Your Favourite Colour!!

Welcome to another Passion for Papertrey challenge! This time we're going to ask a very simple question.... what's your favourite colour?!!

And then of course make a card using your top choice - the colour doesn't have to be a Papertrey Ink colour if you don't have all the colours, but, as always, must include at least one PTI product :)

Anyone who knows me no doubt is aware of my obsession with all things Aqua and Turquoise so it was a toss up between Aqua Mist and Hawai'in Shores - Aqua Mist has always been my favourite colour but it got some serious competition when I received my Hawai'in Shores colour! Torn between the two I decided to go with the newest addition to my colour collection :)



Recipe:

Stamps: Asian Fusion/Polka Dot Basics/Mega Mixed Messages
Card - Hawai'in Shores/Stampers Select White/True Black
Ink - Hawai'in Shores/True Black
Other - Corner Chomper


Over to Aimes:
"Well I'm not gonna surprise any of ya! Anyone who knows me, knows that my all time favourite colour is green. Pretty much any shade of green will float my boat. Not that I don't love any other colours, just that if I had to pick only one then without a doubt, it'd be green! So without further ado, here's my example:"

Card Recipe
Stamps: Background Basics: Text Style/Turning a New Leaf/Friends 'til the End
Ink: Distress Ink Antique Linen/PTI Spring Moss
Card: Kraft/Vintage Cream
Papers: Bitty Box Basics/Turning a New Leaf
Accesories: EK Success Border Punch/Dark Chocolate Grosgrain Ribbon/Sewing Machine/3D Foam Pads


As our featured stamper this month, Marinette couldn't choose between her two favourtie colours: Red and Kraft! So she did what any other crafty peep would do and use both LOL!

Supplies:
PTI kraft and Pure Poppy, Ink Pure Poppy, tiny tag "Birthday Wishes" stamped with "Mega mixed Messages", stamp PTI "Happy Birthday "Say it with style" , PTI "heart print" ink pure poppy, stamp PTI "delightful dahlia" ink pure poppy

Challenge: Friends!

Hey!

Happy Monday (bank holiday Monday for us here today - woo hoo!) I hope y'all ready for a fun new challenge?!

For this fortnight's challenge we want you to create something with a friend in mind...

For my example for this challenge, I won't surprise anyone by saying I inked up my Friends 'til the End stamp set! Though I was determined to not use the flowers as I always do in that set and instead focus on the words:


I'm hoping that this could almost pass for a masculine card with those colours, though is it too slushy to send a guy a 'friend' card?

Card Recipe
Stamps: Friends 'til the End
Ink: Versamark/Dark Chocolate/Scarlet Jewel/Antique Linen Distres Ink
Cardstock: Kraft/Scarlet Jewel/Ripe Avocado
Accessories: Ripe Avocado Ribbon/Jute Ribbon Twine/Dark Chocolate Button/Cuttlebug/Cuttlebug Embossing Folder


Over to Kate: "For my sample I reached for my beautiful In Bloom set, it's just the most gorgeous set to colour and is going to a very special friend :) I don't think you can tell from the picture but the flower is super glittery!

Recipe:
Stamps - In Bloom
Card - Kraft/Aqua Mist
Ink - Memento Black
Other - Copic Sketch Markers/Glitter/EK Success border punch


And as our featured stamper this month, here's Marinette's fabulous take on the challenge:

Papers: Bazill kraft, papers Turning a new leaf by Papertrey Ink,
Stamps: Papertrey Ink Delightful Dahlia/Daily Designs/Tiny Tag "Friend" from Mixed Messages

So here are the deets:

* To enter, use our inlinkz thingy at the bottom of this post. If you're having problems then just leave a comment with a link to your post featuring the project on your blog or online gallery.
