It's finally time to share my Papertrey Ink release projects with you! This month has been so much fun for me as it has been full of anniversary fun. Thank you so much for tuning in and playing along! First up is a card I created using the new Beautiful Butterflies stamp set.

My goodness! You've been creating up a storm! Love everything. My favorite would be the tea one as I love everything to do with tea (but I also love everything to do with butterflies, too).

Oh MY Melissa! I LOVE your sweet teapot card, and the tulip die that I never noticed so much before is probably hopping in my cart now! You have simply outdone yourself with these projects! That paint swatch tag, eeek! My local Loew's will wonder what happened to their swatch display, heeee :)!

Hi sweetie! Well, you've done it to me again. I couldn't resist the cuteness (as always) and I placed, yet another, PTI order for the hearts die-cut, the heart border die-cut, more felt, and a few other goodies I couldn't live without. Have a blessed day!

These are all wonderful. I just made one of those red polka dot teapots, but have yet to use it. I'm sure whatever I do won't be as fun as yours. You are amazing. Thanks ever so much.
