Yay, I can FINALLY spill my secret!!! I am going to be Papertrey Ink's Distinguished Guest Designer for October and November! To say that I'm honored is an understatement. ;) When Nichole emailed me, I almost fell out of my chair. I just adore anything and everything PTI. I drool over the new releases every month and am always amazed by the super talented design team. I can't believe I get to play along with them for these next couple of months!
To celebrate, Papertrey is giving away 'Anabelle's Favorites'. Here is what you can win. These are definitely some of my favorite 'go to' products when I'm designing.
(I'm trying to get a bigger graphic, but for now, click on the image to see it more clearly.) The prize package includes... Damask Designs, Polka Dot Basics 2,In Bloom stamp sets, Kraft, Lemon Tart and Sweet Blush cardstocks, Lemon Tart and Sweet Blush buttons, and some Aqua Mist swiss dot ribbon.
You have until 7am EST Friday, October 9th to post a comment here and be eligible to win this prize package. Please play nice, only one entry per person. One winner will be randomly selected at the close of the contest and announced on the October Release Winners page before noon EST the same day.
So, in honor of tonight's announcement, I thought I'd leave you with a few of my favorite PTI cards. (You may have seen a couple of these before.)
This one uses Damask Designs along with two of my favorite PTI colors - Aqua Mist and Lemon Tart.
I used the Simply Stationery Set along with Melon Berry, Aqua Mist and Dark Chocolate on this one.
The lighting on this one is lousy, but you'll get the idea. I used Star Prints and Polka Dot Basics on here.
And this last one uses Tags for Easter and Mega Mixed Messages.
Thanks so much for stopping by and for celebrating my big secret with me! Have a great day.
