PTI Challenge - Paint by number sketch

Well, PTI has done it yet again! Made me stay up until the witching hours of the night card making! LOL!

In celebrating the February/3rd Anniversary of PTI release, Nichole has issued some challenges. The prize? Why, PTI product of course! Worth every minute I'm not sleeping that's for sure!!!

Today's challenge was the sketch below.


Based on our username on the PTI forum, our color palatte was chosen for us but we had free reign as to how the colors were placed.


Here's my take on this challenge...



Paper: Kraft, Stampers Select White, Enchanted Evening, Bitty Box Basics in Spring Rain (all PTI)
Stamps: Sentiment (Favor It Baby - PTI), Star (2008 Holiday Tag Collection - PTI)
Ink: Sentiment (Enchanted Evening - PTI), Star (Breeze - CTMH), Ranger Distressing Inks in Antique Linen and Walnut Stain
Ribbon: Twill in Aqua Mist (PTI)
Button: White/Cream (PTI)
Other: Fiskars border punch (Upper Crest), Charm/Buckle (???)

I hope you like it! It was fun to make! I have 2 girls so doing a boy card was another GREAT challenge for me... I took a step out of my box I'm usually so content and cozy in! :)

Random projects

I'm not going to list all of the supplies used but if you would like specifics, please leave me a comment and I'll get back to you! Lots and lots of stuff here and it is in no particular order....

Thank you card


Sympathy card

My 2009 Christmas card

Ornaments for Mia's preschool class. I kept them VERY simple so that Mia could help as much as possible. Plus the paper was pretty enough to just leave it alone.

Gifts for Mia's preschool teachers. I forgot to take a picture of the completely assembled box but I used the sheer aqua ribbon that you see in the back tied in a bow with a couple of tiny ornament around the sheer green ribbon. I filled the boxes with a chocolate candy assortment. It was SOOO pretty!

An ornament I altered for a friend.

For a card swap.

For the Halloween card swap
