PTI--not SAF
Before I consider doing any of the PTI SAF challenges, I finished cards for PTI MIM and PTI Transformation Tuesday.
First is MIM, Layering Patterns over Images. I've stamped text & music over images, but I don't remember using a geometric stamp until now. I actually made 2 cards.
My first thought was Turning a new Leaf, since the images are solid. Then I decided to try Spruce & Sprigs since the holly leaves are larger. I used Delicata Golden Glitz to layer the Cover Up: Diamonds on both cards, but stamped the first vertical & the second horizontal.
The sentiment for the leafy card is from Friendly Flowers & I used gold Pico Embellisher for the dots. The sentiment for the Christmas card is from Snowflake Flurries & I added a bit of Stickles for some sparkle. So fun to use some of my huge stash of ribbon again.
Next is my Transformation Tuesday entry. I really love this card I made in 2016 for one of the PTI CAWU challenges.

| Original Card from 2016 |
Decided to use the layout for a Christmas card this time. I started by picking one of the papers from PTI Candy Cane Prints & used matching inks for the wreath.

| New Version 2018 |
The dotted circle from Shape Shifters: Circle 3 was embossed to use as a guide, like Heather recently did.
The images are from Gathered Garden & the sentiment is from Splits: 'Tis The Season. The silver glitter strip is Heidi Swapp tape & the silver dots are Stickles. It'd be fun to make this wreath in a variety of colors for various occasions. I'm also entering WAW. Thanks so much for taking time to stop by.
Lovely work again Greta, you do elegant so well and it's always a pleasure to visit.

ReplyDeleteOh, this is a beautiful set of cards today, Greta! I really like your choice of colors, the Delicata Golden Glitz overlay, and your change of direction on your cards/diamond cover up stamping! The wreaths are both beautiful and will be on my list of ideas for this Christmas season.
