Papertrey May Blog Hop Challenge

Olen jo jonkin aikaa himoinnut Papertrey Inkin leimasimia mutta olen hillinnyt himoni hurjien postikulujen takia. Mutta mutta... Kun kuulin tätini tulevan Suomeen käymään, näin tilaisuuteni tulleen! :) Tilasin siis aimo kasan PTI-kamaa tätini osoitteeseen ja hän kilttinä ihmisenä rahtasi ne minulle :) Näinkin voi postikuluissa säästää! ;) Tämä on siis ensimmäinen PTI-korttini ja ajattelin olla hurja ja liittyä sillä heti samantien Papertrey Inkin blog hopiin, jossa aiheena on kukat. Käytin tässä Beautiful Blooms II -setin leimoja ja stansseja ja Turning a New Leaf -setin leimaa ja stanssia. Tekstileima on Blooming Button Bits -setistä. Muuten käytin tässä vain ihan tavallista kartonkia, Marthan leikkuria ja läpinäkyvää nappia, jonka "pohjaan" liimasin kartonkia, että sain siitä oikean värisen. Sitten vain hieman narua nappiin ja jokunen timantti korttiin.

I have drooled over Papertrey Ink's stamps for ages but so far haven't been able to order anything due to the shipping charges. But when I heard that my Aunt was planning on coming to Finland for a holiday I saw that I had a chance! Ha! I ordered heaps of PTI gear to my Aunt's address and she promised to bring them to me - isn't she lovely? So I saved on shipping charges and got meself plenty of new goodies to play with - hooray! :D So this is my first ever PTI card and I decided to join the PTI May blog hop with it (talk about jumping in feet first...). So to make the card I die cut the biggest flower from felt and the yellow flower from cardstock with Beautiful Blooms II dies and stamped the yellow flower with a stamp from the same set. I glued some cardstock on the "bottom" of a clear plastic button to make it the right colour and tied some twine to it. I die cut and stamped the leaf with a die and a stamp from the Turning a New Leaf set. The sentiment comes from Blooming Button Bits set. I stamped half of the blue cardstock with a tiny flower stamp from the Beautiful Blooms II set and punched some lighter blue cardstock with a Martha Stewart punch and added some ribbon to it. I also added a few rhinestones to the card.

  1. Jee, onnittelut ensimmäisistä PTI-tavaroista :)
    Mulla on samankaltainen suunnitelma työn alla; ollaan menossa kesäkuussa Chicagoon ja tilaan siellä asuvan kaverin osoitteeseen tavaraa. Tekisi mieli ostaa ihan sikana :)
    Kaunis kortti, värit on kyllä tosi kauniit! Ja noilla stansseilla saa niin hienoja juttuja yhdessä leimojen kanssa.

  11. What a lovely card design! The colours are so fresh and uplifting!
    I´m so glad that you found a way to get PTI stamps!
    I bought my first sets from Nina Brackett in Croatia (I was on vacation there and she had some older ones for sale).
    But now I had to pay the shipping fee, because I saw the Postmarks stamp set and the Postage die - and I instantly fell in love!
    I didn´t tell my husband :-) but this was a gift I gave to myself!
    Hugs from Austria!
