Papertrey Ink June Blog Hop

** If you are looking for my StopandScrap.com post, please check below**

In this post, I am going to share a card that I made for the Papertrey Ink June Blog Hop. This month, the inspiration photo is beautiful, although I must admit that this is a color combination that I never would have thought to put together! Here is the inspiration photo:



Here is my card inspired by the photo. I used the Mehndi Medallion Mini stamp set, a sentiment from Beautiful Butterflies and the patterned paper I used is from the Green Boutique paper pad. The polkadots were originally white, but I colored them yellow to match the color scheme.



Thanks for stopping by! Off to hop and check out all of the wonderful creations! :)

Ink: New Leaf, Memento Tuxedo Black

A few weeks back, I did a 2011 Favorites Post here in my blog. For the blog hop, I choose to revisit a card that I had made for the PTI July 2011 Blog Hop. You can see my post here.

Here is the card I made then:



And here is a new card, inspired by the original. I used the Mehndi Medallion $5 set, Tiny Tags #1 and the Tiny Tags die, and the sentiment is from Tremendous Treats: Valentine. I just LOVE coloring these medallions.

Papertrey Ink August Blog Hop!

It's time for the Papertrey Ink August Blog Hop! This month, we were challenged to use this photo as inspiration for our project:



I had a terrible time getting good photos of my card. I used Versamark in on the background images, and it is just impossible to capture. It looks much more obvious in person. I used the Mehndi Medallion Stamp Set with Versamark ink on Fine Linen cardstock to mimic the pattern on the side of the suitcase. Then I diecut and stamped the Flower Fusion #3 flowers to make a bouquet and added leaves using PTI Leaf Ribbon. The sentiment is stamped on the Double Ended Banner diecut.



In this flash photo, you can sort of see the background better:



And the flower bouquet:

Papertrey Ink July Blog Hop

This summer is just flying by! The kiddos head back to school in less than an month, and it's time again for the Papertrey Ink Blog Hop.

For the month of July, we were challenged to use this photo as a source of inspiration for our project:



I chose to use the colors from the photo as a jumping off point. Also, the PTI Mehndi Medallion Stamp Set reminded me of the quilt in the picture. I used copic markers to color in the Medallion and it was so much fun... definately doing that again! An Aqua Mist scalloped border to match the wall color, and a pop of orange like the curtains, and I was done! :)

Stamps: Mehndi Medallion, Tiny Tags
