PTI Stamp-a-Faire 2012: Ribbon Techniques

My final post for PTI's Stamp-a-Faire is for the Ribbon Techniques challenge.  I was short of time, so I decided to add some of Melissa Phillip's ribbon leaves to my flowers from the handmade embellishments challenge.

PTI Stamp-a-Faire 2012: Handmade Embellishments

PTI's Stamp-a-Faire 2012 had a challenge to make your own embellishments.  I was inspired by Dawn McVey's video to make my own flowers.  This project made me realize that I really need some of PTI's Beautiful Blooms dies.

Make It Monday #59: Computer Generated Sentiments on Die Cuts

PTI's Make It Monday challenge this week is to generate sentiments with your computer.  I thought it would be fun to make shipping labels to jazz up packages a bit.  Would love to make Christmas themed labels for shipping holiday packages.

Make It Monday #58: Graduated Backgrounds - Take 2

Here's my second take on PTI's Make It Monday challenge with graduated backgrounds.  I just got Beautiful Butterflies (love it!) and took my cue on how to layout the butterflies from a card by Jessica Witty.   That card is the one that pushed me over the edge to buy the set.
