PTI Stamp-A-Faire 2016!

It's here! PaperTrey Ink's annual Stamp-a-faire! This year it's all about the Masters in Art!

Being an Art History major, this is right up my alley! 

To kick things off, PTI asked us to show off our masterpiece - a project we are most proud of!  Here is mine - which I originally posted here.

I made this card as part of a class.  I have a lot of clear card stock but rarely use it - this class helped me see ways to incorporate it more in my card making. I loved how perfectly simple, yet stunning this card is and that's why I'm so proud of it.

Happy Stamp-A-Faire! Thanks for visiting!
