Papertrey Ink - 7th Anniversary: Day Two/Three: I Just Love You!!!

Hello,
Just a quick post with a couple of cards. I missed the deadline this morning for Day Two's post so I made another card for day 3 too.  Here are both cards:

The "Friend" card was for yesterday's challenge.  I always forget about the time change back east and miss the deadline!  LOL!  You would think I would learn!!!

The "I just love you" card without the additional stamp/ink is for today's Anniversary challenge:

In honor of the continuing 7th Anniversary festivities at Papertrey Ink today's challenge was to choose 7 supplies in 7 minutes and make a card in 17 minutes!  What a ton of fun!!!  And it is in honor of this year's Stamp-a-Faire event with the theme of "Time Travel"!  I just love Stamp-a-Faire and think it will be so much fun to participate again this year!  :)  I love watching the video's that Nichole creates each year!  So fun to see all of your friends doing this stamping thing that we all love!


Here are my 7 supplies:
White cardstock - PTI
Embossed vellum piece leftover on my desk (trying to use up the HUGE box full of card parts near my desk!)  I really should show a picture - it is FULL!
Free Printable: PTI - yesterday's challenge post
Patterned Paper:  Iraliamijashop - ETSY
Twine
Tiny Felt Die Cut flower from my desk - I cut several for the previous card but decided 1 was perfect!
Pink bling piece for flower center


We did not have to include adhesives so I am hoping that includes glitter glue?  I "adhered" some to my vellum heart paper for a wee touch of sparkle! :)




I made the card in 9 minutes 37 seconds!  Probably because I had made the same card the day before!  But I liked it so much I plan on making several more to give for Valentine's Day!  I am totally hooked on embossed vellum right now and have a whole bunch of ready made pieces on my desk that need to be used!!!

Thanks for the wonderful printable! I want to use them all!!!! Such lovely designs!!!  Perhaps some more 17 minute cards will be made this morning!

Hugs,
Jill

    1. Thanks Nancy! Yes it is a new header! I asked Beatriz Jennings of Iralamija shop on ETSY to design it for me. I love her artwork and I asked for a heart banner with her signature style and she made me this! I love it!!!
