the leaf image from Beautiful Blooms around my card front in SUmmer Sunrise, followed by the dotted flower from Daydreamer in Lemon Tart.
On a separate sheet of Vintage Cream cardstock I stamped YOF: Roses and YOF: Mums images in Smokey Shadow and cut them out. I then layered them along the edge of my card front and then squared them off from the back to fit within the card cover. The sentiment is stamped in True Black.
The "trail" was added with Smokey Shadow ink, with the butterfly die-cut and then stamped it with the coordinating image from Happy Trails in Simply Chartreuse. All of the images in this set feature a fine corduroy ribbing to them. I love this subtle texture, it really adds a lot to the image and makes it look more textile in nature.
I'm really pleased with this project and it was so fun to create…I just threw all my standard "rules" aside and let the creativity flow. I really enjoyed it! I would love to see YOUR take on the inspiration piece I shared above…please feel free to link your results in the comments section!
Now for something a bit more whimsical in nature. I thought I would pair up the dragonfly image from Happy Trails with Friendship Jar.
I layered patterned papers at the bottom of the card front and also some little pieces of trim made with my pinking shears and Spring Rain cardstock. The star was punched from white cardstock and covered with glitter.
I stamped the jar in CVersaMark and heat embossed it with Filigree White embossing powder. I then covered the Kraft cardstock with Background Basics: Twinkle using Fresh Snow ink. I stamped the trail with VersaMark and used it as my guide to pierce holes for stitching. I stitched the trail with purple embroidery floss. I die-cut the dragonfly from white cardstock and stamped it with the coordinating image from Happy Trails.
For the sentiment, I die-cut an Angled Label and stamped the coordinating frame from Label Basics using Plum Pudding ink. The sentiment (from Daydreamer) was added using Smokey Shadow ink. I love the colors of this card as well as the "softness" it seems to have.
I had to get out those adorable little animals from Sweet Baby again and this time I paired the elephant up with the new pencil image from Happy Trails. Having the die for the pencil is SO great because it would have been a bit tedious cutting it out!
I die-cut the elephant from Vintage Cream cardstock and stamped the elephant from Sweet Baby in Spring Moss. For the pencil, I die-cut it from Vintage Cream as well and stamped the coordinating image from Happy Trails with Summer Sunrise and Smokey Shadow inks. I added a bit of Melon Berry Copic to the eraser for color. The "thank you, teacher" sentiment (also from Happy Trails) was stamped onto this Library Ledger paper in Smokey Shadow.
I die-cut a heart using a Heart Prints die and Melon Berry cardstock. The heart was stamped with one of the small medallions from Mehndi Medallion (more about that later on this week). I stitched the heart in place with my sewing machine.
The Kraft card base was stamped with Polka Dot Basics II using VersaMark ink. Isn't this just the cutest? I can hardly wait to send this in to the teachers when school starts for us in a few weeks!
I have another piece of art that I found inspirational today, if you'll allow me to indulge. This is a painting I ran across on Etsy.
And here's the card I created as a result of the beautiful piece of art I used as my inspiration. Lots of image layering for fun artsy effects!
The sentiment was stamped in True Black and then I added the birds across the top in Hawaiian Shores…both images are from Happy Trails.
In the corner, I stamped splatters from Grunge Me in both Ocean Tides & Hawaiian Shores. I then heat embossed the trees from Through the Trees with White Filigree Embossing Powder. I love the way this turned out and the Grunge Me set is definitely getting a lot more use than I initially expected!
Now for something a bit more masculine. The card front for this projects is made of strips of True Black, Smokey Shadow, Silver Shimmer & Soft Stone cardstocks. After assembling the strips together, I added the trail image from Happy Trails. I die-cut the paper airplane from white cardstock and stamped it with the coordinating image as well as Background Basics: Newsprint.
I die-cut this red felt heart and stitched it in place with a button. This definitely says I love you without getting too carried away!
The "Sending You" sentiment is heat embossed with Clear Filigree Embossing Powder, with the secondary sentiment added underneath using True Black ink. I had fun creating this card since it was a bit more modern and out of the ordinary for me! And I adore how it turned out!
Now that you have seen my creations, let me show you a few things that our talented team has put together for you today! Prepare to be amazed!!!!

I love this idea! I can’t wait to see this on my stamp desk. 😉 I adore the coordinating die, too. It’s wonderfully versatile!

You’ve outdone yourself, Nichole! I adore Happy Trails and can’t wait to play with this set! I love all the images, but I think the pen is my favorite. It brings back fond memories of when I received my first fountain pen.
Wow, the samples are all gorgeous and really showcase the versatility of Happy Trails. I especially love Mish’s notebook set and the way she used patterned paper with her border dies. What a great set and so glad it has a die set to match.
I love it, I love it, I love it!!!
Love, love the details on the butterfly and dragonfly, the texture is amazing and I love the sentiments as well. Yeah, can’t wait to see the full reveal on this one.

Oh wow…this looks like such a fabulous set!! I can’t wait to see it in its entirety!! Really loving all the fun trails that you’ve added on your projects…especially the stitched ones!!
For me this month is all about Happy Trails and the Gracious Vases. Of course I want others like: Tag it 5 and Daydreamer, to “help” with my free shipping 😉 But in reality if it weren’t for Happy Trails and Gracious Vases I would wait until I “should” buy my “wants”.
This set will make me so happy! All the projects are wonderful!!! Yet another must-have and I thought I would be able to skip this month…
I love the Happy Trails set! I can’t wait to see all the sentiments included with the set. Are you working on a Happy Trails Set 2 yet? You can do it!
I love the new dies, the paper airplane is so cute!
I never would have expected this from the sneak peak paper airplane. I am blown away. What a terrific set. Wow!!!!
Just amazing breathing and beautiful. Wow
The sentiments are so well done.
Awesome projects from everyone. Thank you for this very inspiring post. I have to say, your first card just blew me away, Nicole! Everything about it is so unique, I love the colors, the stamps, the design~it’s simply beautiful 🙂
Wow! Everything is awesome.
All of your projects today are fabulous! You continue to amaze me with your endless ideas and projects.
These new stamp sets will work wonderfully with a lot of my PTI sets. I absolutely love the Grunge Me set, it gives cards an extra dimension. That’s one thing I love about my PTI stamps, they seem to integrate with older sets so I never worry about buying them because I can mix and match and come up with new designs.
I DO love the happy trails set, and the notebook and matching cards, etc that Michelle made have inspired me today! I’d love to start creating them right now!!
this is another versatile set which I am sure to need lol. Great work ladies. Lesley
I LOVE this concept! With my husband getting deployed in July I have a gazillion ideas spinning around in my head for cards that I can send him. I find it is hard to say “I love you” in different “masculine” ways. But the cards you created today show how it can work. Thank you so much, this is definately a must have on my list.
I’m speechless…in a good way.
Gorgeous projects girls!
I was inspired most by Heathers and Betsys projects as I just got my postmarks stamp set in the mail today so can’t wait to play with them. Adding Happy Trails to my list.
Thanks for the chance to win.
Wow, so beautiful and innovative! Love all of the different takes possible with just one set!
Wow such unique ideas! Your imagination knows no bounds! Love what you did with the new set.
Love how the projects showcase the versatility of the different sets!
These are so F U N !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is clever!! Such a fun idea and loved your artsy examples!! Really look forward to this set!!
Robin
Love the new sets, especially with the cooridinating dies. And the DT did another fantastic job with this one!
Another fabulous new concept from your amazingly creative brain Nichole. One wonders where your thoughts will take us all next!
Love all the creative ideas. One of my fav is the little album Heather made
Love the concept of the trail stamps – what endless possibilities. And again so cool projects. Thanks for sharing 🙂
Wow, this is definitely my favorite set of this release! Your cards are so inspired and I LOVE the possibilities that this set presents! Wonderful!
Fab projects today – wasn’t convinced by the sneek peak, but now I’m seeing more of what this set has to offer my view is definately changing! This is a lovely set, and looks like it could have lots of uses.
I have to admit that when I first saw the Happy Trails set, I didn’t quite get it. But as I looked at the projects made with it, it began to grow on me. I think my favorite might have been the notepad that Michelle Wooderson made.
Oh wow!!!!!! This took my breath away and ladies – you really stretched creatively with these projects with such amazing results! Nichole, your elephant holding the pencil is the cutest thing EVER and your grungy trees are really beautiful. Danielle, your bird is outrageously awesome and hilarious! Heather, your vintage look with the postmarks and quill hit it out of the ballpark. Jessica, watercolours hold a special place in my heart and your card took my breath away. I could go on and on about every single project, but I’m getting a bit syrupy and I have this odd feeling a Gong Show judge is going to come along and give me the hook any second now! lol
Oh my goodness what wonderful things I see tonight. Lovveeee the Happy Trails and the dies!!! Totally awesome.
What a fun concept – I’m already thinking about which of my existing stamps will work with a “trail”!. And so many beautiful projects – you really have the greatest design team!
I LOVE the cards and projects today–but “by far” my favorite is the You Color My World watercolor card by Jessica. I will surely be trying a similar card!
I really like this set. I love the background paper that Michele made. My other favorite is the tree card based on the Etsy artwork.
Love it and I want it all
I love it and I want it all
What a great set!! I love the ‘trails’! I think that the bird was the most inspiring but I am a huge pen lover – so to have pen stamps with trails . . . love it!
Beautiful projects Nichole! Can’t wait to see tomorrows!
What a COOL set! The DT projects show it so well! I like your dragonfly, jar card! Love the look! Your “Dreams take flight …” card is gorgeous and I’m impressed with the effect of the splatters stamp … so neat! 🙂
The variety of projects is just amazing, love the watercolour work.
I was going to wait to order a whole load of goodies for my Christmas present later in the year…..but I really have to have this now!!! LOL
Will have to stay up extra late on release night here in England to make sure I get this stamp and die set..love it!:)
xoxo Sioux

I love your trees and plane cards (funny how Maile had the same idea to stamp with Newsprint)! Danielle’s bird is fantastic, and I also really like Erin’s doodle card.
Oeh, gosh, Nichole, as soon as you mentioned the name of this new set, I was so enthousiastic about it, thought it was going to be awesome, and it is!!! I love it already! Can’t wait to see the entire set and those dies are the best! I looove writing, so these pencils are perfect for me!!! Thanks for designing this awesome new set!!!

SUPER projects today! This is my favorite stamp set introduced this month. I’ve been wishing for a beautiful bird die, and this little bird is so graceful.
Wow! Beautiful cards! The Happy Trails set is so cute!
Love so many new releases once again this month! My favorite on this post is the dragonfly! Thanks
Great concept with limitless possibilities. The ideas are flying….
So far my favs are Happy Trails & Daydreamer. The whole nature, flower themes are really inspiring. Thanks Nichole.
I think this is going to be my must have set from this month!! So many great ideas!! Would love to win it!!!
The design team’s creation’s this month really opened my eyes to the versatility of your new set! What a wide variety of ideas in their projects….so fresh and exciting!
now I see how hard the job of choosing designs must be.
the intricate work of Michelle and Melissa,Lisa’s adorable card,Jessica’s wonderful card complete with tutorial,Heather and Betsy inspiring me to use stamps I have,Danielle’s offering complete with feathered friend and Erin’s cute cards were all great but my favourite was a tie between Maile and Dawn.both offered stunningly simple cards that I think even I could make but living in a household of boys I love cards that are suitable for my male family.

Happy Trails is BRILLIANT! I love how the images, trails, and spatters all work together to provide so many different creative options. And so many ways to use with other sets, too…. I’m seeing trails with the balloons in Up Up and Away, the plane in Fly Away, etc, etc. 🙂 LOTS of possibilities!

I would love to see you do a Top Chef type show where you have a set # of paper crafting supplies and you have 30 minutes to create a project-wouldn’t that be fun to watch?! Happy Trails really lends itself to all kinds of creativity. In. Love. <3

I know I say it probably every release, but you & your team produce the most versatile stamp sets! Happy Trails is no exception … from the clean & simple style of your “Sending You” card to the shabby chic-ness of Betsy’s set of postcard-inspired notecards. The possibilities are endless and you & your creative team provide so much inspiration! Thank you!
So happy to be the recipient of one of your “aha” moments! I truly am itching to get inky……..
This is an amazing set. I loved Jessica’s watercolor piece. It’s a work of art. This is a must have set.

Happy Trails, indeed! This is one happy stamp set! I just love how the design team used this same stamp set, yet used so many different styles. How versatile!
Oh ye of little faith. Yes – I know I should be a believer by now, but I tricked myself into thinking I wouldn’t need this Happy Trails set, then I read your explanation of the design concept and saw all of your marvelous projects and of course I need it. From now on, I’ll just go into release weeks knowing I’ll need everything. LOL! Just wonderful!
Thanks for sharing your great ideas. Can’t wait to order.
What a talented group of ladies! It would be impossible to pick a favorite-everyone’s project is so unique. Thanks, Nichole for sharing where you find some of your inspiration, your designs are amazing.
I cannot wait until the Happy Trails stamp collection and dies are released! This set is going to enhance my collection of stamps more than I can say. I have several butterfly, dragonfly, and bird stamps, but none are as unique and versatile as those in the Happy Trails collecton. I liked all of the posts and ideas shown thus far, but especially liked Lisa Johnson’s butterfly card. My own ideas for this collection are already piling up. Thank you for all of the creativity, insight, and just plain brilliance shown in making each and every one of Papertrey Ink’s stamp collections. You amaze me with each release!
I’m loving this new set… am sure this is going to be my favourite set for this release… 🙂 already thinking of all the possibilities that can be created from this set! Can’t wait!

I’m lovin’ it! Thanks for showing us your inspiration as well! It’s so fun to see where some of the fun begins.
The dies make every card design so much more crisp and elegant. It’s the extra “je ne sais quoi” that makes them just stand out from the crowd. Yes, you can cut out a pencil pretty quickly, but the perfect die and perfect stamp makes it a WOW. Thanks DT!
Happy Trails looks like a fun set. Love the versatility of this set.
Really great set, DT did an amazing job with the group post.

LOVE them! Love!! Another must have set!
Looks like this is going to be another big release! Happy Trails is such a different interesting set. I am already thinking about different cards and sentiments that will go with it.

Those Happy Trails are just fantastic–what a creative set of products! I especially love that “Sending You a hug with a fold in the middle card.” So sweet!
Another absolutely amazing stamp set! Lots of possibilities with this one!
What a great set – and so versatile! And I love the notebook that Michelle made using it.
Had problems with my last post, so I apologize if you get two. This looks like another absolutely amazing set! Lots of possibilities!
Nature stamps are one of my faves, but alas I don’t own too many of them. Maybe I’ll be the lucky winner this time! The Happy Trails looks really interesting.
Love those dies!!! The inspiration pieces are indeed an inspiration….talk about an a–ha moment!!!
Grunge me and the birds!!!! Wooooo!!!
What an awesome projects today! SUCH CREATIVITY from everyone! I am loving the new stamp set with matching die. The sentiments are so wonderful!!!
So many fun options with this set. It is a must have!!! Can hardly wait….
Love Happy Trails! Very versatile set!! I’m loving the Daydreamer sentiments, too! Great projects to show off these releases!
Happy Trails has a lot of great designs! I think most papercrafters have a love of pens, pencils & related things.
Your black, grey, and white Sending You card hit me right between the eyes. First thing I plan to do with Happy Trails is to stamp a trail “string”, complete with pen or pencil image and add Zentangles all around and in the string! Images are perfect to use for a card, or in my trusty small and medium Moleskin journals. Oh, am I ever excited about this pending project!
What great cards today Nichole. I love the inspiration you drew from. I can’t wait to see what the other designers have to offer.
Fabulous cards. Everything looks so great. Can’t wait for tomorrow night.
What GREAT inspiration! I would have never thought that this set would be so versatile! Wonderful release!
Fun cards! I like the one you did with the grunge set, very pretty and love all that layering!
I love the Happy Trails set! So pretty!
I can’t believe the endless possibilities with this set! The font combination is dreamy, especially paired up with the “tail”.
I just love how the tails make the paper airplanes, dragon & butterflies fly right off the page.
oooh, this one is looking really really fabulous. i love the texture of the stamp images and the wonderful trails! Even the ink splotches are so cute i just have to have them! This set seem to just pull creativity out of everyone. Fabulous samples!!!
Such a nice array of projects shown and the possibilities are endless. thanks so much for inspiring the creativity in all of us!
I love Jessica’s card and her post showing her different attempts at getting to it. It shows that even someone so talented needs to make a few attempts before getting it right. Such a fun set that can be used in so many ways!
This is absolutely the most innovative stamp set I’ve ever seen! I just love it!! And what a versatile set to make cards for the men, women and children in our lives. I envision many great projects being made with this wonderful set. A definite purchase in my book!!
I would buy the Happy Trails set just to make Maile’s newspaper airplanes!

Goodness which project DIDN’T inspire me? I love them all but really loved how Heather pulled off that nostalgic look. I don’t normally like that style but she won me over…and of course the feather plume helped! =)
Wonderful new stamp set and inspiring projects!
These are all so lovely – well done!
The sets are so versatile this month. I keep thinking about the paper airplane. With newsprint? So cute!
I am in LOVE with Happy Trails! Moving right to my must-have list! The sentiments are fabulous, and as an illustrator I love the pen/pencil/quill images! I also love the way the sentiments and trails will work with older sets. Gosh, I SOOooo hope I win this day’s drawing, it would be a way to let MY dreams take flight!

Oh my! I love so many things about this release. Are you ever going to give me a month that I can just say “I think I’ll pass!”
That is such a tough question, I can’t pick just one . . . the wee airplanes on Maile’s card? The delicately lovely dragonfly on Melissa Phillip’s card? Lisa Johnson’s cool green and blue? Or the purples with the jar and dragonfly in your card? Great idea by the way, loved seeing another use for the jar stamp!!! That jar! So versatile!
BRILLIANT! I especially LOVE happy trails—the paper airplane, the pencil, the dragonfly!!! So fun!!!
I am loving Happy Trails! The dies are the best! Keep them coming! The cards are awesome can’t wait to make some trails!

Beautiful stuff. I can’t wait for this release – I’m way over budget. I love the die cuts this month…
I’m so bowled over I don’t know where to start! I have been without power for a couple of days because of the storms here and have been bouncing off the walls angry that it had to happen during the release! I don’t think there’s nearly enough room for me to comment on everything so I’ll just say that Happy Trails is brilliant and your projects are stunning… gotta love “ah-ha moments” !!! The possibilities are endless !!!!

Great idea for a set! Love the trails, sentiments and images.

Beautiful.
Beautiful set with dies! Love all the projects too.
They’re all fabulous, but I absolutely adore Jessica’s colorful watercolor card. Gorgeous!
I find it so interesting how you take an “inspiration” piece and turn it into a card. Just wonderful. Also wondering if you could cut the bottom off the onesie and turn it into a dress . . . maybe??
I am completely inspired by your paper airplane card! It’s just darling!
I really enjoy the sentiments as well as the whimsical swirls the new set offers. And the splatter mark is such a fun idea, too!

I like everything you all have worked so hard on. Must be so much fun to work with the new goodies before they are ready for sale but wow what a way to show them off…I love Heathers feather fountion pen and those perfectly on purpose ink blots under the pen. Of course the fluttering butterflys flit gracefully across the card. Makes me feel like summer while it is chilly here.thanks all!
Fantastic set. I think the paper airplane is my favorite, no the fountain pen or maybe the quill.
Guess I love it all
I love the pen and pencil in this set especially with the happy trail following it. Jessica’s card was really cool. I totally want to break out some watercolors and see what happens.
I love the card you made with through the trees and all the splatters on it. A great wash of blending colors — it was very soothing.
I just love the Happy Trails images and sentiments – they will be so versatile especially with the postage set. All of your projects this month have been so amazing I cant wait to order! I haven’t had time to use all of last months sets yet – but don’t tell any one!
I can’t wait to use this set! It looks like a really fun and original collection of images and sentiments. I think this would be a great addition that could spark a lot of creativity, especially with mixing an matching with other stamp sets.
I love the Happy Trails set. I can’t wait! I have always loved dragon flies and can think of a million things to do with that set.
Ohhh these are gorgeous! I’m a big fan of butterflies anyway, but I’m lovin the little paper plane too!

Nichole, that set is indeed fabulous!!! Love all your cards, but my favorite is the make a wish card!!!!
Love it – the “trails” have so many uses and they are so hard to draw sometimes to look good – perfect set!

Wow I can see why you are so excited to introduce this set. The trails are endless, each with their own character. This is certainly going to be another winning stamp set.
I loved so many of the cards and examples today. Loved your interpretation of the jewelery piece. Loved the chicken by Danielle Flanders, Mish’s card with all the great colors and the set she made. Melissa Phillips gorgeous take on her tablet. Loved Heather Nichols card with the Feather. The one card I loved the most was the one with the mason jar with the dragon fly inside, with the stitched trailing. Absolutely loved everything about that card! Look forward to this release and all the sets so far!
I think your paper airplane card is my favorite, but I really like the card based on the jewelry too.
I really love what Jessica did with her watercoloring. I think she took it to the next level. It was nice to see a project incorporating another medium. Thanks as always for the opportunity to win PTI products.

Gorgeous projects, Nichole! And I love what your team has done too. Those “trails” of butterflies and paper airplanes are so cool, and I love what Dawn McVey did with the pencil and stamps too. Such a winning release!
Wow, these are awesome! What a great set!
What a novel idea! I love the idea of trails! The vintage pen is fabulous!
Oh what inspired me? What did I like the best? Are you kidding?! ALL of it! I have to say I love the card you made with Through the Trees, Happy Trails & Grunge me! What an amazing creation!

Happy Trails stamps and dies are going to be my new go to set I just won’t be able to do without. I just adore the trails and I love the “you color my world”. Can’t wait.
When I read the title of today’s stamp set, I immediately thought of the Roy Rogers-Dale Evans song with the same title. There’s a line in “Happy Trails” that fits my reaction to these incredible projects you and the DT have shared: “It’s the way you ride the trail that counts.” You ladies have ‘ridden the trail’ with wit, imagination, and beauty. Thank you for sharing.
I am completely in awe of the design team and all of the projects they come up with. This set is truly amazing and what a great concept!
Oh, the onesie die and baby stamps are a must have. So many endless possibilities with these new goodies.
Love all the wonderful card/projects! Awesome release, yet again.

wow, i am so exited for this month’s new releases. so many possibilities and ideas are floating in my head right now. thanks for a chance to win this great prize.
OMG this is one of the coolest sets I’ve seen in awhile, love it!
I fell in love with the idea of “trails” when the Little Lady set came out in the first year of Papertrey. I have used that set many times and have used that one trail behind butterflies, bees etc. I would love to have this new set with all the different options and the very curly trails. It will make some awesome cards.
I wasn’t too sure about this set when I first saw the peeks, but now I’m sold. I absolutely love it. There are so many uses for it, whatever your style, arty, shappy chic, CAS. Love it.
I’m absolutely in love with the paper airplane image. Amazing projects as always!!
Such a fun set…Happy Trails! LOTS and LOTS of uses! Looks amazingly fun to play with!
Love how you shared your inspiration for your cards…fun to see your creative take from a piece! The grunge me set is one I need! Thanks Nichole and team PTI!

These are so fun and whimsical! Love them!!!
I was intrigued on the 5th and I’m even more so now. Can’t wait til the full reveal. This may be a must have!
I am amazed by the way the design team combines different stamp sets and dies…it’s so inspirational! Thanks for sharing your creativity!
Very cute set! I love all the coordinating dies. Your splatter painting interpretation is incredible! I love it.
This is an awesome set! So unique! Love it!
Another day of great projects!
I can’t wait to see the coordinating stamp set, as the shapes of the new happy trails dies are a-DOR-able!! I predict copy-cat sets popping up all over cyberspace in the next couple of months. This release has SO many unique sets with something for everyone. Great job!!
Happy Trails looks like another clever & cute stamp set. I really like the card that was inspired by the blue splatter painting. A really unique looking card!
I adore your interpretations of beautiful inspiration items that you find. I think it is pretty cool that you can use Papertrey products in such unique ways to not just mimic the inspiration, but to create a result even more inspiring than the original. Today’s post made me happy!
This “Happy Trails” set is just wonderful, and looks like it will be useable for so many things!
Oh goodness, where to begin… I love the artsy samples you’ve all made. Makes me want to dive right in and make something with them, too. I can’t wait to get my hands on these sets!
