So, here is the cover of the paper bag book I've been working on. The Layered Mats and Frames #37 Challenge was a perfect technique for the cover. I was very happy with the results. Thanks for looking.

Here is MIM challenge #2: Vellum Sentiment Strip. One reason that I don't use vellum very much is because the adhesive shows through unless you have vellum adhesive but Erin shows us a great tip by scoring the vellum you can hide it right behind the score lines! Ingenious-thanks Erin!!! I used Half & Half and Just the Ticket PTI stamps and ticket die.

Another entry and this time I did challenge #5 Distressing Edges. I distressed the outer edge and inked it up a little.

This is the MIM #3 challenge: Glitter Strips with Scor-tape.  This was a great technique. The embossed paper gave it more texture too. I very carefully cut the PTI vine border die cut in half becuase I didn't like the looks of it on top of the glittered strip.  The stamps and paper are Stampin Up. 

Thanks for looking!

I did the very first MIM challenge, Go-to Sentiment Card. Erin challenges us to pick a theme and use your sentiment sets to create what you want the card to convey. So, this is it. I used many sets, anyone have any questions, just holler. Everything is PTI except large spellbinders die cut. Have a good day!

For MIM this week we were challenged to choose any MIM from the 46 challenges in 2011. There were  many that I did not partake in at the beginning of the year, before I found PTI and the blog found here:

I chose to do #12: Line Frame 101. I needed some clean and simple cards, not to mention, quick and easy as well! I did them all a bit different. I used Wishing You..the same set Nichole did in the post found here:
Make It Monday #12: Line Frame 101 and used various sentiments.   I hope to try a few more this week if time allows.

Have a great day!
