First of all, I want to welcome everyone to the September 2010 Papertrey Ink Blog Hop! It is so exciting to see so many of you here!
One of the most fun things about this hobby is the people you meet, whether in person or online, and the things you learn from them. Now is your chance to show off any skills you might have learned from a fellow stamper, and perhaps even give them a little shout out to thank them for the inspiration they have provided. Create a project using one of your favorite learned skills and perhaps after a little blog hopping, we will ALL learn some new tips and tricks and continue to pass on the love of this hobby!
I have included a Mister Linky list below for you to add your link to your blog hop project. You have until 11:00pm EST tonight (September 25th) to add your link to this list. THREE random participants will be selected to win a FREE Papertrey Ink stamp set of their choice. They will be announced and highlighted here, on my blog, by midnight. We look forward to seeing all of your creations!
EDITED TO ADD THE WINNERS!
Sue Lelli created a stunning dimensional flower embellishment using tissue paper. I loved the color scheme she selected, so bright and vibrant!
Heather Jensen made a beautiful creation using this year's anniversary set, Round & Round. I just adore the way she incorporated the doily!
Rebecca Ednie used Enjoy the Ride and some beautiful pattern combinations to create this unique baby card. I simply swooned over the button & lace border she made!
Congratulations to all of the winners! Please be sure to email customer service within 30 days to claim your prize. You will need to include your name, shipping info and you selected FREE Papertrey Stamp set! Thank you to EVERYONE for participating! It was such a joy to see all of your creations, not to mention inspiring as well. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Looking forward to seeing all the inspiration.
So fun to be a part of this Blog Hop! Who doesn’t love Blog Hops? Awesome inspiration ladies!
This is my first time participating, too, and it was a blast putting my project together. Thanks for the inspiration!
I’m really looking forward to learning new skills :D.
I love your challenge this month! How true it is that we can make some great friends through this hobby (or obsession as my hubby calls it) that we share. It was fun to make a card for the hop and to toot my friend’s horn who inspired me. She is all the way on the other side of the country, but through blogging and email, the distance doesn’t seem so bad. Thanks for the great challenge. *Γ*
Thanks for the inspiring idea for a blog hop Nichole! This was my first hop but I have drooled over PTI since your inception! Keep up the great work!
I’m so glad I had my new order for this blog hop
Wow love all these inspirations. Great job everyone.
I don’t have a blog…but I’d like to say Thank you to all of PTI’s fabulous DT members. I have learned so much from you all. I love Dawn’s elegant style, Debbie’s coloring techniques, Mish’s fun attitude, Lisa Johnson’s fresh ideas for projects. I don’t want to leave anyone out because at one timer or the other I have learned from each one you. Thank you again for inspiring me to create.
So many learned techniques and so little time!
Can’t you feel the love! Thanks Nichole and PTI for a fun blog hop challenge!
I cant wait to see all the blogs this month! Thank you!
I’m playing along for the very first time. I hope it’s okay! I can’t wait to see what the others did when my daughter goes down for her nap!
Loved playing along this month. I can hardly wait to start visiting all the blogs!
I am happy to see quite a few first-timers on here. This is my first time participating as well and I’m super excited!
This is the first time joining in on the Hop! I’m looking forward to seeing everyone’s creations!

I didn’t get an idea for this hop until this morning as we were driving out of town. Fortunately I got back in time to get the card made and posted. Love these hops, and hate when I have to miss one!
I sure wished I’d remembered sooner that I had a perfect project to link up here and all I had to do was blog it! at least I hope I won’t be the last!

I am so excited to be a part of my first Blog Hop. I am even more excited to be inspired by everyone who has posted!
Such a great idea to make the Blog Hop an all day event! I surely needed the extra time and it allowed me to play along with the Hop for the first time in months!
YEA! My first Blog Hop. Thanks for all you do for us. Can’t wait to visit everyon’s sites.
squeaked in at the last second!
Congrats to Sue, Heather & Rebecca for winning a stamp set!!! What absolutely GORGEOUS projects they are!!!
Thanks for picking my number and card in the random drawing! I am SUPER EXCITED!
Great fun. What a great opportunity to share inspiration as well as praise those who inspire us, as you do all the time π
I made this card after my friend Deb Felts showed me how to do pleating with ribbon—so simple, but I’d never done it! I like how it turned out! Thanks Deb!
