Make It Monday DIY Notebooks:
What a darling idea for a little gift for any occasion. I used  PTI Berry Sorbet, Hibiscus Burst and Sweet Blush. I also used PTI's Take Note stamp set.  For the buttons I used the Button Stack combination and clear heat embossed them to make them shiny. The inside notes all say "Notes" on the bottom. Really enjoyed this project.
 
All the inside say "Notes" on the bottom of each page

Papertrey Ink's Make It Monday's challenge is to make an Envelope Wrap.
I used the wine bottle die and flowers from Happiness in Bloom. Also used are
the sentiments from Simply You.  What a fun project. I loved making it to
match my card.

PTI Make it Monday: Heat Embossing Tips for Die Cuts and Two Step Stamps.

Today's challenge was really different for me but very fun too. I used PTI's Rosie Posie two step stamps along with Boutique Borders Love. I went right along with Erin and backed into the process of stamping first and cutting from a pattern made by the die. Using Berry Sorbet and Pure Poppy for the flowers and Simply Chartruese  and Ripe Avacado for the leaves. It's all mounted on Berry Sorbet pin dot. The Love You is from Boutique Borders Love as well.

PTI March High Gloss Blog Hop

Here is another example of High Gloss using clear embossing powder. Stamps used were the Fabulous Frames, The Truck is from Tremendous Treats  and the tag from Bountiful Banners.
Enchanted Evening is the paper. It's a cute card for a male I think.

PTI  High Gloss March Blog Hop

 

This Months blog hop from PTI challenged us to use high gloss on our projects. For stamps I used the Leave it Be, and Happiness in Bloom stamp and die sets. Also the Hello is from Wonderful Words. I did a little stamping on the white cardstock with the leaves and then die cut the word out on top of it. I treated each flower and leaf with clear embossing powder for the glossy look.
Papers used were Tropical Teal, Spring Rain, Enchanted Evening, and New Leaf for some of the leaves. I love using clear embossing powder as it enhances the colors and give it such a fun shine.

PTI Challenge: Spring Card

Doodlie-Do wins again for the stamp design I chose. I used Copics in Spring
Colors and added my own Zen tangles to fill in the spaces in between
If you don't know what Zen tangles is- it's controlled doodling. It's all over Pinterest and
is very therapeutic they say. It's my first attempt and I found it very time consuming but fun.
I adhered the twine on the back of the button with glue dots and used Liquid Pearls in the
centers of the other flowers.
