Busy Crafty Saturday

The temperatures were high here in NJ and I was able to head down to my little craft nook in the cool basement while DH and the kids were at our town pool. Here are some of the cards I made yesterday:

First card was made using the Smoke & Sky color palette at Play Date Cafe this week. I thought the muted colors would work best with the PTI Watercolor Wonder set for the artistic look.

This card was inspired by the sketch challenge #18 at Seize the Birthday. I made this brightly colored card for my niece's second birthday next weekend.

Next card was inspired by the bright rainbow of colors at the Pinspired Challenge #10. Never played here before but have always wanted to. They have great photos for their jumping off point.

More cards to come! Thanks for stopping by.

PTI May Blog Hop Take 2

This gorgeous bouquet inspired me to cluster small flowers together. I don't have many PTI floral sets so I used the tiny flower in Happy Hexagons to create a collage of colors in the die cut heart which I put on the inside of the card.



I embossed the card front to add a bit of texture and put the banner across the heart shape on the front.



Hope you too are enjoying all the beautiful cards inspired by these flowers! Thanks for popping by!

Supplies:
Paper: PTI Winter Wisteria, White
Stamps: PTI Happy Hexagons & Birthday Basics
Ink: Winter Wisteria, Sweet Blush, Spring Moss, Lavender Moon, & Fine Linen
Other: Lifestyle Crafts Embossing Folder, Simon Says Stamp Tilted Banners, Spellbinders Heart Die

PTI May 2013 Blog Hop

Its Papertrey Blog Hop time and they did not disappoint with their inspiration theme this month! There were seven color combinations to inspire us with a floral project. The photos of the various bouquets were so gorgeous that they made me want to get married again just so I can have a different bouquet arrangement! If I have time, I'll have to make a card for every color combination - they are just SO beautiful!



Trouble was that I didn't have a lot of flowers in my stamp stash to choose from. I decided to use one of my Flower Fusion sets and came up with this -



Thanks for stopping by and I'll see you around the Blog Hop!

Paper: Vintage Cream, Pure Poppy Striped patterned paper, Melon Berry Cardstock
