Thank you for viewing.

Mini Book Challenge



I only had time to complete two pages for my minibook.  I am going to insert small photographs in the pockets of my grandaughter and make more pages.  You can see the original inspiration at:    http://lilybeanpaperie.typepad.com/lilybeans_paperie/2012/07/stamp-a-faire-memory-preservation.html

This was for the stamp a faire at papertrey today.  It was the ribbon challenge.  Frustrated I could not master the ribbon technique, but did use Ashley Newell's layout.  However, I used a different flower die, colors and designer paper.

Supplies
Cardstock:  Ivory, Pretty Pastels Designer Paper, Summer Sunrise Pattern Pack
Stamps:  Think Big Favorites #18
Dies:  Beautiful Blooms II Dies and Rosie Posie Dies
Ink:  Raspberry Fizz and Kraft
Accessories:  1" circle punch, spring moss ribbon and dimensionals

PTI Stamp A Faire

Good-morning
This morning is Papertrey's Stamp A Faire all day.  The first make and take was created by Nicole Heady.  My version is the same, except that I added some dimension by popping up an additional flower and leaves on the sentiment strip.  Nicole's can be seen at http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/

My version is below:

PTI Challenge 6-27-12
Inspired by Dawn McVey
I used same colors and changed the direction of the second layer from the bottom and changed the greeting - it screamed Christmas to me.
This card is one designed by Ashley Newell, however I used different colors.  The colors I used were purples and harvest gold.

Sympathy Card

This card was cased from the card made by Debbie Olson's which can be seen at http://forum.papertreyink.com/forum/gallery2.php?g2_itemId=168525

My card doesn't have the same construction type and I added glitter.
