PTI January Blog Hop!

PTI January Challenge


The Challenge: This month's challenge is to create a card that has the "total package".  Create any style card you can dream up, then take it the next step.  Embellish the interior and adorn the envelope.  You might even want to add a little something to the back of the card!

I made this card and envelope for my best friend’s 50th birthday.  I hosted a dinner for her on Saturday night.






Stamps:  Around and About Sentiments (PTI)
Paper: Kraft, White, Bitty Star Basics (PTl)
Ink: True Black, Fresh Snow (PTI)
Punches: circle
Other: buttons, dimensionals, stickles (from my stash)


Good Luck to all!
