PTI July Blog Hop Challenge - Happy Birthday

I love the inspiration photo from the Papertrey Ink July Blog Hop. It is just such a sweet picture. Drawing inspiration from the bouquet, here is my take:

Not sure if I layered the flowers a little too low as it doesn't show much of the vase. Anyway, I dry embossed the vase and coated it with glossy accents to give it some shine. The card base was also dry embossed.

PTI SAF Lights Out - Thinking Of You

I managed to create 3 cards during camp and I was pleased. I'm slow crafter. Nevertheless, I had a great time watching all the tutorials and getting inspired. I was working on this last card which didn't particular fit into any of the challenges. I was inspired by the ribbon techniques shown and also the Stamper's First Aid session.

I had started on this card but didn't like it so I saved whatever possible and ended with this:

My craft table is a mess but I'm too tired to clean up. And before I sign off, A Big Thank You to Papertrey Ink and all the team members for this awesome camp.
