PTI 9th Anniversary Thank You Card Challenge




Hello, Friends,

This is my third and final card I was able to make for Papertrey Ink's 9th Anniversary Challenge.  I made this card for an awesome card challenge- to make a Thank You card and send it to the PTI Warehouse Staff.  This wasn't my original idea but I left the other stamp set I was going to use upstairs.  Once I go down, there's no way I can come back up unless I'm going to stay.  Since all my supplies were downstairs I had to come up with a new idea.

Since the "Morning by Morning" stamp set is one of my favorites, I decided to use it instead.  My Dad has always liked Morning Glories so I knew I wanted this stamp set when I saw cards being made with it on Pinterest.  This stamp set was one of my very first PTI sets which led to other stamp sets and dies.  I have their assorted cardstock pack which seems like great paper.  I don't have any of their ink pads but I have been told by other customers that they are great.  

For my card, I used Memento Inks which have matching markers.  I added a little bit of extra color using the markers that matched the inks I used.  

It was crazy hard to make these cards tonight.  It will be a while before I get to make more because these were so hard.  However, I was determined to not miss out on another thing due to my health problems.  That being said, my back is absolutely killing me and my arm muscles feel like they are on fire.  Those muscles got quite a workout stamping compared to my regular routine.

By the way, don't you love that sentiment?  It's from the "Beautiful Blessings" stamp set.  If I remember right, I got it at the same time I got the "Morning by Morning" set.  Papertrey Ink has some awesome sentiment stamps.  I encourage you to check them out.  

I'll be back again as soon as I can.  Be sure to check out my other posts from late Sunday night and early Monday morning!

Happy Stamping!
