PTI Transformation Tuesday Challenge #22

It's not very often I get around to participating in Papertrey Ink's Transformation Tuesday Challenge, but it's certainly not because I don't have lots of cards I'd like to transform. Dawn McVey is the host for this challenge, and she made a Christmas card using her new stamp set, Blooming Amaryllis. It is gorgeous! I chose this Fall birthday card to remake.

PTI MIM #334: Glitter Inlays

Now I know exactly why I like glittered paper because after finishing this challenge, I had glitter everywhere. Lexi Daly was the hostess this week for Papertrey Ink's Make It Monday. She shared tips on adding bling to our projects by creating glitter inlays. I was determined even though it took me all week to come up with an idea using supplies I have on hand. Without further ado, here's my card, including smooshing (which I haven't done in awhile)!

Create Along With Us Challenge: November 2017

Is it fair to say this was my very favorite release ever even though I wasn't able to place an order? Needless to say, my wish list grew by leaps and bounds. Besides loving all the new products and the DT's projects, I also won the Day 5 Gift Certificate. Woo hoo! That will definitely help me get some of my "much needed" items.

This week instead of Make It Monday Papertrey Ink challenged us to select one of the design team's projects and create our own version based on that inspiration.

I chose this striking card by Michelle at PrettyPeriwinkle.

Since I needed a few more Thanksgiving cards to show how grateful I am for people in my life, this is the card I created. 

My BIL from Idaho was just visiting us for three days, and Monday we pick up another BIL and SIL from Tennessee from the airport. Tuesday we're traveling to Idaho to spend several days over Thanksgiving with some of my DH's family. It should be a great time provided the weather cooperates. Safe travels and Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!
