PTI May 2011 Blog Hop



It's that time again for the Papertrey Ink Blog Hop! This month's theme was flowers. I only own one set of PTI flowers, which is the special CHA set that I received last year and I really love it. I hope that you enjoy the card I've come up with. I plan on getting more flower sets from PTI...many, many more...soon!!! Can't wait to hop around to all the blogs today!

Here's the link for the hop details and all the other wonderful creations: http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2011/05/may-2011-blog-hop.html


SSC Monthly Blog Hop – May 25


Hi there! I've got a special card for the SSC Monthly Blog Hop for this month. The theme was to use masking on your project. I have to say, this is NOT a strong suit of mine, but I did a simple mask and I have to say, I love it!! I will definitely be attempting more masking on my cards in the very near future.

I made this as a little thank you card for my son's Kindergarten teacher. Thought the paper I had in my scraps was a perfect fit for a teacher. You can see the detail in the circle that I masked out the center of the circle and stamped smaller circles inside that I colored with a Copic marker. Just the right touch. And the wee pencil...too cute! The school year ends next week and I'm having a hard time coming to grips with the fact that he's going to be a 1st grader!!! **sniff**
