Hello there 147

Hi! Today I'm joining along with the PTI May: Create Along With Us challenge which allows anyone to select something that a PTI team member has created during the release that inspired you, and create your own version. I was inspired by Heather's fun card show below:
Here's my interpretation:
I combined several stamp sets to create my card including PTI Gran's Garden, PTI Background Basics: Newsprint, PTI Turning a New Leaf, etc... 
For card sketch inspiration, I'm joining along with the FabFriday challenge:
I also have a 16" x 20" oil painting featuring a garden of peonies inspired by Bill Inman:

Ain't No Sunshine...Guest Designing 21

Mona Pendleton | Thursday, May 10, 2018 @ 4:00 PM | ,

Hi! Today I have the honor of guest designing with the talented design team at A Vintage Journey. The May challenge theme is all about Words and Music. If you'd like to join along, you are asked to that are inspired by a favourite song, or that incorporate musical lyrics, sheet music, or musical signs and symbols in their design.

I created a shabby style card featuring sheet music along with a stamped sentiment that reminds me of Bill Withers song: "Ain't no sunshine when she's gone":
For sketch inspiration, I'm joining along with the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge:
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Please be sure to visit the A Vintage Journey blog to see ALL the fantastic projects that the talented DT has created as well as a step by step tutorial that I share on how I created my project!
Be Sweet :)

Hi! Today I have a Mother's Day card to share that I created for my sweet MIL:
I used beautiful blossoms from the PTI Vintage Linens stamp set. I added a coating of glitter to the die cut pieces and stamped my own background using two different size blossoms:
I also have a 12" x 12" oil painting to share featuring white poppies and hydrangeas which was inspired by Nancy Medina:

Hi! Tina and I spent the weekend helping Angie relocate to San Diego. Angie is now in France for another U.S. Cycling team competition. Today I'm playing along with the PTI Make It Monday challenge where the theme is to "Mask a Sentiment".
I created a card featuring a masked sentiment from the PTI Floral Sketches stamp set with beautiful blossoms and foliage from the PTI Gran's Garden stamp set.
Up next is an 8" x 10" oil painting featuring a vase of roses:

Congratulations 22

Mona Pendleton | Wednesday, May 2, 2018 @ 1:15 AM | , ,

Hi there! Today I'm joining along with the PTI Make It Monday challenge where the challenge is to create a project featuring Ink Blending on Colored Cardstock. I made a card for sweet daughter Angie who will be graduating from college this week.
I randomly stamped, heat embossed then blended coordinating ink around the butterflies to create the background. For the focal point, I stamped then heat embossed the larger embossed butterfly from the What The Doodle: Mini Butterfly stamp set as well.
In case you missed my post (HERE), Angie is currently a member of the US Cycling team. Several weeks ago, she traveled to Hiroshima, Japan and placed second on the podium (far left):
This past week, Angie traveled to Sydney, Australia where she placed second ago:
Here's Angie defying gravity in Australia!
I'm joining along with the additional following challenges: for sketch inspiration, the Just Add Ink challenge:
 for color inspiration, the Color Throwdown color challenge:
Thanks so much for stopping by!
Be sweet ;)
