PTI January Blog Hop








Total Package Challenge


During this month's release there was a lot of chatter about the interior of cards and how they don't always get the attention they need. This month's challenge is to create a card that has the "total package". Create any style card you can dream up, then take it the next step. Embellish the interior and adorn the envelope. You might even want to add a little something to the back of the card! Be sure to take photos of ever aspect so we can all be inspired with what you create! We can't wait to see what you make!




So, today is my first PTI Blog Hop.

For the challenge, I made valentine cards for my granddaughters.


My card base is in PTI Pure Poppy CS. I also used white and sweet blush PTI CS.

The hearts and smaller sentiments are from PTI's sweet valentine set.

The larger sentiment is a Stampability stamp.

The PP is Doodlebug, and the rick rack is unknown.

The heart frame was made with a Sizzix die.

The inks used were true black, pure poppy and sweet blush PTI.


Enough chatter, here's my card.





and the inside:




and the envelope front and back.




I can't wait to see everyone else's cards!
