PTI May 2014 Blog Hop ~ NBUS #133

Happy Funday Every Body!

It's a nice long weekend here in the States. Monday is Memorial Day, a day for us to celebrate and appreciate the men and women who currently serve and have served our country in the military!

I had a great time yesterday with my crafty friends Kim and Harriet, making coin purses using the PTI dies (photo below). It wasn't until I woke up this morning that I remembered about the May PTI blog hop.

Here is this month's photo perspiration:

Fortunately, I had visited my girlfriend Joanne recently and part of my clearance-rack purchases included a two-pack of Washi tape. The design of one of the rolls just happened to be aqua and melon triangles. Oh, snap my peas!

So, I made this QACAS and graphic card:

I used the PTI sketched shapes die (NBUS) for the triangles and the sediment is from PTI's "Think Big Favorites #24." The little glass embellies are from Lynn.

I am also entering my card in Seize the Birthday (no toppings):

and in Addicted to Stamps and More where the theme is the ever-popular "Anthing Goes!" The prize is digis from Rick St. Dennis (zibbet).

Okay, short and sweet as you have hopping to do! I will leave you with a small collage of Harriet, me, and Kim having fun at my house making little felt coin purses. We spent so much time talking and laughing, mine isn't finished yet to show you. I hope you are having as much fun at your house!
