PTI MIM #331: Creating Mixed Background Texture

Here we are in August already and time for another Papertrey Ink Make It Monday. This week Stephanie shared how to mix textures using stamps and die cuts. Believe it or not, I still need more graduation cards (+ one more to make) and a wedding card so I created two using this technique. Thanks, Stephanie, as I'm happy with the results but definitely need more Cover Plates to mix things up a bit. Here are my two creations.

SAF 2017: 2nd Anniversary Tradition: Cotton by Stephanie Gold

It's Stephanie's turn to challenge us for the 2nd Anniversary Tradition of cotton. Looks like I bought more cotton balls just in time to tackle this one. Believe it or not, I forgot all about the glitter…but I did add pearls just for a little bling. Here's Stephanie's creation with the big cone of cotton candy. 

Mine is just a little teeny tiny one, but I thought it was the perfect size for my design. For the cotton candy cone, I used the circle die from Limitless Layers 1.75", cut in half and rolled tightly. For the background, I stamped my own plaid paper. The colors of Lovely Lady and Mint Julep also make me think of ice cream. Woo Hoo!

PTI September 2013 Blog Hop ~ 2nd Card

Here's my second card for PTI's Blog Hop where the challenge was to create a wreath on a festive card front. Before running my Vintage Cream cardstock through my Big Shot, I inked the woodgrain impression plate using PTI's kraft ink and cut the piece in fourths. These were attached using foam tape to add dimension, and so was my wreath. This was created using one of the Limitless Layers 1-3/4" Circle dies, and the circle die from Hello Sunshine Collection for the wreath's center.

Supplies: (all PTI unless noted)

Cardstock: Vintage Cream & SU Really Rust

Ink: Kraft

Dies: Limitless Layers 1-3/4" Circles, Hello Sunshine & Woodgrain Impression Plate

Other: Gold cord for bow, glitter & foam tape

PTI Make It Monday #119: Flagged Borders

You guessed it ~ it's Sunday night and here I am with another PTI Make It Monday which challenges us to create a project utilizing our take on the challenge.

Of course, I had to use the school colors, which are navy and gold.
