PTI January Blog Hop

Hi everyone! Thanks for taking the time to stop by and check out what I created for this month's PTI blog hop theme: Total Package Challenge. This month, our challenge was to create a card, making sure to decorate the inside as well as the envelope.

I decided to create a Valentine's Day card for my daughter, Lindsay. She loves all things pink and purple, so pink it was! LOL I love these little 2 3/4" x 4" cards, they're such a fun size. :) They fit into the 3" x 4 1/4" pre-made envelopes, but I decided to make my own using some stamped hibiscus burst cardstock and PTI's Simple Valentine paper.

Thanks for stopping by! :)

Supplies:
Stamps - Heart Prints, Background Basics: Petal Power, Turning a New Leaf, Loving Words (Technique Tuesday - Ali Edwards)
Ink - Fresh Snow, Raspberry Fizz, Stazon Black
Paper - Hibiscus Burst, Stamper's Select White, Pure Poppy, Simple Valentine, Raspberry Fizz Bitty Dot
Miscellaneous - Stickles, Deco Edge Punch, Raspberry Fizz Satin Ribbon, Hole Punch, Heart Punch

PTI August Blog Hop

Welcome to my blog! :) This month's challenge was to create a project inspired by any of the attributes of Fall.

I love Fall... I don't know if it's the cooler temperatures, crisp air, or just the gorgeous colors of all the leaves on the trees changing that I look forward to the most! They're all just supah in my book! :)

Thanks for visiting! :)

Ink - Pure Poppy
Paper - Autumn Elegance, Pure Poppy, Summer Sunrise, Vintage Cream

June Papertrey Ink Blog Hop

Thanks for stopping by! I'm so happy I was able to get a chance to play along with the Blog Hop this month. :)



I'm not a huge drinker, but have always thought that Mojitos would make such a wonderful summertime drink... They just look so *refreshing* and perfect for those super hot days! Thanks to the power of the internet, I was able to find the recipe for a "Nojito" (non-alcoholic), so now I can have the yum without the rum. LOL

Have a great one!

Ink - Versamark, Stazon Brown, Chartreuse, New Leaf

Paper - Acetate, Whisper White, Dark Chocolate

Miscellaneous - Crystal Effects, Small Oval Punch, New Leaf Satin Ribbon, Nestabilities Scalloped Rectangles, Cuttlebug Embossing Folder

March PaperTrey Blog Hop

I've never participated in the PaperTrey Blog Hop, so please forgive me if I somehow manage to screw this up... LOL :)

This card came together pretty quickly once I determined how I wanted to lay out the grid and pattern. One thing I love about the Guidelines and Guidelines 2 sets is that you can combine them for even more fun patterns. (The blue and green images are from the Guidelines 2 set, and the pink images are from the first Guidelines set.)

Thanks for stopping by! :)
