Make it Monday #110 Collage Elements

 Here's a card for the latest PTI challenge.   I used Mendhi Medallions, Background Basics: Sheet Music and Year of the Flowers: Sweet Peas.   All paper from PTI as well,    Fortunately, my latest order arrived today with the die for the Sweet Pea stamp.   I'm new to Copics coloring, so that was fun to try too.   Another photo taken at night, so the colors aren't quite true.  

Make it Monday #109

Happy Easter,

Here's a card I tried using the watercolor and embossing challenge by Betsy Veldman for PTI.   The paper is from PTI as is the stamp and I used distress inks as I have no reinkers.  I used a clear embossing powder that has some sparkes in them, a bit hard to see with the photo, but nice effect IRL.   I would have liked to have tried again as I had a little smudge on the sentiment and the photo is terrible, but it's a beautiful sunny day and I need to go prune my rosebushes!    

PTI: Make it Monday #98 Chalkboard Technique

I've enjoyed the "chalkboard" look and have tried a few cards now.   Betsy Veldman's tutorial was great!

Your Monday Wash

Since someone special is hosting this week, I'd thought I'd post for the first time in a long time! This is card made using watercolor paper and distress inks and then adding PTI's stamp set  "Through the Trees" embossed in black. 

PTI - Heart Challenge

This card uses PTI and Crate paper and the PTI Heart Prints stamp.

Moxie Fab World - Map to your Heart challenge

My friend and I were going on a trip that included London for a few days, so her Birthday Card had a map of London and suitcases for a theme. The map was a free image downloaded from the internet and the suitcase stamp is from Bella and the sentiment was a rub on.

Moxie Fab World

Thought I'd try a tone-on-tone card with this sketch. Used papers from My Mind's Eye (Stella Rose Gertie) and a Bazill base. I also used a bit of PTI Chamomile ink along the edge of the paper. I'll give this to my sister for her Birthday.
