Hi everyone! Today is the start of a super busy week here on the bloggy blog! I have a post today, Wednesday will be my latest iCopic Blog creation and then Thursday is another Blog Hop for Taylored Expressions! Good times! There is still time to join in on the Taylored Expressions "Going Green" blog hop! Click on the link and check it out!
Today I'm sharing cards I made a week or so ago for the Papertrey Ink facebook contest. I'm so excited that they started doing contests where customers can send in our cards and share with everyone else. There is some hecka talent out there and I've really enjoyed looking at the items posted. The contest series is called Make it Monday and they put a new technique on facebook every Monday...you then have all week to enter for a chance to win some PTI swag.
This first Make it Monday had the technique of taking lots of related word stamps and stamping them in a pattern, combining fonts and styles. It was really fun. I ended up sending in three entries. I didn't get a chance to blog them back then so I'm doing it now. Hope you like them and hope you will try this new way of using your stamps! All supplies, in all three cards are from Papertrey Ink.
Each of those phrases is a different stamp! All combined into a great image! I used a sweet tag and these gorgeous colors...oh my...
This one was my favorite of the three. I really love all those phrases and I loved combining them all with the cute house stamp. I stamped everything first and then used my oval nesties to cut out the center panel. Those butterflies and ribbon in chartreuse...love that. This is going to be a housewarming card for my bestie who just moved into her dream house. Can't wait to give it to her tomorrow!
See you soon!
oh, wow! How fun these are and how pretty, too! I LOVE that technique.....such a great way to get a lot of use from your stamps. I love how different and unique each and every one of these are, Wanda!

Girlfriend, outstanding! I love them all. My favorite is the turquoise and red just because I love the bold color combo. Great tip on the sentiments and using all your stamps and/or repeating. So are you making of buying your felt flowers? All very cool.
