Glitter Buttons

It's been a while since I've made a card as I've been doing a lot of scrapping. But this weeks Papertrey challenge reminded me that I had a birthday card to make. Always have to have a little bling on the birthday cards. So the challenge was to glitter up your buttons. For some reason I have never done this before so I got out my stickles and had some fun. I used my Papertrey Everyday Button Bits stamp and some of their wonderful buttons (new leaf ).

Faith & Hope

I went on a scrap book retreat last week end and got lots of scrap pages done but I hit a dry spell and so worked on card making for a while. I made two of these cards with the PapertreyInk's set called Faith & Hope. I made them orange because that is the color for Leukemia and Kidney cancer. I know two ladies that each have cancer to send this card. I hope it inspires them.

PTI Anniversary

Papertrey Ink is having their 5th anniversary and celebrating with fun stuff all week. I made this card with a free download. The bee went perfect with some new paper from My Minds Eye and I am just crazy about those straight pins. I can't seem to stop buying them. This will make a cute non-traditional valentine to send.

MIM Late

This card is from last weeks PTI Make it Monday Challenge. I'm a little behind with card making as I'm scrapping a lot these days. Now off to watch this weeks challenge video.

12 Days - Day 1

I took the online scrapping class from Big Picture Classes called the 12 days of Christmas and this is my first page. We were given photo prompts and now starting today ideas for putting together pages with our pictures. I am excited to say I put this one together today and now I'm waiting for Day 2! I normally don't scrap Christmas so this is really fun for me. Especially because I had to buy a bunch of Xmas stuff for my stash. This was also the photo from our holiday card so it did double duty. Hope you had a happy holiday.

Coloring Embossing

This weeks Papertrey MIM challenge was really fun, something I have never done before and never would have thought of. You were to use your copic markers to color and embossed image. I just got this new Hero Arts zig zag set and thought it was perfect. I also used the snowman from the Holiday Friendship Jar Filler set from PTI. I used three different blues but one color is hard to see.

Tag Your It

I usually don't make tags but Tim Holtz 12 tags has inspired me to make one. I also needed a tag for this gift bag. It's kinda sparkles and grunge at the same time. I stamped an angle at the top but it's hard to see in the photo. I used all of his tags for inspiration. Can't wait to see the next one tomorrow.
