Blogger’s Challenge #3…
Apr 7th, 2007 by Jen
As you can see from this week’s postings {oh my goodness, I posted EVERYDAY…woohoo}, I am stepping out of my sweet little Stampin’ Up comfort zone, and trying out some new stamps. I’m on the bandwagon, which I am sure is set out for a loooong ride, with all of the new PaperTreyInk fans. My foot is a tappin’ for the 15th to see what else Nichole has in store for us!! This card is using stamps exclusively from the Green Thumb set and I am sending it as a RAK {bonus points for me…yippeee…LOL}. Aren’t these flowers yummy?…and the boot and strawberries and…{you get my point}. So with that, I leave you with this challenge:
Blogger’s Challenge #3:
Use any and only PaperTreyInk set(s) to create a card and/or project.
Guidelines: {Remember, I just post these so I don’t get emailed silly questions. Bottom line…just have fun with it!!}…
1. Use any and only PaperTreyInk set(s) to create a card and/or project.
2. Post it on your blog and provide a link under this thread by Friday. To keep it simplified/unjumbled with everyone, please follow this format for commenting:
Real Name/SCS Name
Blog Link
any further comments.
If you don’t have a blog, post it in your SCS gallery. Those of you that intend to post both places, please just link your blog.
3. Be sure to include the recipe for your projects in your blog/gallery.
4. ***Bonus Points*** for sending your project as a RAK. Be sure to tell us if you do!!!

Ink: Pumpkin Pie, Cool Caribbean, Marigold Morning, Certainly Celery
Other: Dimensionals, 3d Glue Dots {they are thicker than Dimensionals}, Ribbon, Brads
Your card is so cute. Now I only have the word set, so this is going to be tough!! If I have time I’ll do it. I love your blog, BTW. Check it every day. Keep up all the lovely work. It is eye candy for all of us.

Thanks for inviting me to participate, Jen! It was so fun to stamp for fun and not for “work”!
This card is beautiful! I’m not sure how I came about your blog tonight (I clicked on the link in someone else’s blog…) but I could stay here all night just oooohhh’ing and aaaahhhh’ing over your cards! I’m already formulating some cute notecards for my sister!
I’ve got you on my bloglines list and I’ll definitely be back!
These PaperTrey sets are so agreeing with you, Jen! I love all the cards you’ve created with them. They definitely suit your crisp, clean and stylish way of stamping. Linda

Thanks for the challenge - I’ve been playing with my new sets and here’s what I’ve got so far. Will have a few more samples by the end of the week - I’m sure!

Jen, thanks for the challenge. This was fun! So far, i’ve only got the first paper trey set, but I’m going to order the Green Thumb one tomorrow. Even so, it made for a cute card with just the flowers.

I’ve just been cruising your blog, and I think your talent is incredible! Gorgeous card.
I could have sworn that I posted this, so if it shows twice please forgive me!
I made this card, and hand delivered the card to my mom, who had a nasty fall over the weekend.
So, I am adding it to your blogroll challenge!
Have a great week, Jen!
p.s. LOVE your little easter bunny, she is very very cute!
Love your card and I’m loving these images. There are so many possibilities!
