June 2015 PTI Blog Hop Challenge

JUNE 2015 PTI BLOG HOP CHALLENGE




Well, hey there!  THANK YOU for hopping to my blog!
I really pared down my take on the challenge for June.  I loved the inspirational photo and really wanted to show off a quick card.  I just know the vellum with gray stripes has the potential to be exquisite....I zeroed in on the stripes in the watering can and the orange flower cascade!  I can't wait to see your entries.

I need to make an embarrassing disclosure; I have tried to post comments on so many blogs for so many months, while I'm hopping and for some reason the never post.  I have tried every configuration the little boxes demand of me and they still never show up.  I really enjoy all of your creative work and so enjoy having a look around!  SO THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR WONDERFUL ART WORK!
If you can offer me a clue as to how to make it work, please enlighten me!

Have a lovely weekend!  I'm off to visit my mom and sister and her family! 




Cheers!
Gwen

PTI MAY BLOG HOP CHALLENGE!







There is just something so bright and cheerful about a rainbow of colors all in one place.  I found this photo of scattered wooden blocks especially inspiring and thought it was a wonderful jumping point for a card!  You can stamp scattered images on a card front.  Use the colors to create stripes or backgrounds.  Die cut multiples of similar shapes in a rainbow of colors and adhere them in a unique pattern.  Splatter several colors of ink or paint onto your project.  Get creative and have fun with all of the options at your fingertips!


I didn't realize how much I love the rainbow effect on my cards until I saw the challenge, created my card!  And then looked at past card archives!

Here is my entry!







Papertrey card stock, sentiment stamp and background die! Colored with Copics.

Another snap of my October PTI Blog Hop Challenge!


This is the color combo I chose!


PTI October Blog Hop Challenge!



The background was stamped with second generation of colors.  The only first generation was the dark Raspberry Fizz that the die cut was places semi strategically over!  The die cuts were adhered together to be 3D, but the fantastic thing is that they still lie flat for mailing purposes!  The Raspberry Fizz card stock at the top had the sentiment embossed before adhering to project!
Makes me think of the God's eyes we used to make in Sunday School with yarn!
Wish all of you a lovely week ahead!

Happy Candy Corn wishes!

Volunteer!

Hi,
While searching the yard for turkey feathers I came across a very healthy volunteer plant in the compost bin. Curiosity got the better of me so I dug it up with a trowel. I was thinking it was either a mango or an avacado. It was a mango!!!!  In NH!  I didn't do a very good job getting it out of the nasty heap, but with some tlc I hope it will thrive and survive!  I'll keep you posted!
