Papertrey Ink June Blog Hop

This month, PTI changed up the challenge a bit, and selected this photo to serve as inspiration for our projects:



I chose to pull the color scheme from the photo and use it for my card. I also used a fun technique by Nichole Heady using copic markers. You can see Nichole's cards here.

I used the Butterfly Dreams stamp set, along with PTI's new set, Happy Trails.



Supplies (all PTI unless noted):
Stamps: Butterfly Dreams, Happy Trails
Paper: Stampers Select White
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
Other: Copic Markers

Make It Monday #20 - Reverse Masking

This week's Make It Monday Challenge at PTI is on Reverse Masking.

I used my Alphablocks Die to create the illusion of a window on my card, and outside, you can see a few Little Bitty Birds.



Supplies (All PTI unless noted):
Stamps: Little Bitty Bird, Butterfly Dreams
Ink: Memento Rich Cocoa, Aqua Mist
Dies: Alphablocks
Other: Post It Notes, Copic Markers

Home Decor with Papertrey Ink

I have been wanting to make one of the 7 Gypsies printers trays for the longest time, and I figured that since my mom's newest grandson has finally arrived, it was time. My mom's birthday is Wednesday, but we celebrated yesterday and I gave her her gifts, so it's safe to share on my blog now. I am very pleased with how it turned out, and she loved it. I used My Mind's Eye Gertie papers, and a bunch of different Papertray Ink Stamps and other products. I will share closeups of each opening, with the supply list for each listed under each picture.
