PTI February Blog Hop!

 

It's time for Papertrey Ink's February Blog Hop.  This month Nichole writes: "Since we just finished up our 3rd Anniversary Festivities, we thought we would do something extra special for this month's Blog Hop!  Design Team Appreciation Day!  Your challenge is to go through the Design Team gallery or any of the Design Team Members' blogs and find a project that is especially inspirational to you!  Then recreate the project with your own spin, making it unique! "

I have two cards for this challenge.  The first is from Lisa Johnson who used her scraps to make the card you see on the left.  You can see her post here.  I've made half a dozen of these cards.  For one, I used the exact colors that Lisa used and then I changed it up a bit.  You can see one of the color changes on the right.  I also combined Hibiscus Burst, Spring Moss and Spring Rain on a set of cards I made for a friend's birthday.  I love Lisa's Flower Garden set.  Love.  It's one of the first PTI sets I bought.

 

 My second card also uses Flower Garden.  I loved Nichole's use of Butterfly Dreams and how she overlapped the butterflies and colored them in with her markers.  Here's her post for it and knew I wanted to try something like it.  My result is on the right.  I used Aquacolor pencils and a blender pen.

Thanks for looking!
