PTI Blog Hop September 2018

Hello there.  I am finally playing along with the PTI Blog Hop, after missing the last few months.  We have this gorgeous photo to inspire us.

My Simply Gourd-eous stamps arrived just in time for me to quickly whip up this card.  I am also entering this card at Just Us Girls #459.

Off to check out the hop.

PTI Blog Hop May 2018

I am playing along at the May PTI Blog Hop today, where we have this picnic scene to inspire us.  I took my inspiration from the camper and the black gingham, and pulled out Petite Places Happy Camper, a couple of trees from the Scene it dies, and created a black gingham frame for my scene.

I am also linking this up at Simon Says Wednesday challenge to use more than one stamp.

Short and sweet for me today.  I'm off to enjoy the hop.

PTI April 2018 Blog Hop

I'm a little late to the party, with my card for this month's PTI Blog Hop.  I actually made my card days ago, but forgot to write up and schedule my post.

I was inspired by the stack of cups and the colors.  I decided to stack bowls instead of cups, and used darker and brighter versions of the colors in the photos, as I am not much for pastels.

Well, I'm off to enjoy the hop.

PTI November 2017 Blog Hop

I'm playing along at the PTI November Blog Hop, where my card is inspired by this photo.

Lots to look at on this beautiful Thanksgiving table, but you know what immediately caught my eye....the wine, of course.

I am also linking up at Retro Rubber #76: Anything Goes (my stamps are from 2014), Simon Says Wednesday Challenge:  Food or Drink, and Addicted to Stamps and More #269: Clean and Simple.

PTI July 2017 Blog Hop

Lots going on today....this is my second post.  If you are looking for the CASology 5 Year Anniversary blog hop, please click here.

I am playing along with the PTI July Blog hop, where we have this photo to inspire us.

I was inspired by the color scheme of the photo, as well as the leaves at the top and bottom of the card in the upper left corner.  I wanted to use some new stamps, so used Herb Garden and Pen and Ink.

Papertrey June 2017 Blog Hop

I am popping in with a quick card for this month's PTI Blog Hop.  Here is the inspiration photo.

I was inspired by the jars and flowers, so pulled out Friendship Jar stamps and dies.  I think this may be the first time I have used the flower die.  My sentiment will need to go inside, as I didn't have room for it on the card front.

Off to enjoy the hop.

PTI Blog Hop April, 2017

I'm playing along today with the PTI April 2017 Blog Hop where we have this photo for inspiration.

I took my inspiration primarily from the colors and the grey stem of leaves in the upper right part of the picture.  The shape of those leaves reminded me of Turning a New Leaf.  

Lots to see on the hop, so I won't keep you.  Happy hopping.

PTI Blog Hop March, 2017

I'm playing along today with the March, 2017 PTI Blog Hop.  Here is the part of the inspiration photo that I used to inspire my card:

I was inspired by the dark background, and how much of the piece is covered with colorful flowers. It definitely is a card outside my comfort zone.

I am also linking this card up at AAA Cards #86: Die Cuts, Simon Says Stamp Monday: Layer it Up, and Simon Says Wednesday: Use more than one die or punch.

PTI February 2017 Blog Hop

I am playing along with the PTI February 2017 Blog Hop today.  I took a short cut and used one of the coloring pages from Color Pop Autumn.

I was inspired by the dark background as well as the rich fall colors and gold accents.

Keeping it short today.  Enjoy the hop.

PTI January 2017 Blog Hop...Love

I am happy to be playing along with the PTI January Blog Hop today.  I was inspired by the cookie in the middle, as it looked just like one of my favorite Fillable Frames die.

I used Garden Grace flowers and leaves and a die cut word love to decorate a black fillable frame die cut.  I added a few dots with a white gel pen.  It looked a little plain on top of a plain black card base, so I added more Garden Grace flowers.

I am also entering this card at Addicted to Stamps and More #226: Anything Goes and Paper Players #328:  Clean and Simple Flowers.

I'm keeping it short today as there is so much to see on the hop.

Papertrey Blog Hop September 2016

I am playing along with the September PTI blog hop, where we have this photo as our inspiration.

I was inspired by the pine cones, greenery, twine, and over all clean design of the photo.

It feels so good to be stamping pine cones and thinking about cooler weather to come.
