Ombre Stenciled Background

Here's my card for the challenge at Papertrey Ink Make It Monday #241. You can check it out HERE I used PTI stamps Life,Up Up And Away and I exchanged the basket bottoms on the balloons for the ones in Everyday Button Bits. The only background stencil I own is the little circle/dots that I added.
It turned out ok though.

Paper Clippings

This is my card for the challenge over at Papertrey Ink Capture the Moment Paper Clippings My card uses 9 different techniques as a part of the celebration of PTI's 9th anniversary. I used Aqua mist and Razzberry fizz. My main stamps used were PTI Birds of a Feather along with the die.
My 9 techniques are: Paper piecing in a stamped square, chalk coloring over versamarked stamped, using stamp pad on embossing folder, just stamped, ink splattering, embossing folder with punched circle, sponging color over embossed, gel medium over stencil, clear embossed and then inked.

MatchBox Valentines/Gifty packets

My projects are for the Make It Monday #237 A fun little matchbox package. I made a couple of them by recycling the tea boxes. It worked perfectly to tuck some goodies and tea into them. I used PTI products, Polka dot parade, Little Bitty Bird, sentiment from Damask Designs and Lovely Layers. As you can see on the contents I added a little note of "Pay It Forward". I will leave it anonymously in someone's mailbox. Hope it travels to a few more people. I put in a tea, hot chocolate voucher and a little cinnamon chocolate. I tied it up and didn't staple it in so that it would be easier to fill again.
