PAPERTREY INK MAKE IT MONDAY #261: USING FLORALS ON A MASCULINE PROJECT

Hello,

I am actually stopping in with a second card for the day. I had some time to put away my most recent PTI order which included my new Stylized Autumn stamps and dies.  I couldn't resist trying out the cute fox in this set so I decided to make a quick card for this week's MIM.

The leaves, flowers, fox and sentiment are all from PTI's Stylized Autumn. I finished it off with some twine.

SEPTEMBER 2016 BLOG HOP CHALLENGE

Hello,

I am excited to join this month's blog hop over at PTI. I haven't had much time to be crafty lately but was happy to make a card yesterday to share with you. Here is this month's inspiration photo:

And here is my card:

I really love this month's color scheme. I pulled out my PTI Winter Woods stamps and dies and started by embossing the branch and leaves in white and gold. I added a little bird and a sentiment from PTI's Cup of Cheer. Lastly, I added some twine and popped up my card on a white card base.

First card for the holidays done! Enjoy the rest of the hop!

CREATE ALONG WITH US: SEPTEMBER 2016

Hello,

It`s hard to believe it has been almost 4 months since I created something. I had hoped to spend time in my craft room this summer but we were just too busy. I`m glad to be back!

I was inspired by this card by Nichole Heady:

And here is my card:

I used my PTI Songbirds stamps and dies as well as my PTI Words of Comfort stamp set. I blended some distress ink on my linen paper and added some PPP sequins.

MAKE IT MONDAY #250: MASKED BACKGROUNDS

Hello,

I had time this past weekend to make one more card for this week's MIM over at Papertrey Ink.

Here it is:

I masked off the edge with some Painter's Tape and then I inked up the background with 3 different Distress Inks. I pulled out my PTI Pedal Pushers stamps and dies, Cloud dies and Picket Fence die to create this little scene. I also tried flicking some water droplets on my card but I wasn't thrilled with the result....I feel like it just looks like I dropped water on it! Not sure I will try it again :)

I didn't have any room for a sentiment so I just added it to the inside:
