PTI Stamp A Fair Red Carpet Challenge

I am sad to say the 2015 Papertrey Stamp A Fair is over.  I look forward all year to Stamp-A-Fair.  Below is a photo of all the cards I made during this event. 

Thank you Papertrey Ink!  I learned many new techniques.

PTI 2015 Stamp-A-Fair

This challenge called for using unconventional supplies to create a card from items found in a hardware store (could not spend more than $10.00).

The above receipt shows what I purchased - interesting enough I only used three of the items I purchased (color samples, white thumb tacks and cork pads.

The flowers were stamped and embossed on a part of a paint sample, a white thumb tack serves as the center of the flowers, and the cork pads are under the thumb tacks and add a height or dimension to the flowers.

I loved this challenge.  My necklace turned out somewhat good - although the next time I make it I will take the time to do the beading.  This was neglected in order to get this posted prior to the deadline for Stamp A Fair 2015.

You Are In My Thoughts

Made this card after watching "Creating Crisp Images" Craftsy class taught by Laura Bassen.  It is hard for me to create clean and simple cards - I always want to add lots of embellishments and dimension.  All supplies by Papertrey Ink unless otherwise stated.

Second card is the same card but embellished and not having a black center for the main floral.
