PTI Celebrating the Past, Present and Future: 2010

Moving through the past 10 years at Papertrey Ink, we're looking back at 2010. A few of the sets showcased are: A Wreath for All Seasons, Year of Flowers Sweet Peas, Beautiful Blooms II, Take Three Summer and Love Lives Here. It's fun to see cards created seven years ago and also now using current trends. Because A Wreath for All Seasons has been on my wish list forever, I was inspired by this card by Maile.

I turned to my Make It Market Mini Kit: Lovely Laurels for my wreath and love the results. Thanks, Maile, for the inspiration!

Thanks for stopping by, and I really do appreciate your comments.

PTI Celebrating Past, Present and Future: 2009

Day 3 of PTI's 10th Anniversary Celebration includes cards from the past and present using sets introduced in 2009 by Papertrey Ink. Once again I don't own any of those either, which included Damask Designs, Fruitful, Giga Guidelines, On My Couch and Simple Valentine. This almost leads you to believe that my stamping supplies are very limited, but my husband says otherwise.

No way could I come close to this beautiful card by Laurie Schmidlin, but I pulled out my Lovely Layers set to give the technique a try.

Because I'm supposed to be packing for our trip tomorrow, I had to hurry and didn't have time to start over. Sorry, no time for re-do's. Remind me that I do not like Smokey Shadow ink (should have used black). I need a lighter gray. 

Thanks for stopping by, and I really do appreciate your comments.

PTI Celebrating the Past, Present and Future: 2007

First challenge of 10 days celebrating Papertrey Ink's 10th Anniversary in business is to use a stamp set featured here that was introduced in 2007. The sets showcased include Beautiful Blooms, Green Thumb, Out to Sea, Spiral Bouquet and Text Boxed. Because I don't own any of these, I was inspired by Maile's Out To Sea card.

Here's what I came up with using one of their newer stamp sets, Swan'sational.
