PTI July blog hop

Today is the PTI blog hop and I am playing along.  

I love the inspiration photo, I so wish my house looked like this! 

I love these colors, and this is the card I came up with.  

I love the Rosie Posie stamp set, I stamped a few extra images when a friend was here stamping for SAF so I would have them. But sadly I already need more.  

Just one more thing to add to my wish list!

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

SAF 2016: COLOR BLOCKING WITH LEXI DALY

Ok, so this doesn't even begin to compare to Lexi's amazing tutorial she did for color blocking, so hop on over and take a look.  It's amazing!  I however could not grasp the concept, or come up with a stamp set I liked to use for her technique.  So I bent the rules just a bit and went old school and used patterned paper, still using the color blocking concept. And I love how Warhol often used fruit in his paintings, and photography.

I chose Daniel's choice as my inspiration.  

I also wanted to water color for the challenge.  

I love the bold blue in this painting.  

And this is what I came up with.  

SAF 2015: POINTILLISM PLAY WITH HEATHER NICHOLS

SAF 2015: POINTILLISM PLAY WITH HEATHER NICHOLS

This was my very last project I took on last night, it was a bit time consuming but a fun study in pointillism.  I think I may have gotten more from this years SAF then I did in my college art history class.  I think this technique is much like many others, you really need to keep using it for it to become something you can master.  Heather offers two examples that are just fabulous!  Check out this years SAF to see them and much more!

I didn't change much for this card, although I ended up using a bit more pink then I thought.  

Thanks Melissa for the fun technique and inspiration.

PTI Stamp-A-Faire 2016

Hello everyone! I'm excited to be kicking this morning off with all my friends at Papertrey Ink for Stamp-A-Faire 2016! Woohoo!  

I spent the last few days getting my room ready for the big day! 

The table you see in the bottom of the photo I added just for today.  It holds all of my PTI stamps, dies and paper.  

This year is the first year someone has joined me for the day.  

Say hello to my new stamping friend, Jill.  

And now on to my first project of the day.

MFT camp create!

Today I am sharing day 3 of camp create.  

Today's challenge is to use inlaid shapes. 

So fun! 

This is the first time I tried this technique. 

I love the technique, but I'm not entirely happy with how my card turned out.  

I adhered the inlaid just a little off but it really shows, so I'm sure I won't be using this card, but I wanted to share my first attempt at the technique.  I'll do better next time and we were headed to the amusement park so I didn't have time to remake the card today. Isn't summer camp fun! 

Thanks for stopping by and see you tomorrow at camp!
