It is a little hard to see in this photo, but I created a background paper using a faint stamping of Background Basics Newsprint using Amuse Pebble ink, and then a brighter pattern over that using Butterfly Kisses. I got this idea this morning from this card by my friend Gayatri.
On to another subject....THE GIVEAWAY.....
I am fortunate to have received an extra 'thank you' set from PTI, and I would like to give it to one of my blogging friends who has not yet received this set yet. I will ship anywhere, so if you live overseas, don't be shy to let me know that you would like this set. In your comment, please let me know if you are in need of this stamp set, and I will pick a lucky winner and announce it in the next few days.
Supplies Used (PTI):
Stamps: Butterfly Kisses, Background Basics Text Style, Background Basics Newsprint
Paper: White, Pure Poppy, Aqua Mist, Hawaiian Shores
Other: Butterfly, Mat Stack #1, Mat Stack #1 Layerz dies
Thanks for Visiting

Beautiful shaker!! You know I don't need the set, but couldn't resist saying hello and letting you know I love your card as always !!!
ReplyDeleteJoyce, your shaker card is adorable. Haven't attempted that technique yet. Love your color choices, your homemade background paper and your sentiment flag. Great job on the MIM challenge!
ReplyDeleteAwesome card. Great color combination. I love that background paper you made with the butterfly kisses. And your sentiment banner. Didn't realize it was propped up until I took a second look. It blends in so nicely.
ReplyDeleteYou did a fabulous job with the shaker. I don't think I am attempting this MIM.
Cute idea wit the shaker card! I love butterflies. As well, it is so generous of you to do this giveaway. i'd love to join in. Thanks.

How cute! I love that you stamped your background! I need to remind myself to try that more often. Totally worth the inky fingers:)
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful shaker card! I love the background paper you made and how you carried it onto your banner! I have the stamp set, but so sweet of you to offer it up, intn'l too!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, as always! I love your butterfly take on the shaker card!! And thanks for the chance to win ... I didn't get a TY set and would love to get one.
ReplyDeleteWould never have known you had a couple of shakers that did not work, this card is just too adorable and the butterflies are so sweet. Great job!
ReplyDeleteJoyce, I don't need the set my dear, but I had to comment on this amazing card and shaker! I love your colour choices, the faint newsprint in the background and the text print on the Mat Stack shaker. Now I will continue on with your awesome background stamping. Lovely, lovely.
ReplyDeleteLove the butterfly die for the shaker opening! Great job! I already have an extra "Thank you" set also!
ReplyDeleteLove the butterfly shaker! And you filled it with beads - must be so much fun to shake ;) I already have the thank you stamps, but I hope some lucky person will be able to snatch it right up!
ReplyDeleteGreat shaker card, love that you put the butterfly in the Matt stack . Love the background you stamped too! I have plenty of the thank you stamp, very nice of you to give it away. My daughters will be getting my extras!
ReplyDeleteI love your take on this week's MIM, Joyce! Your card is fabulous! I also have a thank you set already.
ReplyDeleteOh Joyce, this is wonderful! I love the aqua colours, and the beautiful butterfly shape, just stunning!
ReplyDeleteAnd I am only just starting on my PTI collecting lol! So Yes I would love to be included in your fab draw!
Joyce--what a fun shaker card! I recently learned how to make these, they are so much fun! I really like the beads with the butterfly, and the colors are so pretty! Great job!

I love the shaker card - I have only ever made one, and it wasn't a success!! Most of the shakey bits ended up lodged between the acetate and bottom cardstock, because i hadn't sealed it close enough! Didn't even think about it at the time, and I haven't attempted one since! But I love the look of this, so could be tempted...!
ReplyDeleteI have never even seen this PTI set, and don't own any PTI so yes I'd love to be be included in the draw :) very kind of you to give it away! M x
Good job you perservered. Love that you matched the shaker beads with the inks. Please count me in for the giveaway- all PTI goodies are treasured!
ReplyDeleteJoyce, I love that your shaker card is a butterfly! And the colors that you chose are fabulous, too :) Thanks for the offer of the set, but I already received one, too!
ReplyDeleteAwesome shaker card and I really love the background you created with the Butterfly Kisses stamps!
ReplyDeleteHi Joyce,
ReplyDeleteI so love your blog and your beautiful cards. I would love to receive this stamp set!!!! OMG thank you for the opportunity ... I have been covetting this set ever since it first came out, and then I realised that it was a gift with purchase to say thank you from the PTI team. Sadly here in Australia it's very costly to purchase PTI stamps, the shipping costs are crazy as PTI only ships with insurance cover and it's very pricey. I only order once a year for this reason.
So thank you so much for the opportunity to receive this stamp set, I hope that the odds fall in my favour, as there are so many of your readers that too would very much love this stamp set.
Have a great week
Hugs
Angie :)
By the using of the small pearls give a new and pretty look , i like it and suggest you that you can also use the glitter ribbon in here....

Great shaker card, Joyce! i love the colors you used and that you used the same pattern of the background paper in the sentiment banner.
ReplyDeleteI love your blog, Joyce!! All your cards are simply darling. Thank you for the chance to win the awesome PTI set.
ReplyDeleteI love the card and love the stamps. Card making is a new hobby for me. I don't have the stamp set but would love to be the owner of one!
