10PM: 2nd Anniversary Tradition- Cotton, presented by Michelle Leone

Staying with the theme of a second traditional anniversary gift of cotton Michelle Leone asked us to create a project using her lavender sachet as inspiration. This was Michelle's first time to create a craft video tutorial. I enjoyed it. Very inspirational and simple to follow. 

For my entry I kept to Michelle's design and  improvised with dies and fabric I had.

I have left a gap open as I have to fill with lavender when it has completely dried. I used the leaf dies from Meadow Greens, petal dies from Beautiful blooms 11 die 1 and die 3 and the base is cut using a die from Stitched rectangles die collection all by Papertrey Ink.

Thanks for stopping by today.

Stephanie Gold a super talented Papertrey Ink presented the second year anniversary tradition challenge Cotton.  Her video presented a very pretty card using lovely colours, glitter and cotton.

I chickened out of using the glitter but opted instead for some glittered patterned and textured paper I found in my stash of papers. The desk is getting pretty crowded and messy at this stage and I just could not take the chance of an accident with all that glitter.

For my entry I used an embroidered cotton thread heart I had made a long time ago with my Brother embroidery sewing machine. It was great to get to use it in a project.

The cardstock I used were stampers select white, limeade ice and sweet blush. Ribbons, pins and patterned paper from stash. The die is big basics Thinking of you die by Papertrey Ink.

Thanks for stopping by today. Happy Stamping !

It is wonderful to see some old familiar faces from Papertrey Inks past years. I always loved Laura Bassen's  style and creativity and I enjoyed her challenge this evening. Laura was using the first anniversary traditional gift of paper as her product to highlight and she demonstrated how she made her card on her video.


I improvised with what I had and created a new baby card. No sewing for the moment as I am on catch up from last night !


All the cardstock I used are from PTI, the text  block is called Baby Die from PTI and the ribbon die cut is from Pieces of confetti rattled collection.

Thank you so much for stopping by to visit my blog today. Happy Stamp a faire weekend.

For this challenge Rebecca Luminarias  asked that we create paper embellishments to decorate a package or gift. Her video was super easy to follow and visually inspiring.


My entry for the challenge used Papertrey Ink cardstock - aqua mist and raspberry fizz. The box is also from Papertrey Ink.  I think it is called the recipe box.
