Cece's masterpiece

Cece loved this one and loved picking out all of the colors.  She had so much fun water coloring for the PTI water color like a master.  We will definitely be using this technique again in the near future. 

It's a good life!

Water color fun!

Here is my card based heavily on the inspiration from Kay.  I was so excited for this one and got this set that has been wish listed for the longest time.  Loved this technique and can't wait to bust it out more often.  This is for the PTI stamp a faire water color like a master.

I added some water droplet elements using my glue.

It's a good life!

Watercolor love

This technique was such as winner in our books.  Mom made this beauty and loved how easy and fun this technique was.  I think we have created a water color monster LOL!  This was for the PTI stamp a faire water color like a master challenge.   Mom used PTI stampers select white for this one.  

Thanks,

Hello

I really enjoyed the PTI stamp a faire pointillism challenge.  I was reminded this year how important it is to slow down and enjoy the process.  This was so fun and added such a pop to the card.  All it took was patience.  

It's a good life!

pointilism Mom's card

I must say, this was my favorite that Mom did.  She was so creative.  She used the dots for the counter element.  I adore how this one turned out.  She made this for the PTI stamp a faire challenge on pointillism.  Mom switched it up and used some PTI Kraft on this one.  

Thanks,
Debi T.

Just keep swimming....

Here is my entry in the PTI stamp a faire splatter challenge.  I loved the ocean scene that was created.  the yarn made such fun waves.  This was my first time busting out this cute set and I can't wait to create more with this cutie.

It's a good life!

Mom's splatter card

This card makes me smile.  If you knew my Mom you would know she is a neat stamper.  She likes everything tidy and in it's place.  She mentioned this was her least favorite challenge because it was so messy LOL!  She used her trusty PTI stamper's select white for the white paper.

Thanks,
Debi T.

Cece splatters!

The stamp a faire paint splatter challenge was Cece's favorite of the night.  She loved picking colors and the yarn drop was her favorite.  

Cece was addicted to the gold lettering big time!

It's a good life!

Masterpiece inspiration

The watercolors have been out in full force.  Love this challenge and can't wait to go back and create with the other inspiration pieces as well.  This is the best day!

Here is my inspiration below found on the PTI stamp a faire masterpiece inspiration.  I loved the background and how the flowers seemed to pop of the page.  

It's a good life!

Masterpieces inspirations

Mom's favorite of the day (okay I think it was a tie for the favorite the watercolor was awesome as well).  She really honed in on the bright colors of the inspiration piece.  This is for the stamp a faire masterpieces inspirations challenge.  Mom used her PTI stampers select white on her card base again!

Thanks,
Debi T

Loving the flower challenge!

I had such a fun time with the zig color markers and the PTI stamp a faire challenge on floral impressionism.  The gilded gold snuck in as well.  Such a bright a cherry card.  

It's a good life!

Talented!!!!

Here is Mom's entry for the stamp a faire floral impressionism challenge.  She busted out the embossing powder and had a ton of fun.  She and drew the mason jar and really knocked it out of the park.  Her base was PTI stampers select white.  

Thanks,
Debi T

Sparkly and fun

Here is Mom's entry into the gilded with gold stamp a faire challenge.  Love the use of glitter paper.  She used her trusted and true PTI stampers select white paper.  She loves the weight.  

Thanks!
Debi T.

It's raining GOLD!!!

This is for the gilded with gold Stamp a Faire challenge.  All I can say is WOW!!!  I am so addicted to this gold paint that Danielle used and I am now addicted to.  I think I ended up with 15 finished cards with tons of gold elements on them all.  LOVED it!!!!

It's a good life!

Starry Night

Here is my PTI Stamp a Faire starry night card.  I am so in love with this new way to do night skies.  I love the ink blending and then watercoloring over it.  It made such a fun finished project.  I added some fun splatters as well.  So much fun!!!!

It's a good life!

Mom's starry night

Mom is at it again.  This is for the PTI Stamp a Faire challenge for Starry nights.  She used her beloved PTI stamper's select white as a base.  It is so thick and makes a great base for one layer cards.

She added glue dots and glitter along with rhinestones for some sparkly and shinny stars.  

Thanks!

Mom's color challenge

My Mom participated in Stamp a Faire today.  She loved carving out the day to create.  She used PTI's stampers select white on her card.  Love all of the colors and how bright the card is.  

Thanks,

Color challenges

Here is my take on the inspiration below.  Challenge one of stamp a faire was a color challenge.  Loved the background and paintbrush techniques.  My little bird was fun to put together.  

It's a good life!

It is well with my soul

Happy Stamp a Faire brought to you by PTI!!!  I must say this is one of my favorite weekends of the year.  I love carving some time to create.  I have been to so many, CHA, Ohio and every year online.  This was my FAVORITE yet!!!  I loved the inspiration from the greats.  I loved getting some stamp sets on the want list.  Really a great weekend.

The first challenge was to pick a favorite creation.  This is a card that has been on my desk for some time.  I adore the water coloring and the look achieved with the zig markers.  The sentiment is really what makes my heart sing.  That is one of my favorite songs and it really calms and centers me.

It's a good life!

PTI Blog Hop!!!!

I am so excited to be participating in the PTI blog hop this month.  It was so fun and I was able to incorporate some of the stamp a faire elements into it as well.  I wasn't expecting to love the gold accent segment as much as I did.  Needless to say I went crazy with the tags and chipboard pieces.  

 I have two cards.  This one I pulled the great colors and the gold elements.  I loved how graphic the picture was.

Love this card as well.  It played with the great melon and gray elements of the card.  I also did some gold splattering on this one.

It's a good life!

Background paper used two ways

Loving the online card classes summer camp with creative chemistry.  It has been so much fun to go back through the videos and bust out the supplies and play.  That is what Tim gives you permission to do.  He is a messy crafter and it is so refreshing!  I love the way he plays with color and mixes it up.  So much fun.  I can't wait to participate in the 103 class.  You can learn all about these classes here.

It's a good life!

MIM!!!

I was hesitant to try this technique for some reason, not wrapping my head around coloring on wet embossing paste.  Even with a video tutorial from PTI LOL!!!  This was a classic try something new MIM and I LOVED it!!!  It also had me looking around at all of the new stencils that have made their way into my house.  This was unused until today.

I finally busted this out today and WOW was it fun.  I did modify it and and used ink smooshed on my craft mat with water instead of busting out the reinkers.  It worked great.

It's a good life!
