Hey everyone!! Just popping in to post the two cards I created for PaperTrey Ink's 10th Anniversary.
My first card was inspired by Nichole Heady's 2007 card.
I did not have the set she had so I had to improvise. I used "Background Basics: Text Style II" for my text background and the leaf from the "Harvest Berries" stamp set.
The card below is the card that Nichole created.
I took her inspiration of inking, the text background and the layering of elements on her card to make my card.
It is hard to tell but I added some Spectrum Clear Marker over the leaf to give it some sparkle. Purple is so difficult for me to photograph at night!!
For my second card, I used Michele Leon's card as my inspiration. She used a 2008 set "Floral Frenzy" as her inspiration for a fabulous graphic card.
I did not own this set either so I improvised with using "Heart 2 Heart #12" stamp to make some circles.
This stamp was a bit smaller then Michelle's but I thought it would be perfect. Instead of a scalloped frame, I paired it with PTI's "Pretty Frame Die."
The sentiment was from "Tag It #11." Excuse the fuzz on this photo. I will never stamp another card wearing a black cashmere sweater!! It gets everywhere!!
I have to be honest, neither card came out how I wanted it too. However, that is what happens sometimes. I decided to post them anyway.
Well that is all from me today. I think you for stopping by!!

What wonderful creative designs. The colors you've chosen are so bright and cheery and your cards do lovely justice to their inspiration!
What a lovely pair of cards Nora and such great takes on the inspiration cards. I particularly love your circle card, and I'm so impressed with your spacing of the circles - I nearly always end up with wonky!
