I am adding both of these to the challenge today.
Make a Birthday Card for PTI
Two cards .
All the products are from Papertrey Ink, but the sequins.
I used 7 things: two stamps two papers and 3 inks and it took less than 17 Min.
I used Propose a Toast and Stylish Sentiments: Birthday On the card above.
I loved having these color recipe otherwise I don't think I would have combined these colors. Thanks Papertrey Ink!
I so loved stamping this card below ( both of them really)
Stitches & Swirls Solid Stitches & Swirls Papertrey Ink - Birthday Trio Die Collection (set of 3) All Papertrey Ink Products!
Edited to try and show the birthday is cut out of gold paper
not black.
I had so much fun with this set. At first I was not sure what to stamp first. So I went to Nichole’s blog and she explained it was easier to stamp the stitches first. I heat embossed my stitches in gold, then stamped. You will be seeing lots of this… I tend to over do something I love. For some reason my red is not as red as it should be … must be the iphone photo.
Hope you enjoy your day and weekend.

Wow, Marybeth, both of these are so beautiful as always. Love the stitches and swirls and the other one turned out much better than mine.
ReplyDeleteBright and colorful! love both your cards!!
ReplyDeleteI wasn't too sure if I needed the solids to go with the stitches and swirls stampset, but after seeing your gorgeous card I definitely know I will, ha, ha.
Oh, my wishlist is only getting longer and longer, sigh.
Bye and have a wonderful weekend too,
Marjolein
so very pretty - and hey feel free to overdo what you love - its wonderful!
ReplyDeleteLove the way you created your diagonal stripes on the first card Marybeth, but it is the Stitches & Swirls card that caught my eye and brought me in for a closer look - just beautiful!
ReplyDeletebeautiful floral card!! love the gold!
ReplyDeleteThese are both fantastic. Love the fun bubble strips in the first card, and your second is so beautiful and elegant. Great idea to emboss in gold and then stamp. I have these sets, and they are gathering dust. Must pull them out and CASE you.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty, Marybeth! The second one with the gold is AWESOME!!!!
ReplyDeleteThese cards are amazing. (I'm still having trouble with being literal on the layouts. (Are you starting to have a feel for the upright (or is that uptight) kid I was. Don't color outside the lines!)
ReplyDeleteThe pale gold embossed stitching with the colors you used for the flowers is a knock-out. The black birthday spanning the design with the few black flower centers - divine.
And the bubbles standing in for stripes; I bet lots of those start showing up in the near future. (There are those perfect sequins again.)
Hope you play along some more for PTI's 7th. You're one of my favorite designers using their sets. Thanks for making the days brighter this time of year!
Both of these are amazing! The second card really looks like it's been stitched! What amazing stamps!
ReplyDeleteThese are both fantastic, Marybeth! Love how you used the bubbles. Your second card is stunning! Love how realistic the stitching looks.
ReplyDeleteLOVE THESE! So much stampy goodness. Brilliant idea to use the dots from Propose a Toast and your stitches card is gorgeous! I don't think you could possibly overdue using these sets....which I now want because of this gorgeous card!
ReplyDeleteMarybeth, you and florals were MADE for each other! Your gold stitched bouquet is just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteDelightful cards Marybeth! The first is cute and happy. And your floral card is STELLAR!!! You can do this over and over and I wouldn't mind one little bit. LOVE this card my friend!!!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty Marybeth. The timed card is so colorful. Very CAS. Love the embossed stitches. The birthday in the black is stunning!
ReplyDeleteBoth are great cards...but the stitches one is my favorite. Even though it is time consuming...I like to stitch on cards...but I have a difficult time finding patterns. This stamp would be perfect! It is now on my wish list.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the gold embossed stitches and the colors are Fantastic! And let's not forget the FAB sequin card, too! BOTH Wonderful!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! Stitches and Swirls card exploded with color! Love that gold paper sentiment. And I would have never thought to put the bubbles on the diagonal like that. Love them!
ReplyDeleteYour cards are wonderful, Marybeth! I truly love your style!
ReplyDeleteMarybeth...I am in love with both of your cards, they are just beautiful. I love, love how you used the bubbles for your diagonal images on your first card, so much fun and all the sequins too. Your stitched card is simply amazing...I have been holding out on getting those sets but after seeing your card, I need to add them to my wish list!
ReplyDeleteFantastic cards, Marybeth! I just love them both. Love how you used the colors on the Stitches card, and. I love the creative way you used the proposal bubbles on the birthday card. Very clever and fun! Thanks so much for stopping by my blog this week. I appreciate it. ;-)
ReplyDeleteBoth your cards are gorgeous Marybeth!!! Love what you have done!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards Marybeth! I always love coming to your blog and seeing what you've been up to. You never disappoint!
