Papertrey Ink January 2013 Blog Hop!

Oh my..... how I'm lovin' all of the inspiration over at the PTI Blog Hop! Everyone must have been pretty hopped up about this challenge because there are already 148 entries! 

Although I do not reach for the black/smokey shadow card stock as often as I should, I really enjoy that color contrast - especially when some bright and beautiful flowers are involved. 

I have a few more projects in the works, so.... floral stamps, here I come! 

CASE me some lovely Avery Elle!

I loved Heather's card so much that I had to make one of my own. Such a pretty layout! And soft or bright, it is lovely! I may feel the need to duplicate this in many, many color combos!

Have a happy weekend!

Just a little more AE.......

Here is a long overdue Avery Elle Valentine! And, YAY, a card!

I've been down in the craft cave playing around with some new stamps and older punches, dies, and embossing folders trying to come up with some fairly CAS cards to send to my loved ones this Valentine's Day!

Also... been doing a bit of cleaning and organizing (in an attempt to simplify my crafting routine). That's what you're supposed to do in January, right? However, I don't have much faith that any semblance of order will be maintained! Ha.
