I've been working with Papertrey Ink from the first stamp set which made this Design Team challenge incredibly difficult. I'm supposed to CHOOSE a favorite? Yikes....hugely difficult task for me for sure. There are several that I reach for most often... and in all honesty I tend to move toward my own sets more now.... like my own children I guess. LOL! I feel like Remember is my Signature set though...but we'll talk about that another day. ;) These past few months I've been in love with lOvE songs! I think its because I have so many fond memories of the songs I chose AND I worked so hard to refine the set... it was so different when I first put it together! I have been using my little cone image a lot lately so I thought I would give another stamp a chance to play for this card! LOL!
I almost forgot to mention.... ENTER A COMMENT ON THIS POST to enter to win your very own lOvE songs stamp set!!!
I really do love that pail and shovel! I'm so excited to send this to someone to invite them for a day at the beach!!! Wouldn't this be a fun boy birthday card too!?! If you missed my release countdown for lOvE songs you can click HERE for a peek! :)
Make sure to go to all the Papertrey Ink Sr.DT and release DT blogs to enter to win their favorite set! You have until 12am EST February 2nd to enter a comment. Winners will be announced one Nichole's blog HERE... and in the PTI forum. And... a big welcome to Becky to the Sr. DT!!!
There is more to come in the next 14 days... make sure to check back every day... you never know WHAT WILL HAPPEN!!!
Supplies
- Stamps- lOvE song, Simple Alphabet
- ink- Summer Sunrise, Pure Poppy, Ripe Avocado

Flower garden is my particular favorite of your releases. I made a t-shirt for my daughter with it, so versatile. Thanks for all the hard work and great inspiration.

Posted by: Steph | January 31, 2009 at 09:17 PM
OMG, did you have any idea when you created this set the versatility that it would have? I don't have this set, but the "love songs" you used in this set would be a ball to work/play with! :-)
Happyer New PTI Year!

wow - love your latest Love Songs sample. The way you created the background and title work is so awesome and summery fun.
Some of the other girls asked what our favorite PTI set was and since mine is one that you designed, I thought I would share my response:
I really love "Remember". The swirls make an awesome background to any card, the flowers are all different and can be used alone or together and I love all the 2-step images!
