Good morning friends!! Today is the 25th so that means you have arrived at my Papertrey Ink Blog Hop post! This time last month I was basking in fresh memories of Stamp-a-faire and selling my townhouse. Today I am using some of the fun things I bought at SAF and living with my dad for 2 months until the new house is ready…eek! But let’s get on with the cards, ‘cause that’s why you’re here ;) This first card was inspired by the inside of this sweet suitcase, the gorgeous flowers and the colour of the preserves (which I’m hoping is raspberry jam! lol) It is also dedicated to my sweet and dear blog friend, Janelle, who is going through a very difficult time right now…many of you know her (Show and Tell blog) as she works magic with PTI products. Please keep her in your prayers.
The second card is inspired by the dress the woman is wearing, the flowers again and the colours in general.
Thanks so much for stopping by…I’ll leave you with a few photos from SAF, just in case you didn’t see them in an earlier post ;) You all know the PTI DT, the extras are me and Lynn, my sweet blog friend, hostess and shopping enabler!! LOL Seriously, I would’ve glued myself to Dawn’s hip and gone home with her if she let me!! She and all the team members were just the sweetest!! Ah, still pinch me :)
what’s in them?

Good morning Moe! Yummilicious is how I describe Janelle's card. I of course love the damask design on the background...and Sahara Sand...with a pop of pink...qualifies for yummilicious card!
Oh...and the pop of orange/yellow on the second is perfect! Happy hopping!
I really like your first card....but I think the second is my favourite! I love damask, but the skewed tag and that awesome flower on the second card got me :)
Shame it's not a leopard print dress that lady's wearing, right?! LOL!
Gorgeous cards, Diva! Love the muted colours and the way you make the pink totally pop on both cards - scrummy! :)
Hugs,
Duchess

So funny, you and I linked up right about the same time - we're right after one another on the list :)
the second card is my fav too! thanks for sharing your pti photos!
Both cards are stunning and great interpretations of the picture.
Beautiful cards - love them both! ;-)
What gorgeous cards! Love all the beautiful details. That damask background is so lovely. Your flowers are amazing, too! Pure eye-candy! Have a great day!
Both cards are gorgeous! Love how the picture inspired you. And, love the pictures from SAF. TFS!
These are both beautiful, Maureen! I just ordered the Newsprint stamps and love how you used them on your card! I can't wait to get mine!
Oh my goodness both are wonderful! love that you've made a second card focusing on the dress! Happy Hopping :)
Two absolutely FABULOUS cards with perfect interpretations of the photo! Stunning!!!
Oh my, I don't know which of these I love more! I love the soft gray damask paired with the delicious Raspberry Fizz flower on the first card, but I'm completely smitten with all the delightful layers on the second one. Great projects!
Wonderful cards with great use of layering and colour combos. The flower on the first one is so sweet and I love all the stitching on the second one.
these are both so pretty- the details you picked up to perfection & your perfect execution!!! and lucky you to be at SAF!!
Your cards are gorgeous!!
gorgeous card!!!! love the photos, too!! wish I could have gone, maybe next time!!!
What great cards Maureen!
Two great cards, Moe :) Loving the felt flower and damask on the first and the great colour combo and layered elements in the second. How fun to meet Dawn - she seems to be such a sweetheart. Have a great day :)
Oh, Maureen -- love them both, but - of course - have to be partial to the first. :) Thanks so much for thinking of me. Your prayers mean more to me than you know! Sending you lots of love and hugs!
Love your second card, I'm a big fan on using tags on cards.
Both cards are absolutely fantastic!! Gorgeous work!
Great job on both of them! Love all the different elements and your use of the colors.
Not just one, but TWO awesome cards for the blog hop?! The second is my favorite, I love the colors and layout of it. I can totally see where you got your inspiration for both :)
Oh my! Two gorgeous cards! Can it be? A whole mont since SAF? So glad you're going to be able to stamp in your new living space. Just think, next stop? Fabulous Studio! By the way, lunch is on me!
Double perfection! And beautiful photos to boot! I am so glad you're able to craft while you're on the move, Maureen. Amazing cards!
You did a fantastic job on both cards! Love that you got to meet the DT too! Lucky girl!
Hey, I just noticed you live in Kamloops! I live in Burnaby! Always nice to see people from the same area :)
I love both of your cards - my favourite parts are the flowers on each of them. Gorgeous!
You always do such amazing things with flowers......these are no exception! I love your felt flower on the first card a LOT!
I've been trying to choose a favorite of the two, but I give up. they are both wonderful. thanks for the inspiration.
Love the damask and the flower!
Oh my! PTI glory has me wanting more stamps - you're the worst kind of inspiration ;)
These are beauty and your take on the colors is absolute perfection!
