Hello friends!!!
After a really long absence I'm back to take part in today's post for the 6th year festivities for PTI!!!
This year my mojo is really "sleeping" so I found myself not taking part in any of the contest of these past days....





but I had promised myself that I would make something for the last day at least!!! And I couldn't pass the challenge to create something for the little fairy in our lives!!!! So I made a headband for my sweet little girl.


I used the build-up a flower by PTI and handcut the rest to make the felt flowers....
My daughter just loved it!!!! Those are her favorite colors anyway!!! Haha....

Thanks a lot!!!
Oh,... and happy Valentine's to everybody out there for yesterday!!!!

Wedding wishes...

Hello again!! This is my fourth post for the PTI challenge in which we had to use both leaves and butterflies in a project!! PTI is celebrating its 5th anniversary and today is the 9th day of the festivities!!!
This time I also made a card, using the butterfly die by PTI and some leaves from Turning a new leaf also by PTI stamped in chartreuse. I also used some dot circles in ripe avocado and red poppy and some red ribbon. The sentiment is also by a set by PTI.


Here is a closer look...


Thanks sooo much for visiting!!!

Hello again!!

I'm taking part in the PTI festivities for the 9th day now, celebrating their 5th anniversary!!
This time Nichole asked as to use both butterflies and leaves in a project...
Butterflies is one of my favorite themes!!! Soooo..... after created two projects, one on a piece of marble (you can see it here) and the other a shadow frame as a present for a wedding anniversary (you can see it here), I also made a couple of cards...
Here is my first one (the second will come on a later post)....



I used the butterfly die by PTI in poppy red, grey and white. I made an opening in the middle of the card using the same die and I die cut and stamped the leaves from the Harvest berries in Chartreuse. The sentiment is from a set by PTI as well...


Thanks so much for visiting!!!



Valentine's Day!!!

Today it is Valentine's day and of course I couldn't pass even though we don't celebrate it as much in Greece!!
I made a little something for our dearest friends who are celebrating their wedding anniversary today!!
As I also wanted to take part in the PTI festivities which are still on, and since one of my favorite themes is butterflies... I decided to play along!!
PTI's challenge today is to make a project using leaves and butterflies....
So this is my take! I made a 3D frame with their names heat embossed in gold, on (of course their names are in greek, lol!!!).
I chose to use the leaves from the Life set by Lisa Johnson, one of my all time favorites from PTI, in earth colors, gold, chocolate and bronze. I heat embossed some of them in white. I added some butterflies in gold with my Martha Stewart punch and some scarlet blings. The sentiment is from Life as well...



Here is another caption of the frame....


And here is some detail....
I hope they like it!!! And of course I hope you like it as well!!!
Thanks for stopping by!!!

Happy Week!!

Although here in Greece everything is in a turmoil and the situation is really sad from all aspects.... I'm trying to paint my world happy and take part in the PTI festivities for their 5th anniversary which are going on for the 9th day now!!
The challenge for today is to create something with butterflies and leaves...
So I made this piece of marble. I chose the leaves from the Life set by Lisa Johnson which is one of my favorites. I also punched out some butterflies using the Martha Stewart punch, and finished it off with the fence die by PTI. The sentiment comes from Love lives here, another much loved set!!!


Here is some detail...

Hope you like it!!
Thanks so much for stopping by!!!
