♥ January PTI Blog Hop Challenge ♥

♥♥♥ For today's Simon Says Post, please scroll down! Thank you! ♥♥♥

I couldn't wait to join in on the fun in this months PTI Blog Hop! The challenge is a fun one! The challenge is to pick a favorite project from 2011 and create a new one inspired by that project!


I must admit though, this card from last year is not my all-time fave from last year but it used one of my all-time fave stamp sets! PTI's Love Lives Here. The original post is HERE.


My new card uses the Love Lives Here set as well as my other all-time fave stamp set, Garden Variety. Oh, I could just use both of these sets forever and never touch another.


The papers I used are by Echo Park, Making Memories and My Mind's Eye. I also used PTI's Seed Packet Frame die, a punched heart, heart stick pin, pearls, satin ribbon and chunky glitter.


I hope you all have a sweet nighty night!!
