First of all, I would like to thank each and every one of you who come and visit this blog on a daily basis for inspiration and just to hang out. I would very much like to offer you something special today for seeing me through a great, actually, amazing year of stamping. I have only been staming for a little over a year now, and am blown away by the talent I see from all of you on a daily basis. It has taught me a lot. First, another picture…and then hold on to your hats. You won’t believe what I am giving away for my double celebration today.
I made these necklaces with square white buttons called “Start Ups” from Buttons Galore. They are fantastic to alter. I altered them using some images from the PTI Anniversary Set. This set is a very special set, because you have to buy over 12 main sets for the year in order to EARN this set for free. It has 21 sentiments and 13 fantastic images to work with. A full, beautiful set. One of my favorites that PTI has come out with. What am I getting to? Well…since I have been blessed to be a part of the fantastic design team over at PTI, and I have my design team set for this right now. What you may not know is…as a customer, I have earned this set as well. I have been an avid PTI fan from the beginning, and would like to offer this special set up for blog candy today on my first anniversary of blogging AND my birthday!!
You may think I have gone crazy. Just crazy for YOU. I have not received my set in my hands yet, but when I do, I will send it to the lucky winner!! What do you have to do? Well…if you have a blog, just add me to your blogroll, please! If not…just say you don’t but leave a comment on why you come here!! It is that simple! Since I think this will be a VERY popular giveaway…I will leave this open for comments until Wednesday. I will pick a winner on Wednesday at 9pm eastern time. Thanks for celebrating with me today!
These necklaces are so simple yet beautiful. I don’t have a website yet, but it could be a possibility in the future. Your cards are a great inspiration.
Oh yeah “Happy double Birthday”
Happy Birthday! How wonderful of you to GIVE a gift for your own birthday!
I do not have a blog, but I visit the Papertrey Designers blogs every day….so full of inspiration and unique ideas….Thank you for sharing your creative gifts ….

Happy Birthday and Happy Blogaversary! I love your blog. In fact, it is one of my very favorite blog along with Dawn Griffith’s blog. I check them everyday to see if you have anything new to tell us. I love your papercrafts, but I really got hooked because of all your other talents! I loved “A Day in the Life…”. It was great to see your world. I would love to be able to sing! Plus, I love all things German too! Well, have a GREAT DAY!
Happy Birthday! I don’t have a blog, but I enjoy visiting those of you that do. I enjoy altering dominoes, so I tuned right in to your necklace. Really neat! Thanks for sharing your creativity.

Happy Birthday and Happy Anniversary!! I don’t have a blog [I spend too much time reading other blogs to have my own
] but I read yours frequently. I love to see what you’ve made next–from jewelry to boxes to cards, you always have such beautiful items. Very inspiring.
Happy Birthday and Congrats on the blogaversary!! I don’t have a blog – maybe once I get out of school. I love visiting your site to see all the beautiful projects you come up with, and I’m a bit of a box fan – so those are my special favorite!
Hello. I discovered Papertrey Ink (and you)a couple months ago and love looking at the design team members blogs every night to see your new projects. After seeing the anniversary set I was sure wishing I had known about PTI sooner so I would have qualified! What a nice contest to have. I appreciate your sharing your ideas with others. And I love that your mom was the second post here!
I have a brand new blog and will add you once I get a blogroll going. Happy Birthday!
