PTI Make it Monday #283

Papertey Ink's Make it Monday is all about watercolor backgrounds this week.

This challenge appealed to me because real water colors were used. I was able to use the set I bought last year but have yet to use. I used the hydrangea stamp from Friendship Jar Summer Fillers.

What a fun technique.

Papertrey Ink Make it Monday #268 - Double Layer Tags

For this challenge I'm combining 2 of my favorite things: tags and silhouettes.

I've used Papertrey Tag Dies #1, 5, 9 and 10, the In the Meadow and Simply Jane dies and the Woodgrain Impression Plate.

The images were die cut using silhouette cutting paper.

If you love making tags too, check out all of the inspiration in this challenge!

February PTI Blog Hop

This month's Blog Hop photo is one of my favorites. Love the colors. 

I used Pretty Peonies, Tag Sale #10 and Gracious Greetings for my card.

The peonies were embossed with ZING Blush embossing powder.

Enjoy the hop!

Day 1 of Papertrey Ink's 9th Anniversary

Day 1 of the celebration brought us the design team favorite cards and color combinations.

I decided to us Laurie's combination for my project.

I used Bitty Bouquets, Vintage Linens and Tag Sale #9. I look forward to the PTI anniversaries every year. So much inspiration!

This is the fun inspiration pic for the Papertrey Ink Blog Hop. 

And here is my take on it:

I used Embellished Ellegance, Mini Blooms, and a Graceful Greetings die. The berries were added using Stickles.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas:)

Papretrey Ink Make it Monday #225

This week's MIM is about boxes created with die cuts.

I decided to use my Friendship Jar dies and created a shaker box.  I didn't have any basket filler so used a miniature kraft bag instead. Inside is a handful of skittles.  

This was a very fun project:) 

Papertrey Ink Make it Monday

This week's MIM showcases mini notebooks. I knew right away I would be creating something this week!

I used Library Ledger and Frutti Tutti patterned papers, and the stamped phrase is from Desktop Design.

What a fun project.
