Papertrey Ink January Blog Hop

Hello! This month’s PTI blog hop challenge sounded good at first, but then I remembered what happened the last time I CASEd myself…it was HARD!  My CASEd card did not turn out as well as the original and I chalked it up to the process.  When I love a card, it’s the process I love as well.  So with that in mind, I tried to enjoy the process and not get caught up in the CASEing part.  It was also hard choosing ONE favourite project, so I chose TWO (with 3 pictures) that made me smile all over again and used a lot of PTI products.  The smaller cards are the originals.

You may recognize these next original cards…they were my entries for the October and November Blog Hops.  I just could not NOT use the woodgrain and hello friend stamps again!! I still love them :)

Now, before you go, I hope you’ll let me share some exciting news with you :)  Have you seen the January CARDS yet?  You may just recognize the Designer of the Month {wink!}.  Oh, and I also wanted to share the gorgeous view I get to come home to every night now that we’re in the new house :)  Thanks! I look forward to viewing all the wonderful projects on the hop after work :)
