I DO like Mondays!

I know, not everybody’s favourite day of the week BUT if you’re a fan of Papertrey Ink as I am then we all now have a new reason to look forward to Monday.  There is a new challenge called Make It Mondays and each week one of the PTI DT will post a video showing that week’s technique.  This week there is a fab challenge using different sentiments from different sets in a particular theme.

Now, I don’t know if this was REALLY the point but I took it upon myself to get ALL my Christmas sets out and use at least one sentiment from each one.  Here’s what happened…

I satmped most of the sentiments in Tea Dye distress ink and the darker “Merry Christmas” in Vintage sepia.  I don’t know if you can make it out but I also stamped the large poinsettia from Year of Flowers: Poinsettia to give a subtle background detail.  Nothing like my usual style but I had fun – which IS the point isn’t it.

Thanks for dropping by.

Let’s play TAG!

We have a new challenge on the Passion for Papertrey Blog today – we want you to make a tag. Easy peasy and so quick to do you could make more than one ;0)

Here’s mine, I used the freebie anniversary tags from yesterday – this time I used the one designed by Heather Nichols.

Pop by our blog and join in the fun – you’re it!

Papertrey Ink anniversary celebrations continue!!

Today Nichole has offered a free download on her blog – some cute little circle tag images, one from each of the fabulous stamp designers.  There is an awesome prize on offer too – the chance to design a new stamp set!! 
So here is a wee card (and I mean wee – it’s 3″ square!!) using one of the tags – this is one is by Nichole.
