PTI 10th Anniversary Challenge: Favorite Florals

It's Release Day #3 at Papertrey Ink and so many beautiful new products and gorgeous cards showcasing the release. Nichole challenged us to create a new project using our all-time favorite floral set. There have been so many delightful floral sets released that it's difficult to choose a favorite. I opted to go with the hibiscus from Some Like It Hot for another thank you card, and I'm using some more of my new Pre-Anniversary Sale paper. Here's my card.

PTI 10th Anniversary Challenge: Multiply

This is Day 2 of Papertrey Ink's March Release in conjunction with their 10th Anniversary. Nichole challenged us to create a project using multiple shapes, stamps or die cuts. Seems like I'm always in need of thank you cards. What a fun way to show appreciation with Zigs, smooshing and stars!

PTI 10th Anniversary Challenge: Photo Finish

In addition to Product Designer and Design Team Contributor for Papertrey Ink, Heather is also the Traveler's Journal Ambassador. She showed us here on Nichole's blog how to create travel journals similar to a small scrapbook or notebook.  The options are endless, and when I have more time I'm going to try this.

For this challenge, we were to incorporate a photo into a project. Because I rarely print photos any more, I found one in my stamp room just waiting to be used. Besides that, I'm in need of thank you cards. This is it.

PTI 10th Anniversary Challenge: Altered Envelope

Lexi, besides being a product designer for Papertrey Ink, she is now also the Planner Ambassador. As guest blogger on Nichole's blog, the challenge was to create a new card with a coordinating altered envelope. I couldn't help but think of a pretty tulip bouquet perfect for a sympathy card. Here's my card and matching envelope just waiting to be mailed Monday.

PTI 10th Anniversary Challenge: Packaging Inspiration

Rebecca started off Papertrey Ink's 10th Anniversary festivities with her beautiful gift wrapping and packaging ideas. Her blog post was very interesting about her family history and fulfilling her dream of being a Packaging Ambassador for PTI. You can see her work monthly on the 6th but to get the challenge details go to Nichole's blog, which is to create a new packaging project. 

Because I didn't have any gifts to wrap, I opted to create a Pocket Card. It turned out better than I expected, and I even used some more new Pre-Anniversary Sale paper. The hoarding is over!

You can see the decorated pocket insert below just waiting for a personalized message.

PTI 10th Anniversary Challenge: Stitching

Lizzie showed us her stitching talents creating the cutest travel Tic Tac Toe set out of felt. She now wears four hats for Papertrey Ink with her added responsibilities as the Stitching Ambassador. Yay, Lizzie! Since I'm not much of a sewer/stitcher, fortunately the challenge is to create a project using the stitching projects as inspiration. Whew, now I can participate! And guess what? I used some of my new PTI Pre-Anniversary Sale patterned papers.
