Finished Project and Why I Had to Have PTI Friendship Jar






Edit: How funny. I decided to get my act together and update my blog. I just happen to check PTI's Blog Hop and I have a post that qualifies. The short story is I had seen the 7 Gypsies trays in a store and thought they were neat. It ended there. So, here I come across this website and I got inspired and did it! I won't have tried the tray without this inspiration. So here is my PTI Blog Hop entry.

So..you get inspired from a website, than you search for the products to create your own. This is how my Halloween ATC came into existence. I saw this post and loved it! I found the 7Gypsies Printers Tray and than it was a matter of theme. I love Martha Stewart's Vampire Halloween Collection this year, so I started with that paper stack. I found most of my embellishments at Micheals. I had to incorporate the bug paper and after seeing Nichole's post for Friendship Jar Fall Fillers, I caved and bought Friendship Jar and Fall Fillers! I love both sets!

Quick notes about the project. My kids love the hologram sticker lady. She turns into a skeleton. The moon in the upper left corner has MS Glow in the Dark glitter on it. I colored on my rhinestones with Black Copic Marker..love that aspect of them...makes the most out of your rhinestones.

  4. This is the first time I've been able to participate with the PTI fun being from Wales so the time difference never allowed. I'm also new to PTI products and have only just had my first order so am having loads of fun seeing what others create with the items.
