PTI Jan Blog Hop

Hi everyone!  So, I wanted to participate in PTI's blog hop this month which asked participants to choose one of their favorite projects from last year and make a companion project inspired by the first.


I chose this card I made for one of the boys' friend's birthdays.  I love the colors on this card, I like the layout, and I love the stamp set. 



I made a companion card using some of the same colors and primarily the same stamp set.  I also used the technique demonstrated in last week's PTI Make it Monday.  I had this card in mind to make for that challenge, but I never got around to doing it.  I really like how this new one turned out, but if I'm completely honest...I still like the first one better.  I guess that's the way it goes sometimes!  Thanks for visiting!

    The Star Prints stamps are great for birthday cards and both of yours are super. The second has such a fantastic look, using the ghost masking technique - definitely one that I want to try! Thanks for the inspiration.

    Both cards are just terrific! I love that you used the MIM technique-(I didn't get mine posted in time either! ) but yours turned out to be really great and how nice that it worked here instead!
