Mini Booklet Challenge

I tried another Papertrey challenge for a mini photo book.  I finished my base; left to complete is the inside pages although you can see a "peek a boo" of the second page.  Thank you for viewing.

Used all Winter Wisteria Pattern Pack prints for the mini book and thought it only appropriate to have the cover using "Shutterbug Special" stamp set.

Again this card is from Papertrey's Stamp A Faire today.  The challenge was "Limited Supply".  However, I did not follow the instructions (until I was finished with this card).  I was only to use specific colors mentioned in the challenge.  The challenge can be viewed at http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/
Thank you for viewing.

Supplies:
Stamp Set:  Natural Beauties and Turning a New Leaf
Ink:  Rose Romance, Ripe Avocado and Black
Cardstock:  Harvest Gold, White and Simply Chartreuse, Summer Sunrise
Accessories:  Turning a New Leaf Dies, Yellow/Orange Buttons, White Twine and Dimensionals

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.
