<span style="font-size: large;">I absolutely adore the felt cookies that Debbie Olson made for PTI's <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2017/08/saf-2017-guest-debbie-olson.html">7th anniversary challenge: wool</a>!! I didn't have much felt on hand, although I have used PTI's before and it is exceptional - thick, luxurious, and easy to work with. I used felt and PTI Pure Poppy and Green Parakeet cardstock to create this simple Christmas cookie with sprinkles. The Swiss dot paper is vintage PTI bitty dots and the sentiment comes from their Cup of Cheer set. The red ribbon is also from PTI and is so beautiful and cuts perfectly. Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed evening!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Of all the projects presented during PTI's Stamp-A-Faire weekend, <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2017/08/saf-2017-guest-stephanie-gold.html">Stephanie Gold's</a> little cotton candy cone was my favorite!! I decided to copy it, but I think mine looks more like a pink Olympic torch!! I used Hibiscus Burst ink to color the cotton candy, and I had planned to use sticky strip and glitter to create the stripes when I noticed I already had a piece of gold glitter cardstock that would be so much easier to work with. I added a little gold tassel that I had in my ribbon drawer and a subtle sentiment from Wet Paint III. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">When I saw this week's <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2017/08/make-it-monday-295-z-fold-card.html">Make it Monday Challenge: Z-Fold Cards</a>, my first thought was "Nope! No way! Not gonna happen!" Then I remembered my sweet mama has a rather BIG birthday coming up tomorrow and I wanted to make her an extra special card! So, here is my z-fold card! I'm sure I don't have an envelope this size but I love the card so much that it doesn't matter!! I used PTI's Paper Clippings: Happy Birthday stamp set and dies, and the colors I used are PTI Harvest Gold, Blueberry Sky, & Spring Rain; Tim Holtz Faded Jeans; and SU! Daffodil Delight. Mom and I both love yellow, blue, and white, so I had several coordinating pieces of designer paper that worked perfectly with the die cuts. I can't wait to give her her card tomorrow. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I created my card for this month's <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2017/08/create-along-with-us-august-2017.html">PTI Create Along with Us</a> early last week and nearly FORGOT TO POST IT!! Wouldn't that have been a tragedy?!? I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2017/08/august-2017-release-day-1.html">Lizzie Jones's</a> sunflower cards for this month but especially this one with the aqua gingham background. It's so fresh and beautiful and clean. For my card, I used PTI's Painted Petals and SSS's Gingham Background stamps. The sentiment is one of my favorites from PTI's Iconic Images. Thanks for stopping by tonight and have a great week! If you're checking out the eclipse tomorrow, BE SAFE!!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">So, I know it might look like I phoned it in this week for my <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2017/07/make-it-monday-292-color-blocking-three-ways.html">Make it Monday </a>challenge project, but I really love these colors and SU!'s Lemon Zest stamp set together. The colors I used are Green Parakeet, SU!'s Daffodil Delight, and Limeade Ice. I used Nuvo crystal drops to look like drops of juice and I used my new PTI stamp set, Fruit Salad Sentiments embossed in white, which I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!

Anyway, for this month's <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2017/06/june-2017-blog-hop.html">PTI Blog Hop</a>, I used their Friendship Jar and Daydreamer stamp sets along with SU!'s En Francais background stamp. I really like how the jar and water turned out - I used Tim Holtz's Peacock Feathers, Broken China, and Tumbled Glass distress inks. I used Berry Sorbet and Pure Poppy for the flowers - I just love these two colors together, especially on two-step stamping flowers. Thanks for stopping by and have a great week!</span><br />

I follow Pantone on Instagram so I'm familiar with their color cards. I went for the easy ideas this week. The bunny card with Hawaiian Shores cardstock didn't really come together as well as I wanted it to (plus I flattened my sequins when I used the scallop die on my white panel), but I love my sunflower card with SU! Daffodil Delight. I spritzed a bit of DD ink on the white cardstock for a little bit more color. Easy peasy! Thanks for stopping by and have a great evening! </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I can't believe it's been more than a month since I've blogged! I've been making cards here and there but just haven't been putting them HERE. When I saw the challenge to <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2017/06/create-along-with-us-june-2017.html">create a card </a>based on this month's release inspiration, I immediately knew which card I wanted to use for my inspiration!! This amazing card by Nichole Heady uses this month's new release, Quoted: True Friends, and I think this is going to be a set I buy every month along with Month of Psalms! For my card, I used last month's new release, Quoted: Dream Big, formatted similarly to Nichole's card. I used Hawaiian Shores, Orange Zest, & New Leaf inks and cardstock along with SU! Bermuda Bay on Whisper White cardstock. I used the Noted Scalloped A2 Vertical Die to cut the focal point panel, which I attached to my card base with Stampin' Dimensionals. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">So, once again, my card for PTI's <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2017/05/make-it-monday-283-watercolor-wash-backgrounds.html">Make it Monday</a> challenge did not turn out the way I envisioned it, but since I'd already invested so much time in it, here it is! I used Tombow brush markers to create the watercolor wash background, although I had something else in mind. For someone who loves the look of watercolor so much, I sure am bad at it. I really need to practice, but I'm more of an instant gratification girl! I used PTI Flower Favorites with Limeade Ice, Hibiscus Burst, and SU! Melon Mambo inks. Thanks for stopping by and have a great week!!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">So, my intention was to kill two challenges with one card, but that didn't happen, so here is my card for this week's <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2017/04/make-it-monday-282-stenciled-watercolor-backgrounds.html">Make it Monday</a> Challenge. I used a Faber-Castell stencil with PTI Canyon Clay and SU! Daffodil Delight ink on watercolor paper. The flower and sentiment are from Painted Petals, & the card base is SU! Really Rust cardstock. Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great afternoon!</span><br />

I used the bunny die from PTI's Polka Dot Parade #1 to cut a shape from a piece of white cardstock. I then stamped and colored all these adorable little carrots from Inky Antics' Carrot Bunny and placed a small piece of PTI's lemon tart bitty dot basics paper </span><span style="font-size: large;">(from 2008, y'all!)</span><span style="font-size: large;"> behind the bunny opening.

PTI's Life stamp set is one of my favorites, although I wasn't really getting the results I wanted with it today. I have a terrible time coloring stamps multiple colors, so I pulled out my favorite Wplus9 Freehand Florals and stamped the blooms in Angel Pink (Memento) and Winter Wisteria (PTI).

I transformed this pink blobby mistake into a birthday card by adding a few more background colors (Aqua Mist & Simply Chartreuse and Tim Holtz Mustard Seed) and two stamp sets (Stylish Sentiments: Birthday and Polka Dot Parade #12). I'm new to color blending distress inks so my first few attempts weren't very good, but I'm starting to get the hang of it and enjoy it more! Thanks for stopping by today. I hope it's warm where you are!!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I think this will be my last post for today. Three cards in one day may be a personal best!! For the <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2017/03/march-2017-release-day-2.html">multiply challenge</a>, I used one of PTI's <a href="https://www.papertreyink.com/pti-dies/papertrey-ink-chevron-stripes-border-die-collection/">Chevron Stripes border dies </a>(2 per set) on this semi-masculine card I made for a sweet friend who treated me and another friend to lunch recently. I had to add a few flowers so I pulled out Bigger Blooms and stamped a few blue ones. The sentiment is from Iconic Images. Thanks for stopping back by!!</span><br />

I cut out the picture and a matching mask from a post-it note. I used another favorite floral, Mini Blooms, to create a little </span><span style="font-size: large;">frame around the picture. I also used a PTI Color Recipe from this past January and a sentiment from Stylish Sentiments: Birthday. I love the way the card turned out and I can't wait to send it to the birthday girl!!</span><br />

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE floral stamp sets! In fact, I am obsessed with them to the point that last night, I nearly ordered one I ALREADY HAVE! For this challenge, I chose Brushed Blooms, one of many PTI floral sets I own and one of my favorites. My card is inspired by one <a href="http://www.justgivemestamps.typepad.com/">Laurie Schmidlin</a> made just last month. Here are the details:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Stamp sets - Brushed Blooms, Graceful Greetings, Simon Says Stamp Gingham Background</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Colors: Berry Sorbet, Limeade Ice, Tim Holtz Faded Jeans, SU! Daffordil Delight and Melon Mambo, and Versafine Onyx Black</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Thanks so much for stopping by today and have a great evening!</span><br />

I broke out Peonies on Parade that I was thinking of getting rid of, but I found some new inspiration on Pinterest, so I'm going to hold on to it for a bit longer! I was inspired by a card Nichole made when the set was released. I stamped all the flowers and leaves in Versafine Black Onyx ink and then colored them with Crayola markers. I found the best set of 50 markers on Amazon awhile back for a great price so I scooped them up. The sentiment is from New Every Morning. I've been making so many thinking of you and sympathy cards lately. There is so much sadness in the world and I just want my friends to always know that they are not going through their tough times alone. I hope you'll break out a dusty stamp set and create something beautiful for someone you love! Have a great day!!</span><br />

My sweet family is out of town and I have THE ENTIRE DAY to do as I please! I started off with a croissant and coffee from my favorite local bakery, Wild Love Bakehouse, and then straightened and cleaned up my craft space (and watched a few guilty pleasure movies, too!). I love a clean workspace but it never lasts once I actually start working!! Today is Papertrey Ink's monthly <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2017/02/february-2017-blog-hop.html">blog hop</a> and since I've been participating in everything they have going on lately, I knew I had to do this one, too. I was going to try a new technique on black cardstock, but I have just rediscovered Graceful Greetings (and learned there's a second Graceful Greetings stamp set that I am currently on the waiting list for), and was inspired by a card I found on Pinterest by <a href="http://scrapbookgirl.typepad.com/">Betsy Veldman</a> that used darker, richer colors. The colors I used are PTI Autumn Rose & Orange Zest, and SU! Daffodil Delight (my favorite yellow). I love the interest the black leaves add to the card. Thanks for stopping by today and enjoy this beautiful weekend!!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">So, in a previous blog post, I told you that Brushed Blooms is one of my top 5, all-time favorite stamp sets. Painted Petals is another one!! I saved my PTI reward points for a long time and I'm so glad I did!! I didn't really like the reward set for 2015, but I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this one for <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2017/02/celebrating-the-past-present-and-future-2016.html">2016</a>!! My card is a direct copy of a PTI design team member's card but I love it so much and I'm always so thrilled to send this card to friends! Painted Petals is a very forgiving stamp set, meaning that if you have trouble stamping layers perfectly like I do (even with my MISTI sometimes), you can still create beautiful cards. In fact, I used this set just last week to create two lovely sympathy cards. I often use the sentiments with other stamp sets because I love the way the words nest together. In fact, I would love to see more sentiment sets with smaller phrases that nest with a larger word. Thanks for stopping by and have a GREAT day!!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2017/02/celebrating-the-past-present-and-future-2012.html">The year was 2012</a>. The stamp set was Hello Sunshine. A cute little set that I honestly do not use nearly enough! I'm sure I bought it for sentimental value - I sing "You are my Sunshine" to my little girl nearly every night so I tend to buy any sunshine-themed stamps. The inspiration for this card came from Lynn Put whose blog is called <a href="https://thequeensscene.blogspot.com/?m=1">The Queen's Scene</a>. She makes beautiful cards! I always like to have a few "thinking of you" card on hand to send whenever the need arises. Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your evening!!</span><br />

It is so versatile and beautiful and easy to use. I took my inspiration from a card by <a href="http://dawnmcvey.typepad.com/">Dawn McVey</a>, who always creates the most beautiful projects. I especially love the layers of colored cardstock on the right side of her card. I used PTI's Hibiscus Burst, Pure Poppy, Limeade Ice, & Simply Chartreuse; SU! Daffodil Delight; and Tim Holtz Broken China. The Scripture, which is one of my favorites, is from <a href="https://www.papertreyink.com/stamps/new-every-morning-stamp-set/">New Every Morning</a>. This card is for a dear, sweet friend of mine is who is headed to M.D. Anderson in Houston next week for follow-up cancer treatment. I am so very hopeful that she will do great and will be able to have her port removed. Thanks for stopping by and have a great week!!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">While my little one is napping, I decided to knock out another <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2017/02/celebrating-the-past-present-and-future-2009.html">Papertrey Ink challenge</a>! The year is 2009 and it was a great year for PTI. Friends till the End if one of my favorite stamp sets that was released that year especially when I discovered that I can stamp those wonderful flowers on patterned paper!! I recognized the patterned paper on <a href="http://debbiedesigns.typepad.com/muse_and_amuse/2009/08/potato-optional.html">Debbie Olson's</a> card as soon a I saw it but it turned out to be Cosmo Cricket instead of PTI. You might think it odd that I still have paper from 2009 when it's 2017 but if you ARE thinking that, then you are obviously NOT a serious papercrafter!! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!!</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I am super way behind on my projects for Papertey Ink's 10th anniversary extravaganza but I hope to catch up tomorrow. Today, Nicole and the gang are reminiscing about <a href="http://nicholeheady.typepad.com/capture_the_moment/2017/02/celebrating-the-past-present-and-future-2010.html">2010</a>, which was a tremendous year for my husband and me because we had our precious bonus baby in September of that year!! Very, VERY unexpected but so very wonderful! Anyway, I actually had one of today's spotlight sets, "A Wreath for all Seasons." It's a great little set that I often pull out especially in the fall, although I may work on a little spring wreath this year! Anyway, here is a sweet little Christmas enclosure card that I made for today's challenge. Thanks for stopping by and have a great Valentine's Day!! And remember, it doesn't matter what your Valentine's Day looks like as long as it's meaningful to YOU!! YOU ARE SPECIAL!!</span><br />
