PTI December 2017 Blog Hop
12/26/17
A beautiful heart floral is our inspiration for the December
2017 Blog Hop! I tried to mimic the floral creating a heart
shaped wreath with tracing from the You Have My Heart
die. I embellished the tracing with foliage from Ivy & Bloom
and Christmas Faith. I placed the velum heart on top of
the foliage and finished up with blooms from Color Pop
Florals. The "love" die was cut from a rose gold mirrored
cardstock.
Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the Blog Hop! :)
Supplies: PTI Color Pop Florals, Ivy & Bloom, Christmas Faith, You Have My Heart Die,
"love" word die, PTI Dye Ink ( Green Parakeet, New Leaf, Simply Chartreuse, Berry
Sorbet, Sweet Blush, Pale Peony, Lovely Lady, Hibiscus Burst, Autumn Rose).

PTI MIM #307: Faux Stained Glass
12/18/17
Laurie presents a clever idea to create faux stained glass
for this weeks MIM. She uses velum behind a cover plate
die and then colors some of the die-cut spaces with Copic markers to achieve the stained glass look.
I love the look of this technique...tho I lack owning very many cover plates. I used one of Betsy's Mix & Mat dies (Pretty Brackets) to try out Laurie's method. Thought I'd make a Thank You card to use after Christmas. I can't believe I took this challenge...I still have so much to do before Christmas. But I just couldn't resist. :)
Supplies: PTI Mix & Mat: Pretty Brackets, Gran's Garden, ways to say: thank you, PTI Dye ink (Pure Poppy, Berry Sorbet, Pale Peony, Scarlet Jewel, Green Parakeet, New Leaf, Ripe Avocado), Copic Sketch.

PTI Create Along With Us: December 2017
12/11/17
Valentine's Day is out in full swing with the December 2017
PTI release and so much inspiration from the DT! I selected
one by Laurie Schmidlin to CAS. I think it was the colorful
felt hearts with coordinating buttons that caught my attention.
I do not have the cover plate hearts so I used an embossing
folder instead. Here's my version of Laurie's sweet card:
Supplies: PTI XOXO, Jumping for Joy, PTI Dye Ink (Lovely Lady, Pure Poppy, Hawaiian
Shores), PTI cardstock (Aqua Mist), Cuttlebug EF (hearts), PTI Vintage Buttons Collections.

PTI MIM #306: Easy Fan Brush Trees
12/4/17
Betsy has a wonderful technique for us today using a
fan brush to create trees! She makes it seem so easy but
I struggled a bit. For one thing, my two colors of green
re-inkers were too close. So the details of the trees did
not show up and became muted together. I'll have to try
this method again after I order a Pinefeather re-inker.
Any ways, I pretty much "CAS-ed" Betsy's card since I
have a bunch of stuff to finish up before Christmas and
before our daughter #2 has her baby girl (due 12/22).
Supplies: PTI Wonderland kit, ways to say: Merry Christmas,
Tag Sale: Quilted Die, MFT Stitched Rectangle STAX 2, MFT BG Snowfall Background, PTI Dye ink (Spring Rain, Aqua Mist, Winter Wisteria, Enchanted Evening), PTI re-Inker (Green Parakeet), Marvy Uchida re-inker (light green).
