Welcome to the first day of February Anniversary Release festivities! Everyone at Papertrey Ink has been working tirelessly behind the scenes to bring you TEN days of fun contests & challenges, prizes, inspiration and SO much more! Let's start out the day today with a few sneak peeks of what's to come for new products this month!
Maile Belles has a stunning new floral set that is trendy, but illustrated in such a way that it will truly be timeless. There are options to quickly stamp a pre-assembled floral cluster, or there are even individual pieces you can use to create custom arrangements. And the font combination? To die for!!!
Melissa Bickford has a new monthly series coming that is kicking off with a little something for Easter projects. The large bold word included each month with complement the companion sentiments and image so you can create lots of different looks with a $5 set!
Melissa Bickford has also designed a beautiful new set dedicated to motherhood, however she has executed it perfectly so that it can be used for other types of recipients too! You will not want to miss the amazing possibilities this set holds!
Now that we have the sneak peeks taken care of, let me introduce you to the 2013 Papertrey Ink Design Team. I have asked each of them to share six of their favorite Papertrey projects with you, in honor of our sixth anniversary!
While there are no "new" introductions, I feel as though it is still important to take this opportunity to give each of them a shout out and commend them for their contributions to creativity, not only on behalf of Papertrey, but to the entire paper crafting industry and community.
Ashley says, "Periodically, the team checks in on one another to see how we are holding up with creating our projects and deadlines. Each month, I try to get ahead of the game, perhaps to be the person who lets the entire team know…"I'm all done" or "just 1 more project to go." But, every month I'm creating right into the wee hours of the night and just meeting those deadlines. I think it's so funny that I've tried each month since being on the team since November 2011, but have yet to achieve the goal of completing all of my assignments with plenty of time to spare. I'm really hoping this year, I will be able to be the person who finishes extra early. A girl can dream, right?! Here's to the crafters who also burn the midnight oil!"
Ashley is such a unique paper crafter, in that she takes the most unpredictable combinations of products, colors and embellishments, and turns them into a masterpiece! I love that every time I visit her blog, her projects lead me to jot down ideas to try out in my own crafting space. You know someone has true talent when they inspire you to go try something new yourself! Not only is Ashley an amazingly gifted artist, but she also has a heart of gold. She is a wonderful asset to the team as a wonderful contributor AND friend. I couldn't ask for a better representative of our company and I am so pleased that Ashley is continuing on with us for another year.

Betsy says, "Where has the year gone? I can't believe it's time for another Papertrey anniversary celebration…but what's really hard to believe is that I've been working with Papertrey since October 2008. That means this February will be my 54th release! When looking through past projects to choose my favorites for this post, it's funny how looking through them reminded me of what was going on in my life when I created them. My April release projects remind me of the day I set up a table in my living room to stamp because I was having a garage sale. My August projects make me think of the days we were re-siding our home and I would sneak in a few minutes of stamping in between painting! It was fun to look back and through the year and be reminded of those things, but I'm also excited to look ahead to all of the inspiring things Papertrey will be bringing us in the next year! I hope you're ready for a fun ride!"
"Betsy did again!" can often be heard out loud in my office as I prepare graphics for group posts each month. I have never seen a single artist repeatedly "hit it out of the park" like Betsy does. She puts so much thought, so much time & love, so much creativity into every single creation. She is the queen of taking an ordinary product and making it extraordinary. I love Betsy's upbeat personality and the ray of sunshine she brings to everyone through her blog posts and her interactions within the forum. She is a true gem and someone I am very proud to have on our team.

Cristina says, "I’m the rookie on the team, and I still remember vividly the day that an email from Nichole landed in my inbox, inviting me aboard. It was June 2012, and I was due with my second child the next month. The chance to be on the Papertrey team had been a dream of mine, so I didn’t want to turn it down, but ack! Could I handle it with a newborn in the house? I agonized over it for about 24 hours, then I finally emailed Nichole to explain my dilemma. She couldn’t have been more understanding and accommodating, and the rest of the team welcomed me with open arms. After my son was born, after the mass email to friends and family was sent, one of the first things I did was share the news with my PTI peeps. For years, I was such fans of all of them. Now I feel like they’ve become my friends. "
While Cristina has not been with us for long, she has made an everlasting footprint on the team and we can't imagine it without her! Her spectacular clean & simple designs are something that I personally enjoy seeing on a regular basis. She really inspires everyone to take just a simple image or two and create a true work of art that is quick and easy to create. Cristina proves that a project doesn't need much to be a masterpiece in of itself, and I love her for reminding us all of this. Her sweet disposition and her professionalism make her an all-star in my book and I greatly look forward to getting to know her even better during the next few months.

Danielle says, "I have been with Papertrey Ink for exactly 2 years now, since February 2011. Being on this team has really helped me grow as a designer and pushed me in creative ways I never thought possible! Each month, I am still so excited to see what's new. To me, Papertrey Ink really has driven the trends in the paper crafting industry – the trendy, elegant stamp designs are one of a kind. I have truly loved getting to know the girls on the team, between the phone calls with Dawn and emails with Melissa and Jessica and the other team members! Jessica and I are always reminding each other of the deadlines and helping each other out. The camaraderie of the team is amazing, and I can tell you that each one of the Papertrey Ink ladies is truly genuine. Well, it was extremely difficult to pick only six of my favorite projects from the past 2 years, and since I've already posted many of the mini albums and the larger projects as my favorites in the past, I decided to pick six of my favorite cards for this post. I hope they will inspire you to break out your stamps and dies and get creative!"
Danielle has an eclectic, shabby-chic style that is the envy of so many of us! Her color combinations, homemade embellishments, layers and just overall creative use of product is so incredibly inspiring! She truly has a knack for looking at things differently and making us believe in her vision at the same time, and I admire her greatly for that. Danielle's amazing personality and kindness are also important characteristics to note. Her presence within the team forum is like a rainbow on a cloudy day, full of color and energy. Her enthusiasm is definitely contagious and I am beyond thrilled to have her on board with us for another year!

Dawn says, "I have been with Papertrey now, since July of 2008! Goodness how the time flies….I can’t believe my five year anniversary is just around the corner! I can honestly say it’s been such a joy and I’m so grateful to be a part of this amazing team. There are certainly times behind the scenes when things don’t arrive when they should or something doesn’t go just exactly according to plan, but it’s so great to be able to share those moments with such a dear group of friends on the Design Team. These girls make me laugh, they inspire me and make me extremely grateful for this job. And I can’t fail to mention how graciously Nichole leads the team. I recently had a box full of goodies for an upcoming release that was MIA and showed up really late. Rather than be super stressed about it and in turn, pile that stress on me, Nichole just rolled with it as she’s so great to do. I appreciate that so much about her and I’m so grateful to her, Jane & Julie for all of the opportunities that they’ve afforded me in my position with Papertrey Ink."
When you think of Dawn, you think bright colors and vibrant creations. Her design style is all about color and the things that make her the most happy. I love that when a project, I can instantly tell whether or not it is Dawn's creation because it just exudes happiness! Not only are her paper crafting projects happy, but she herself is a positive person who is constantly smiling! She is always sharing words of encouragement for those that need it within the team and she is always one of the first to cheer when someone has good news to share. Dawn's talents, both as an artist and a friend, are a wonderful contribution to the team and we are so lucky to have her on board with us for another year!

Debbie says, "I'm always delighted every month to see what Nichole and other Papertrey Ink designers have come up, and I've had this privilege right from the beginning five years ago! When my Papertrey box arrives, it's pretty much like Christmas every month. Other than actually getting my box every month, my close-second-favorite time is always seeing what the other girls have come up with. The range of styles on the Papertrey team is incredible, from Maile's and Cristina's clean, strong simplicity, to Melissa's and Danielle's sweet, perfect shabbiness; from Betsy's and Jess's great color combos and rock-solid design to Ashley's and Erin's modern and totally on-trend use of materials; from Dawn's ability to make any style her own to Heather's magic with kraft and rusticity. Last, but never least, Nichole. . . I can honestly say that every month I look at her countdown pieces and think, "WOW! Why didn't I think of that?" I am inspired by each of them--truly–and I'm happy to continue be a small part of this team."
Debbie has been with us since the beginning and after working with someone for this long, you tend to run out of superlatives that can aptly describe them. Even though Debbie works with us as a "special agent" and contributes only a handful of projects to the release each month, her work continues to inspire all of us to brand new levels. Her skill with Copics always pushed me to try new things and continue to practice getting them to work the magic she seems to execute so effortlessly! Her warmth and kindness on a personal level is definitely something that is worth mentioning as well. She is always a wonderful person to work with on so many different levels, and I appreciate her and the time she dedicates to Papertrey each and every month!

Erin says, "For the second time during my PTI tenure (starting in February of 2010), I was pregnant this past year. In searching for a baby name, I ran across the name of Dawn's sister on her blog–Glory. I was also, at the time, lobbying hard to schedule a c-section on July 4th. (It just happens to be the best birthday one can have. I speak from personal experience, seeing as I'm a 4th of July baby too. You never have to work or go to school, there's always a party, you get fireworks. Seriously, it rocks.) I thought Gloria "Glory" Josephine would be a great name for a little girl born on July 4th. I'd have never thought of it if it wasn't for Dawn. Of course, I immediately told the team my thoughts. Gushing and baby talk soon followed. You know how us moms-to-be are…nothing is a hotter topic than baby this and baby that. The girls indulged me. And Dawn was super excited that there was going to be another Glory around. We all know how this goes, right? I had a baby boy on June 22! So much for our grand PTI baby plans. But this is an excellent example of how open, loving, and chatty the group of these talented ladies are. We work hard and we play hard. I'm so very honored to counted in their ranks."
Even with lots of little kiddos running her in circles at home, Erin impresses me with her ability to truly "do it all". Her designs are always like a breath of fresh air, using amazing combinations of products, both new and old, to amaze us and inspire us. Erin is a super fun person behind the scenes and often times provides team members with a good "chuckle" of the day, often times with cute stories about her little ones. Erin is an incredible person with many talents and I am truly looking forward to working with her for another year.

Heather says, "I have been with Papertrey Ink since the very beginning and I can't tell you enough how much it has been a blessing in my life. I couldn't have better people to work with at Papertrey and all of the design team girls are fabulous. Sometimes, working from home can be a little lonely and I think the design team girls keep everyone lifted up with supporting each other with projects, deadlines (ding dong!), and events going on in our everyday life from the little things to ones most epic. This past year I also especially loved getting to know some of the Minnesota Paperytrey Ink customers at stamping get togethers down near Minneapolis. There is nothing better than some good quality stamping and creating time with people who are just as obsessed over all of this as I am. The past 6 years have truly been a wonderful adventure and I look forward to many more in the future! Happy 6th Anniversary Papertrey Ink!"
Heather is another designer who has been with us since the beginning, nearly six years ago! Heather certainly has her trademarks, such as Kraft cardstock and white ink, but one of the things I love best about her is the passion she invests into her scrapbooking projects. She pours her heart into each layout, every mini book, making it something that will be a memorable keepsake for years to come. What a special gift for not only her family, but for us to enjoy and gain inspiration from as well! Heather is so laid back, it makes it easy to work with her, and I know the coming year will be just as amazing as the last six!

Jessica says, "So very thankful that I get to be a part of the Papertrey Ink team once again! December marked my 3rd anniversary with PTI… this will be my 39th release… wow. This year has been a fun one with the team as we've laughed together and encouraged each other. I especially love my monthly chats with Danielle as we keep each other updated on our projects and spur each other on. Papertrey products still have such an ability to inspire me and lots of that comes from Nichole and the rest of the team. I so LOVE being encouraged to try something new, give it a shot, do whatever feels like me… that's PTI to me 🙂 "
Jessica is another of our clean & simple gals, but what I love about her is the little dose of eclectic style she injects into her projects. Whether it be an interesting color scheme, or a unique embellishment, she always has just a touch of something that is so "Jessica"! Her personality is the much of the same, with little "Jessica" zingers thrown into a conversation, things will never be boring! With all of that aside, Jessica is a charitable, warm-hearted gal who always puts others ahead of herself. She inspires me both in creativity and moral compass and I count it as a huge blessing to get to work with her again during the coming year.

Maile says, "I'm so exited to be sharing in another Papertrey Ink anniversary celebration! PTI is celebrating 6 years of amazingness and I couldn't be more honored to have been apart of that since 2010. This last year has been a great one! There's nothing like getting to know and growing closer with a team of talented designers that all have a common love of stamps. A recent highlight that comes to mind is the kindheartedness of this team through our Christmas exchange. This was a first for us as a team. A gifting from one team member to another, of a box of thoughtful and well loved crafty goodies. My gift from Betsy was one of my favorites from the Christmas season. She packaged each piece gorgeously in her "Betsy" style. The presentation was the best part! I look forward to sharing another year with them as part of the team."
Maile may be soft spoken and somewhat shy, but her projects are always both brilliant & bold. When you look up "think outside the box" in the dictionary, there you will find Maile and her amazing artwork. She is well-known for turning images at interesting angles, creating amazing arrangements from just a few stamps and ink. I admire Maile for her fierce love of her family and her son. She is an amazing example of someone who has conquered balance in her work and at home and I strive to learn from her as we work alongside each other for another year.

Melissa says, "I have been with Papertrey Ink for about 5 1/2 years. I can't believe it's been that long! You see, each month as the new stamp sets and products arrive, I feel like I've been given the opportunity to design for Papertrey Ink all over again. I can't begin to tell you how much joy and inspiration I have experienced while working here. I love it that the magic of creating has not faded and seems to begin again with each new release. This year I have had plenty of good laughs at myself while taking the plunge into making videos and tutorials. Holy cow! I've even been in tears a time or two. I am one who loves blending into the background. I am so happy and comfortable there. But, growth and change are always good and I took on the challenge of tutorials to push myself out of my comfort zone. If only we could have an "MIM Bloopers", I'd have plenty of material to provide. My favorite moments are those though when after I have finished my recording, that I find my little girl sitting in my chair at my craft table, the video camera positioned to record the making of her latest and greatest creation, hearing her repeat phrases and explain her process. It warms my heart, makes me laugh, and creates an awesome memory."
Melissa has a wonderful soul, from the top of her head to the tips of her toes, her warmth exudes into every aspect of what she does. Her words, her projects, her actions. They are all full of sunshine and sprinkles of glitter, making the world a more beautiful place. She is an amazing person with so much talent, I am often left speechless after seeing her designs, dissecting every precious detail. Melissa has a strong positive presence within the team and it just wouldn't be the same without her. I am so incredibly happy that she is joining us for another year so we can all learn more from her together.

So excited! Love the projects shown today. It really shows the range of style that the PTI DT has. Cannot wait for more.
As we are in the process of packing and all my stuff is packed I cannot make a card but certainly can tell all the very creative ladies how much I have enjoyed seeing their work and cannot wait to see what they come up with this year. Cheers.
Happy Anniversary Papertrey Ink!! I’m excited to see what the next few days will hold in terms of ideas, products and fun! I can say that I am consistently blown away by the awesome design team and their ideas and creativity. Thank you for your inspiration!
Welcome back to the most amazing team in the business! Can’t wait to see what you bring to the next year of Papertrey Ink!
Love all your projects ladies! Thx a lot for all the inspiration.- Irma
So very excited to see what is coming this month and happy to see the design team all back! I get more inspiration from their posts than anywhere else on the web! I can honestly say I use at LEAST one PTI product every single time I sit down to craft -cant wait to see what’s in store this year! I think Betsy and Danielle are the two team members whose style I try to emulate most, but all the designers are fantastic and every month I am impressed by their abilities. I think what amazes me most is that their projects never look alike – even though they are using the same products. Amazing creativity!
Absolutely love all the design team members and the inspiration they provide. I constantly look to their projects for jump start ideas. Keep up the good work ladies!
I have been looking forward to the start of Papertrey’s sixth anniversary celebration for months already. Congratulations! You continue to be the best in the business. I am a huge fan of Melissa’s stamp sets so am very pleased to see she will have another year-long series. As for the design team – inspirational, dedicated, amazing, hilarious, touching. Not only do they unselfishly share their amazing talent, but they bring a smile to my face so often. Thank you to each and everyone of you. Looking forward to the rest of the reveals and another great year with PTI.
Happy Anniversary Papertrey Ink!!! Thank you so much designers for all of your beautiful cards and inspiration! I love Papertrey products and what you gals do with them. I am especially partial to the CAS girls. 🙂
Mwah!
I’m glad to see all of the designers return–such a talented and well-rounded group! I’m always especialy inspired by Betsy and her creative take on each product.
The day we’ve all been waiting for has finally arrived!!! I would like to thank Nicole, Jane and Julie for all they do to make PTI possible. A special thank you to the amazing design team members who share their talents with us and inspire us with their amazing projects. I am excited to see more in the next 10 days. Happy Anniversary PTI. May you enjoy many many more.
An amazing prize. Glad the DT hasn’t changed – love the awesome inspiration y’all bring. I know it won’t be difficult to wish list $300 as all your products are fabulous.
A simple THANK YOU doesn’t say enough to all the members of the design team. So many ideas, designs and never ending talent that is shared many times over. I have gotten so much from each and every release and the Monday video’s now if I just had a little more $$$. I love release time. A super huge THANK YOU to the PTI design team for every smile you make.
Happy Anniversary Papertrey Ink!! And thank you design team members for endlessly inspiring me ALL year!!
Happy Anniversary! And a big thank you for all the inspiration I get each month from this team of very talented women!!! Just when I think a stamp set or die doesn’t have a place in my home, one of the talented ladies shows me just how much it does belong with a project that blows me away with its awesomeness. I can’t wait to see what 2013 and this 6th year begins. I’ve been here since almost the beginning & look forward to many more wonderful releases & anniversaries.
Happy Anniversary Papertrey Ink!!! Thank you so much designers for all of your beautiful cards and inspiration!
I’m so excited that the entire design team stayed on for another year. I was hoping that would be the case as I love all of their inspiration and innovative ideas. Thanks so much to all of you!
WOW! I just looked at each members blog and AMAZING, is all I can say! It’s neat to see how each artist has grown and changed over the years. I tend to make very simple cards and so I am really inspired by the frilly, full of embellishment cards like Melissa’s and Betsy’s. I know each and everyone of you put alot of hardwork into being on the team and I just want you to know that I appreciate it and love seeing your new art each month!
Thanks!
Jen
Wow, that’s AWESOME!!!
Izzy 6 years old
Really, I can’t express what a fun hobby this has turned into for both of us. We are blessed to have such wonderful inspiration. I can’t begin to count how many projects have been swiped for her school ideas and class party projects.
Terri E.
Thank you for making morning time fun for a week every month! I love seeing the stamps used in various ways before I buy.
I’m so excited that none of the designers are leaving. What a great team and I appreciate all the inspiration.
Wow! Congratulations on 6 years of fabulousness!!! This blog with this DT and you Nichole are one of my favourite places to visit on the web!!!
What I love most about the Design Team is the variety of styles that is represented. Their creativity bursts out in such unique ways that it makes me want to start stamping!
Happy Anniversary, PTI (and the DT, too)!! Thanks for all you do, all you come up with, and the inspiration you freely give out each and every month! Here’s to many, many more Countdowns & Anniversaries in the future!
Congrats PTI on 6 years anniversary!! Looking forward to each DT!! Thank you so much for the inspiration!! 🙂

Happy 6th Anniversary, PTI! What a long way you have come! You are definitely my favorite crafting company in the industry – never mind, stamping company.
I am so glad that the whole design team is staying on for another year! Whew! It’s the best in the business. Thank you so much for providing such amazing inspiration to us month after month! I love browsing through your blogs for project inspiration.
Nicole, Jane, Julie, & PTI Crew – Thank you as well for all you do behind the scenes too.

Happy Anniversary Papertrey Ink and I´m so glad to see my favorites designer are still on the team. can`t wait to se what this amazing team of designer comes up with
Happy Anniversary Papertrey and thank you ever so much- design team for your monthly infusion of crafty goodness!
I have always loved the PTI design team. I appreciate the different styles, and I continue to swoon at Melissa Phillips’ vintage style. Thanks for all of the creative energy and inspiration.
Many thanks for six wonderful years of great ideas and products. You all work so hard to let us see your amazing ideas and new products. Cannot thank you enough. Keep up the great work and many more happy years to come!
Happy Anniversary Papertrey! Thank you for bringing so much joy and inspiration to my craft table. I am so grateful that I discovered PTI. You brought me back to stamping. I appreciate the efforts of everyone who makes this all possible. Thank you Nichole, design team, and the behind-the-scenes crew for your talent, dedication, enthusiasm, and so much more. The ripples of joy that spread out from all you do have touched my life in so many special ways. Thank you!
When I look at my Pinterest boards and other sources of inspiration, it’s no accident that nearly 100% of the photos are of projects using Papertrey product, and a huge percentage of those are from the design team. I can count on you ladies for great ideas! Thanks so much for helping me keep my mojo going!
I stumbled across PTI when I was searching for buttons and you have been my go to site for buying ever since. The creative team is amazing and I look forward to the monthly releases. I am always delighted and inspired by you all…THANK YOU!!!
Happy Anniversary! Thank you all for your ideas and inspiration each month. Can’t wait to see more.
I stumbled on PTI exactly one year ago and was immediately drawn into all of the anniversary and release fun. I have loved every minute of my new addiction and thank all of the DT for helping me get there! My wallet is very thankful that I wasn’t around for the first few years, but I love looking back at how mych everything has grown! Thank you all so much!
Looking forward to seeing what’s in store for Papertrey this year. Congrats on a successful six years, and here’s to many more!
Couldn’t be happier that the entire team will stay in place. PTI has the best design team out there! Thank you all for your monthly inspiration!
Happy Anniversary! I just discovered your website this past year and have been having fun looking at all the Make it Monday videos. I’ve gotten so much inspiration from those as well as all the great card ideas posted each month with the new stamp and die releases. What a great design team! I’m so glad to have discovered Papertrey Ink!
Happy 6th Anniversary Papertreyink! Wishing you many more wonderful years!
In April, it will be three years since I was introduced to Papertreyink by a friend, just a couple of months after I lost my job. I have enjoyed learning how to make so many great cards! Thank you! 🙂
PTI has the best design team. I visit many of their blogs on a daily basis, and find so much inspiration. Such a talented group of ladies! I love PTI, and look forward to many more years of inspiration.
Happy Anniversary!! You girls are SO inspiring! I just love to come back time after time, month after month to see what kind of trouble I can get myself into! Keep up the good work!! Thanks for all you do!!
I am most inspired by Melissa, Debbie and Betsy. I always feel I’ve learned something seeing their projects and I’ve pinned many of their creations. Thanks for the inspiration not just these three but all the girls whose blogs I follow rather religiously!
Looking forward to the upcoming anniversary festivities! I always find the DT to be very inspiring. They are a very creative and talented bunch of women.
Papertrey Ink’s Design Team has provided me so much inspiration and direction in my card making. Even though I don’t always participate, the weekly MIM videos and monthly Blog Hops have really pushed me to try things I would never have on my own. Thanks to each member for all of the amazing projects – you really know how to bring paper, stamps and inks to life!!
WOW! What an incredible day of inspiration! You have the most AMAZING design team! Always LOVE all their work! Thanks!!!
A special thank you to Dawn. I emailed her a question about the sandwich formula she used for Papertrey Ink’s dies in the Tim Holtz die cutter. She quickly answered my question and was very sweet. Thank you!
Thank you to everyone for the wonderful inspiration. You know sometimes when you see a stamp set and can’t quite imagine how you would use it. But then you see the wonderful and creative things that people do with it and think wow I have to have that set. That is what is so great about your design team.
Wow!!! Chance to win $300 worth of PTI!! I believe I would absolutely swoon!! Thanks for the chance to win!
I am so happy to see all if the amazing design team members returning…I am inspired endlessly by each one! Thank you for sharing your talent and creativity with us and I am excited to see what the new year brings!
I look forward to clicking on the blog links for the PTI design team to see the ENORMOUS amount of creativity they have to offer. I must admit, Nichole, I would not purchase as much PTI as I do if I was not so inspired by the team you have assembled. I especially love Christina’s contributions as well as Maile’s beautiful simplicity, but find something to love from each and every designer. Congratulations to everyone!!
Thank you to all the design team members! Your work is truly amazing!!
Thank you for all of the inspirations and encourgments you guys give each month. Many times ya’ll help me see things in new ways or even dare to try something out of my comfort zone.
February is just the best month – I always look forward to seeing the awesomeness that awaits! Thanks DT/Designers/Owners for all your hard work!
thank you so much for giving me an opportunity to win even though I don’t have a blog or know how to post a pic. I loved everyones fav’s and am excited about your sneak peeks!
The DT has given me so much inspiration. So many times one of them makes a card or project that just makes my jaw drop. Thanks to you all for your hours of hard work, creativity and generosity of spirit. It gives me a little spot of joy every month!
All the Papertrey designers are simply amazing and each month I look forward to seeing all the new products and how each designer puts her spin on them!! Thank you PTI for all you do for the craft world!
So glad you are keeping all your current design team–their work has inspired me more than I can say. Especially Debbie Olson’s–her style just “clicks” with me!
I am relatively new to card making and this blog. But I love seeing everything that all the girls make. So many interesting ideas and collections!
Congrats PTI!!!! Thanks to the Design Team for all the projects they make each month, you guys rock!!
What a fun contest! Thank you DT for all the wonderful, inspiring projects you create each month! I love looking at them all!
Wow, what an amazing prize, Nichole! Thanks so much for the chance to win!
And what an amazing team you have here at PTI– in my opinion, it is the best DT around! I am always inspired to add more things to my cart each month, after seeing what they create! They are worth their weight in gold!
I love all the inspirations that this design team gives each month!!! Just when you think they really can’t get any better, there they go again and out do themselves. I love PTI!!!!
I just love the different spin each designer takes on the PTI projects. I do like the bright happy style of Dawn, but most of all I like the inspiration I get from looking at the various projects. Happy Anniversary!
I am so excited to see that all of the Design Team members are staying with PTI for another year! One bright spot in my month comes from the 10th to the 15th eyeing all the DT’s incredible projects! Then, there’s the MIM’s – love those too! THANKS!!
So excited for another PTI anniversary! I love each time we are able to get to know the design team a little more and am so glad they’re all back again!
love feeling like I know these creative ladies, always look forward to their posts
I have gotten so much inspiration from your blog and the Papertrey design team! I look forward to each new release and watch every single video! Thank you!
What an exciting day! A massive thank you not only to the amazing DT but also to everyone behind the scenes too. A whole 10 days of incredible inspiration – Happy Anniversary!
I am so glad I found PTI…..I truly don’t know where my stamping hobby would be today! Thank you PTI for the years of creativity that has brought me to buy so many beautiful things!
It is always fun to be (re)introduced to the design team! I love how each have their own unique style. Congrats on your sixth anniversary PTI!
Happy Anniversary, PTI!!! Thank you for so many years of inspiration and amazing project ideas! From sheer elegance to shabby chic to bold or CAS, you can find it here! You are all awesome! Thanks for the chance to win!
Oh my gosh…thank you isn’t enough! Can’t wait to put together my wish list! So many great projects…looking forward to another exciting year of PTI!
It is because of all the WONDERFUL inspiration from the Design Team, that I got totally hooked on Papertrey stamps and dies! THANK YOU ALL!
I think I discovered PTI in 2009, about a year after getting into stamping. Every month I wait (im)patiently for the release samples. Always inspiring! When I need a card for a specific event, PTI is always where I start searching, and I never fail to find a great idea! The highlight so far was the Stamping event 2 years ago in Cincinatti – where I went by myself and couldn’t have found a more gracious group of gals to stamp and hang out with. It was fabulous to meet Nichole and all the design team who were able to attend. I hope there will be another one of these soon!
Congrats, PTI, on 6 FABULOUS, INSPIRING Years!
The PTI design team never ceases to amaze me with the creativity, beauty, and novelty of their projects and ideas. Thank you for your endless inspiration!
I continue to be amazed every single month at all the fabulous projects the DT creates! Thank you for sharing all of your inspiration and goodies!!
I honestly count down the days between the 16th of the month until the 5th of the next. I love love love blog hopping each month to see what the AMAZING design team has created. Such talented ladies
Congrats on 6 wonderful years. So glad I stumbled upon PTI 4 years ago. Love all the inspiration from the amazing DT. Always something new to learn. Thank You!
Thank you to the Design Team and Nichole for another amazing year of inspiration, with a beautiful range of styles and ideas. It was fun to read everyone’s comments and memories about the experience.
Happy 6th. Anniversary to you Papertrey Ink! It is such a joy to see all the wonderful and inspiring work that your design team shares each month. I love the diversity in each team members style. Your blog is always my first stop for inspiration and I hope we get to share many more anniversary celebrations with you.
Oh my gosh, I love the PI designers. Seriously, you all give such great inspiration and create such works of art! In fact, my dream is to one day be a PI designer:) A girl can wish can’t she….. Thanks so much for the beauty and inspiration you bring to my papercrafting world!
Happy Anniversary, PTI! Can’t wait to see what is in store for us this year. Maybe some more sets geared to celebrating and encouraging children and teens? Love all of you on the design team. Your projects are really the best of the best.
Thanks for all the inspiration ladies! I love seeing all the different interpretations of the same products! Keep those videos coming. They’re my favorite!

Fabulous DT! 😀
HAPPY 6th ANNIVERSARY PTI!
I still remember the first time I came across Nicole’s blog. I was completely blown away and I became an instant PTI addict!
I am so thankful that PTI has such an amazing, creative design team that pushes each stamp set outside the box. They each have such a unique style that provides so much inspiration – every month, their creativity makes each set a “MUST HAVE”!
Whenever I’m having crafting withdrawls, I know I can count on the blogs of PTI’s design team to satisfy me until the next set of release festivities starts.
Keep up the great work!
Oh my, how do you begin to thank those responsible you filling life with boundless joy? From Nichole to every and all designers on this precious team, I say, “thank you”. You give us all pieces of brilliance that are treasured! Ladies, sometimes the most difficult part of choosing my style for a challenge is choosing between all of YOUR presentations! You’re my fav’s in the stamping world! Love, love love you all!
A “thank you” hardly seem enough for the incredible Design Team. They are so talented and have so many great ideas to share. I have tried many of their ideas and wish I knew how to post them, but I’m so computer illiterate! So I’ll continue to send comments and hope I win someday. Thank you, Thank you for your wonderful inspiration and great company. I love PTI!!!!!
I have never seen a card I haven’t liked from the Design Team. I love how there is always something for everyone, in every kind of style. And they never disappoint, month after month. Thank you for all the beautiful inspiration over the years!
Happy 6th Anniversary Papertrey! To Nicole and the design team, you each have so much talent. Thank you for taking the time each month to share with us! You inspire me so much!
So happy the design team is all back!! Besides their lovely creations, I live how helpful they are on the forum. They are so willing to answer any questions about their process and set up, and just to leave kind comments. It’s super fun and appreciated !!!
Congratulations on the anniversary …. And the prize?!?!?! Wowza!!!
I found PTI right before your first anniversary party and have been inspired by the great designers ever since! Thanks ladies!
The design team projects are all awesome. Thank you all for the inspiration!!
Happy anniversary PTI! I discovered Papertrey Ink stamps about the time Melis came on board as a DT member. I have to confess that when I look ak different stamp companies products my first question is “does PTI carry a stamp like this? or Oh, PTI does this better”. I love all my PTI products and the monthly release inspiration is invaluable. Thanks DT for each awesome month,year and anniversary! Here’s to looking forward to another year!
Thanks to the entire design team for this past year! I loved seeing their projects every month. Looking forward to another great year!
Every month I’m looking forward to the 5th. That is the day i’m making a new wish list. Love your products. And I must admit that i order to much after seeing all the beautifull cards made by you girls. They make such beautifull cards that the stamps they have used are on my wishlist. Only by seeing those gorgeous cards. There is a style for everybody. I prefer the CAS style. But love watching at the other girls cards.
Thank you for another wonderful year of inspiration! I always look forward to seeing what the Design Team comes up with every month. Keep up the great work : D.
I just love the whole design team…even the projects that aren’t necessarily my “style” inspire me in some way. And I’ve tried so many new creative ideas because of the projects they show us each month. Thanks so much girls!
This is by far my favorite little guilty pleasure each month. I think PTI and the entire design team are top notch. Thank you to each design team member who inspires me on a somewhat daily basis. You never cease to amaze me!
Happy Anniversary PTI! All of the DT projects are dreamy and the contest itself is dreamy. It should be fun to play along!
Happy Anniversary PTI! The DT is always inspiring and is a great mix of styles and creativity. Excited to see what the new year holds!
The PTI DT is the best! Their creativity is inspiring, and every month they come up with so many amazing ideas. So happy to see them all returning!
The PTI Design Team is the best in the business. Every month the girls create awe-inspiring projects. And I appreciate that the team has all the styles covered: clean and simple, vintage, rustic, etc. Can’t wait to see what all is in store this month. Thank you and Happy Anniversary

I love each one of the Papertrey design team members and they have all inspired me to make more cards and think outside my comfort zone. My particular favorites are the cards that use the stamps and dies in unique ways as well as the simple and clean cards that are sometimes just one layer! Congratulatoins on 6 fabulous years!
oh wow so much inspiration on this post alone!!! Thank you ladies for always inspiring, creating such amazing projects, and even taking the time to hang out in the forum! You are all equally amazing and I am a HUGE fan!!! Thanks so much!
The Design Team releases are my favorite. They are ALL inspiring. I often think – Wow, I would have never thought of using that stamp that way. The great variety of women and unique talents just makes it all the more fun to see what they come up with each month. Kudos to Nicole, Julie and Jane as well for their vision. PTI is definitely a trend setter in the industry.
I really do want to thank the design team. Their projects are so inspiring and help me by showing such beautiful projects. Look forward to seeing everything they post.

Happy Anniversary, PaperTrey Ink !! We discovered your products during your first year, the second release. And we have been loyal customers ever since. Keep up the good work :}
Goodness, where to begin. PTI is my most favorite and most frequently visited site. The stamps and dies are such high quality,and the DT inspiration is without comparison in the industry. My limited budget always goes to adding your products to my stash/supply. My wish list always exceeds my budget. Love that your products cross over to scrapbooking and really appreciate any and all ideas and inspiration. Huge thanks and look forward to many more months of great products and fantastic inspiration.
Thanks DT for all your wonderful projects. Your inspiration is amazing.
Love the new bunny stamp 🙂

I am so excited to see what the Annivesary festivities are this year, PTI has become my favorite paper crafting company and I just love how the DT supplies us with endless amounts of creativity and inspiration. Here’s to another great year to Papertrey!
I just love the PTI DT! They are so very creative! There are some who design cards that are ‘me’ exactly, but even though other’s may not be my ‘style,’ the DT is so versatile and talented that I always see something inspiring in their work. I look forward to DT posts throughout the month- you all bring us sunshine in an email!

I’m a lazy bloger but a happy and hard working cardmaker.
I love, love to check evry month the release party, I make huge wish list, and a few times per year I send my big order. And then I’m waiting happy to get my products. A few days I not availble, I’m just playing with my new stamps, and dies.
I love to check every single PTI projects, to get inspiration, to just see all those amazing projects.
Thank you for the fun, for the very good products and for the inspiration.
So happy to start of the next 10 days! Love all of the products, inspiration, and techniques PTI shares with us! Congratulations on 6 years!
I am so excited to have found Papertrey Ink! I have been brainstorming ideas for a wedding shower. It is a garden theme. My co-worker showed me your website and pointed out the “Garden Variety” project by Jessica Witty! I love the mint chocolate cake baked in seedling cups! Adorable and ah….so clever!! I love so many of the projects but this one by far is my favorite!
Your anniversary falls on the same day as my wedding anniversary (although we’ve got a few years on you)
Can’t wait to play based on some of the designers favorites – such an inspiring bunch of ladies
Lovely tribute and team! You have a great source of talent~in card making and in attitude! I love your family atmosphere here~
This is my favorite time of month . . . a huge thanks to the Design Team and to Nichole as well for providing us with so much inspiration! Happy 6th Anniversary PTI–can’t wait to see what the next year will bring!
Chris L.
Congrats ladies, such a talented crew, you inspire us all.
I love all the designs. Ladies you are amazing, keep the inspiration coming. Congratulations on your anniversary.
Every month I look forward to the 10th, so I can see all of the wonderful projects the design team has put together. They are so inspiring and make me want craft and try something new. Thank You Nichole and the PTI design team for inspiring me!!
thanks for a amazing year of fun projects
Congratulations and thank you to the Design Team! I love the variety of styles represented and am so inspired by you every month!
Happy Anniversary Papertrey Ink! Thank you all designers for the fabulous job you have been doing over the years. I love PTI products. Thanks for the chance to win.
The PTI Design Team is such an inspiration to me in my paper crafting. The Make it Monday series has taught me so many new techniques. The samples shared during each release always make me want to buy a set I hadn’t intended to buy. And Erin and Betsy always have something creative and fun to share. Thank you!
Happy Anniversary PTI! And, thank you Design Team ladies….you all are amazingly talented. I look forward to each month’s release and the wide array of inspiration I have to work with. It never fails each month there is at least one stamp set I think I can live without and after I see all the projects, those sets turn into must haves. You always show me different ways to look at the sets – thus expanding each set for me. I am looking forward to many more years of new PTI designs and lots and lots of inspiration from you fabulous ladies!!
I love the whimsical, feminine, layered style of several of the DT ladies. I often say that Melissa Phillips could sell me anything! LOL. The nice thing about the DT is that no two projects are alike and they are ALWAYS inspirational. Sometimes I’ll see a completed project and think, “huh, I never would have thought to use that that way.” 🙂 Thanks for making this such a fun place to spend my time. Happy 6th Anniversary PTI!!
Congratulations on hitting 6 years!!! You have the most fabulous products and your design team is the best one in my opinion!!! They always amaze me with their beautiful creations and get my mojo working!!! Thanks girls and keep up the great work!!!
I am taking part in you Anniversary celebration for the first time. I have learned so much about color, design, techniques and stamping from you all. I appreciate each and everyone for your inspirations and teachings. I also include all those who contribute to your Make It Mondays and Blog Hops. I get inspired by what you all share also. This is my go to place. Thank you
Happy Anniversary! And thank you to the amazing PTI Design Team. They truly are gems, each and every one. Their creative talent is tremendous, the inspiration is endless, and best of all the diversity of style keeps things interesting. PTI you are SO lucky to have these ladies on your team.
Happy Anniversary! I love the sneak peeks each month, and look forward to see what coming up.
A BIG thank you to all design team members for sharing their amazing projects with us. You rock!
Happy Anniversary PTI.
I have to say that PTI’s DT is my absolute favorite! Thank You for all the inspiration! There is something for EVERYONE!!!! Nichole never stops giving us inspiration!!!
The design team is amazing.
They use stamps, dies and colors in so different and creative ways.
Each month you deliver a world ful of inspiration.
Thank you for that.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you for all the inspiration. I am loving looking at the favorites. I feel energized to play with all my PTI goodies.
Happy Anniversary, Papertrey Ink! Thanks for all the inspiration and great projects, love the variety!
The PTI DT never ceases to inspire the heck outta me… No other DT can compare!! With the likes of Betsy, Debbie, and Nichole, not to mention the rest of the DT, the creativity showcased here is unsurpassed. It’s no surprise that my PTI Inspiration pinboard has more pins than all of my other companies’ pinboards combined!! Thank you for all of your hard work to keep us inspired and crafty!!
So, so happy to have the entire DT back again. Their styles are all so different…I look forward to each release to see what they all come up with and what I can copy and tweak to make my own! I get so much inspiration from you, Nichole, and the rest of the team.
I also love your products…the dies and stamp sets that layer and go together are so wonderful…and your inks are the best out there. Looking forward to when get them back in stock.
Thank you for all the great releases and products!
Thank all design members!!!! Every month I am so inspired with all the creativity. It helps me to challenge myself. Also sad that I can’t have it all. Haha
Love the inspiration that the entire DT provides. I especially love the scrapbooking pages from Heather, and I am in love with Maile Belles’ style – clean and simple, I find myself drawn to her projects all the time. Keep up the great work!
My gosh, where to start! Papertrey ink is my favorite place to go for inspiration. I have my ‘favorite’ team members and I look forward to seeing what they create. I am always inspired. Thank you!
Oh, what a great challenge! I enjoyed reading through this post, and seeing what a great friendship there is between all the team members. I am so thankful for everything I’ve learned from the PTI team, and look forward to their creations every month. Happy Anniversary!
So happy all of my ‘enablers’ are coming back this year 😉
It truly is hard to pick any one designer out of this delightful crowd. While I may have one or two I check out first, I am honestly drawn to different aspects of each of the designers and am so impressed each month. Sometimes I think I should just put a cushion under my chin to catch the jaw drops come release time!!
Nicole I really have to say that between the 12 of you, PTI truly has the best sales force you could ask for and I wish you a wonderful anniversary and a great year to come!
Each and every month I check Papertrey Ink to not only see what new goodies I have to have, but also to see what the fantastic Design Team has come up with. I don’t know how many times I’ve told myself I don’t need anything, but after seeing what the girls have created, wouldn’t you know it I’m purchasing again! Thank you for the wonderful enabling, Ladies of Papertrey Ink!!
Oh my goodness, thank-you, thank-you, thank-you!! I love each & everyone of you and even have you all bookmarked on my favorites and often scan the list for inspiration before I start crafting. It’s great news to be able to look forward to another year of beautiful projects.
I really loved reading about each and every designer. Some of the gals I have known a it about from other forums, but it was nice to hear from the gals that are new to me also. I am fairly new to PTI, and after lurking for awhile, now have joined the forum, and the challenges. Love the MIM tutorials, I usually can hardly wait for the video to be over before I start creating, and I’m ALWAYS inspired by them, and the release projects also. Keep up the good work!!
Happy Anniversary Papertrey Ink!
Thank you so much to the entire design team for all the lovely inspiration they provide us month after month. Last year I started my blogging life with this very same Anniversary contest, glad to be joining in again!
I can’t believe it’s the SIXTH anniversary of PTI. It seems like just yesterday we were celebrating the first! As always, the inspiration from the design team members is endless! I look forward to seeing the magic happen in the months/years to come!
Happy 6th Anniversary! Thanks for the years of inspiration and I look forward to many more! Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!!!!
In my humble opinion this is one of the BEST design teams out there! Every month when I see their inspiration projects it makes me want EVERYTHING. I have a wishlist that is literally a MILE long! There is also something for everyone from CAS to shabby chic to lots of layers to graphic…every member brings something different and unique to the table. They are all so amazing! So kudos DT and thanks for all your Wonderful Amazing Incredible projects and inspiration! Keep up the good work! 🙂
Lauren
I love all the inspiration that comes from all these talented designers, but I have to say the 2 that will typically stop me in my tracks are Melissa and Betsy. I can’t count how many times I’ll view their creations and think, “Wow! How on earth did they ever think of that? That was BRILLIANT!” They are a great source of inspiration to me, and I’m always in awe of what they can bring to the (crafting) table. Great work and best wishes for the new year, PTI!!
Thank you for making the days before the release every month so much fun. I love waking up and seeing what is new for those days… best time of the month besides release day.
Happy Anniversary!! I just love your stamps and the inspiration from the design team! Looking forward to seeing what’s to come in the next release!!
I am always in awe of the projects I come across from the gals at PTI. The styles are so varied, from CAS to shabby chic, so I always have inspiration no matter what my mood. Of course I spend more time shopping for supplies while browsing the projects than actually getting one done myself! lol Thank you PTI team for the richness you add to the paper-crafting world. Here’s to many more years of PTI goodness to come!
Happy 6th Anniversary!
Thank you, for all the wonderful inspiration each and everyone of you provide!
I love PTI!
This is my MOST FAVORITE time of the year!! I love all the excitement of the anniversary parties and I am so very excited that all the members of the design team are returning this year! Your work constantly inspires me and I can’t wait to see what you have in store for us this year!!
A simple thank you doesn’t seem sufficient to let you all know how much I appreciate the inspiration, color and fun you provide every month. I look forward to the sneak peeks every month and wonder “what are those girls going to come up with this time?” – and I have never been disappointed! When the countdown begins, I have been known to have my jaw drop open in front of my computer screen LOL. You all are just wonderful and I do thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the inspiration, creativity and sharing you do throughout the month with MIM’s and posts in the forum. I’m looking forward to the coming year!
OMG, I was so VERY excited when I first read that all the Design Team members were staying on at PTI. We’ve become so “attached” to them from the Forum and their blogs. Their creations, including Nichole’s, are bar none superior and tops in the industry and so inspirational to everyone’s style. PTI leads the trends with their new stamps, dies and colors. Let me just add, I love PTI. Just wish I had more $ to spend on each release. Keep up the great work! Oh, and Nichole, you & your DT write the best blog posts also ~ so enjoyable to read. Looking forward to another fabulous year ahead!
I simply love and appreciate all of the inspiration these wonderful gals share! Thanks
PTI has the most amazing DT and the greatest products! I love all the work and inspiration provided by Nichole and the DT! The words “thank you” just don’t cover how grateful I am for all of the work that you share with us!
Happy Anniversary, you just keep getting better and better. Thanks for all the inspiration.
Thank you so much for all the inspiration this year. Even when I couldn’t physically create I still enjoyed each and every design team project! What a fabulous team! Looking forward to another fabulous year!
Thank you to all wonderful designers for all the inspiration provided the past years, I am a big fan since my first stamp set “in bloom”, and never stop loving PTI product since then. Oh ya, by the way, Betsy’s blog was the first blog I bumped into and that leads to my blogging journey, before that, I don’t even know what blogging is.
I love that you have awesome challenge like make it monday, that is my favorite challenge and I learn a lot there, thanks!
Congratulations on your anniversary and I know I will be loving every new release here!!!!!!
Happy Anniversary PTI! I’m so glad the the entire Design Dream Team is intact. Looking forward to another year of fun and inspiration from these talented ladies.
I love the fabulous projects. I am looking forward to seeing the full sets.
So many different ways to use stamps and dies – and all are beautiful! Though I´m more of a CAS stamper and cardmaker, I do enjoy all the inspiration and all those wonderful ideas to use my stamps.
Every time I look at all those ideas with old and new products, I enjoy my cardmaking even more.
Thank you!
Greetings, Christine
I have loved all of the inspiration from the design team since I started following the blog about a year ago! Congrats on six years and to many, many more years of awesome inspiration!!
Such talent! Inspired everyday by these gals!
The PTI Design Team is awesome! You all provide so much inspiration to me. From color to design to embellishments, I find myself trying to channel your creativity every single time I craft. You have all taught me something new. Thank you for providing years of inspiration! Happy Anniversary, PTI! 🙂
I love that coming to visit Papertrey Ink Designers is a happy time – they also inspire me to create in ways I would not have thought of on my own. Thanks for the inspiration and way you gals are all so real!
WOW!! First off, I love the sneak peeks. Definitely want to see more of these stamp sets. Secondly, thanks design team for sharing your wonderful talent with all of us. I loved seeing your favorite creations. I was surprised that I did not recognize all of them, so that was a treat, like seeing them for the first time. And I was happy to see that some of the ones you guys picked as your favorite I would have picked as mine as well. Looking forward to another exciting year.
The PTI team has inspired me so much over the years! There are so many new techniques I’ve learned through their creativity and generosity, that I could say “Thank you” a hundred times and it still would not be enough! You guys rock!!
LOVE the different styles of the design team! Their creativity seriously encourages me to step outside of my comfort zone and try new things. It’s my dream to be on the PTI design team with these wonderful ladies someday!
So great to see all the DT are staying on. Just love the variety of styles represented. Thanks so much Nichole and DT for the wonderful inspiration every month. Now I’m off to check out the favourites for 2013 and to create something for the contest. What a lovely way to start the day!
I love all the inspiration from the designers each month, so many beautiful projects.
I can’t begin to tell you how often I come to your website and the sites of your design team for inspiration (or the number of times I have tried to explain to my husband why I must spend so much every month on your products! ). Your company is the BEST, your design team are creative GENIUSES, and I want to thank you so much for inspiring so many of us! Please don’t ever stop!
HOLY STINK!! This is going to be one exciting release! I can’t wait:) I LOVED seeing the design teams favorites. Some of their favorites were my favorites too and there are some of my favorites that I’m surprised did not make their list. Beauty really is in the eye of the beholder 😉
The great think about Paper Trey’s Design team is that there are a variety of styles presented each month. Even when a stamp set is not my favorite, someone on the DT will show me a way to use the set; that makes it a must have. Kudos to PTI for 6 years.
First I want to thank all the designers for their inspirations, they are all FANTASTIC! I have to say that Betsy and Melissa inspire me the most. Betsy nailed it with the Flip-flop card, Love Potion Card, Sunshine Card, In the Meadow Pop-up (my favorite) and the Counting My Blessings. And Melissa, such a girly-girl. I love all the frill’s, glitter, ribbon, buttons and her attention to detail. A big THANK YOU to all the designers.
I am rather new to Papertrey Ink, but have found a true love of your products. I get so many great ideas from all of your design team. Keep up the great work!
woo hoo! February is an exciting month at PTI! Congrats on your 6th anniversary and special thanks to the talented and creative DT!
Happy 6th Anniversary, PTI. What an exciting start to the anniversary celebrations. I like the cute bunny and it sounds like a great series for this year. I like the having one sentiment larger. Thank you to the DT members for all your inspirations. I’m so glad you are all here for another year of fun.
Happy anniversary! So excited to see what the team has in store for us this year. Such amazing talent and great products each month. I can’t wait to get started on my PTI-inspired projects tonight!

I am so grateful for all the PTI designers. I cannot tell you how much I have learned from all of you, and have been inspired to create more! Thank you so much ~ here’s looking forward to another year of fabulous fun!
Happy 6th Anniversary! I love the PTI Design Team and think it’s the best in the business. I think it’s great that so many styles are represented and I get inspiration from all of them.

Thank you to the PTI design team for all of the creativity you share with us. I am always inspired in some way by each of you.
Like to thank everyone in the Design Team for their wonderful creations and inspiration. They are my constant source of inspiration when I’m stuck or before I proceed to do a card or project. I’ve learnt so much from them in the span of these 2 years since I started card making.
I’ll try to squeeze in some projects to join in the celebration but with our big festive holidays coming up, I might not be able to.
Happy Anniversry PTI! Congratulations, and I hope to still be following you for many more years. Your DT never ceases to amaze and inspire me. Thanks for all of your hard work.

I’ve been along since nearly the beginning and look forward to the 15th of each month with much anticipation! Here’s to many more anniversary celebrations!
This team is amazing!! Each has their own style and you can almost always tell who made each project just by looking at the picture. They all have a unique way of using the PTI products and inspiration always abounds. Thanks, ladies, for all your hard work. Can’t wait for the rest of the fun!!
So glad to see all of the design team members returning for 2013! I am always so inspired by all of their creations.

Congratulations Papertrey Ink on your 6th anniversary!! I will always look and see what Maile and Cristina have done, as I love clean and simple. I love Dawn’s colour choices and her happy chirps. Nichole, you often blow me away with your creativity – oh, to have just a teensy bit of it! So looking forward to what’s coming in the next few days!
Happy Anniversary PTI and all the wonderful designers. Each and every one of you bring so much to the table, you’re all favorites for one reason or another.

Thank you to all the team for sharing a bit about themselves. I have been a fan of PTI since the beginning. I don’t think I have missed a month to order. (o: Although I have been dealing with vision issues for the last 2 years that has pretty much put quite a damper on my stamping ability, I still love seeing others create.
gettin’ inky…
Your company and your design team (past & present) are the VERY reasons I starting my own blog. I would visit your site and drink in all of the creativity that oozed from every corner! Thank you SO much to each and every one of you for your continued inspiration!!
Design team-THANK YOU for being the creative ladies you are! Whenever I get into a crafty stump, I turn not to Pinterest or other blogs or sites, oh no, I go straight to the PTI Design Team! There’s no need to go anywhere else! I can honestly say that I always find inspiration-and what’s great is the team is so diverse, so whatever my mood tends to be leaning towards, I know I’ll find something to be inspired by! Keep up the great work ladies!

Happy Anniversary, PTI! Thanks to Nichole and all of the DT members for the ongoing inspiration and beauty! I know I’ve become a better crafter because of your shared talent and wonderful products!

PS – I also appreciate the MIM videos, a FREE weekly mini-class.
I love the week before a release because I know that there are going to be awesome projects showcased each morning. I love how everyone does something different with a set/die – often things that I would have never thought of, but that I instantly want to try.

I’m always inspired by your team! Cannot wait to try my inspiration card & get it posted!
I first learnt about clear stamps and their possibilities when I found this blog. Since then I’ve been reading every month and following each designer. I don’t have a favourite – each one amazes me and I’m always left thinking “I wish I could do that!”. Thank you!
Papertrey Ink was the first place I ordered a stamp set online. Each and every month I am inspired, awed and impressed with the design team’s projects. Thanks so much. Here’s to another great year!
This was so fun looking over the design teams 6 favorite projects!! reminds me of a few sets that I want(and still do now). Thank you all for the inspiration I come back for, It’s been a while since I have had time to stamp with 4 kids running around, but I have got to pull out my stuff and create. This has been a lot of fun for me to check out-GREAT EYE CANDY!!
I look forward everyday to seeing all the new ideas and designs your team has to offer. You are all so amazing and talented! Thanks for the 6 years!
I am so excited to have the entire design team back this next year. I get so much joy out of looking at their inspiring ideas each month. It is like Christmas each month (the anticipation of the release, the sneak peaks, the beautiful projects packaged up like beautiful presents and then the big day…reveal day!) Thank you all so much! 🙂
Ladies, thank you for helping me look at the different ways to use a stamp. I think I get overwhelmed by the new products that by the time I get them home, I don’t know where to start. I top 3 design team members are Jessica, Cristina and Dawn by far. Their simple and clean styles move me. Thanks for the opportunity to leave a comment, Nichole. You are truly the reason why there’s so much talent on your website. Your keen eye for talent is exceptional!

First off, Happy Anniversary. I love the updated photos some of the ladies posted. Nicole’s blog is my treat every morning when I get to work. I see if she has anything new and then I start clicking on each design team member to see what’s happening in their world. I get more inspiration here than anywhere else and I totally love all your products. I love the design team and confess to a few favorites but you are all wonderfully talented and I love to see what each of you creates out of the same paper, ink, stamps, etc. You girlies are amazing.
Oh, how I have enjoyed each of the gal’s work since I found PTI! I had a long list I created for my husband for Christmas and got several of my favorite stamps and dies! I am going to try and participate in some of the challenges throughout the next 10 days! Thanks for the giveaways and fabulous product! Congrats!
Congratulations on six wonderful years. Has it only been six? You have the best design team around. Such varying styles they all have but inspiration pours from each of them in to me every month.
All the designers provide inspiration for me; some more than others. I love Dawn’s use of color–Heather’s use of Kraft paper–Cristina’s clean and simple look–Betsy’s feminine look. I could go on and on! Can’t wait for the next two week’s inspiration. Thanks Papertrey and Nichole for all you give!
Happy Anniversary Papertrey InK. I would like to thank the DT for being such and inspiration. I love seeing the samples they create using the newest releases, and all the different ways they use the product. I’ve really enjoyed visiting the blog.
Thank you to Nichole and each and every design team member for providing me with monthly mega inspiration. While I have my “favorites” I am consistently blown away with the creativity displayed every month by every designer. I am so thankful to have been a follower of Papertrey from the beginning! Happy Anniversary PTI!!!
I get so many ideas and inspiration from the whole team every month. Really appreciate all the hard work put into projects and stamp designing. My huge collection of Papertrey items are in constant use throughout the year. Thank you and Happy Anniversary!

Happy Anniversary! Wow – what incredible samples by an extremely talented Design Team! I so want it ALL!!
It really is the most wonderful time of the year! Thank you ladies for the inspiration each month. I love the different spin you each put on the products and just when I think you can not possibly get anymore creative you amaze me with something new! Keep up the good work.
I love the wonderful Papertrey design team! Nichole, it is obvious that you and the DT members spend enormous amounts of time on projects, tutorials and blog posts. Please know how much your hard work is appreciated and enjoyed. You are the best!
I can’t wait to see this month’s reveal. I know it will be great, as all the past reveals have been. I LOVE your company, the stamps, ink, paper, dies, ribbon,….all of it. I have been a fan since the begining and have the stamps to prove it. as long as you keep making them i’ll keep buying. thanks for the 6yrs of great products.
Happy 6th Anniversary PTI!!!! I love seeing the DT blow us away with such creativity!! I’m a CAS girl but I love seeing all the styles the designers bring to the table – everything inspires me or let’s me see something in a way I hadn’t envisioned. Great job girls!
Congrats on 6 fabulous years! Papertrey is my go to when I need to find inspiration and motivation to start new projects. I often find so many wonderful cards, that I then have a hard time deciding on just one. The design team is a great mix of styles and there is something for everyone. Thank you for your commitment and all of your hard work. You do make difference in the lives of many fans and inspire us to make something creative every day!
I am so looking forward to another year of fun and inspiration that the Design Team will deliver. Each and every one of them are so gifted, each in their own unique way. I love the clean and simple, Melissa’s vintage charm, Debbie’s Copic magic, Dawn’s color palate…just all of creativity. And when I grow up, I want to be Betsy. Her style speaks to my heart. Keep up the great work!!
Happy Anniversary!! Big thanks to all the oh so talented ladies on the team. I look forward to another great inspiring year.
Happy 6th Birthday PTI!!!
I have spent the afternoon reading each entry by each designer and your addition for each one. I have scrolled through each design and have just loved, loved my afternoon. What a delightful joy I have spent with each of you. Thank you soooo much for all the sharing.
Happy Anniversary Papertrey Ink! I truly believe the design team is the best in the business! I cannot believe how much time and effort they put into each and every release. Thanks so much for all you do…..it is appreciated greatly!
So happy that everyone is staying on the team. I truly appreciate the different styles. There hasn’t been a month that I don’t walk away with a new idea to try. Thanks so much PTI!
I just recently discovered your products and I love them! I spent quite a bit of time browsing the gallery and you have some amazing designers. They showcase your products impeccably! Thanks to them I’m a big fan!
THANK YOU to all the designers. All your ideas continue to inspire me to be creative. All the ideas are fresh and exciting. Here’s to another awesome year with PaperTrey Ink!
i am always amazed at what the designers can do, how they can see the stamp images and create something that i never would have managed. amazing ladies and amazing talent. thank you, everyone, for sharing your talents with us!
Thanks for the always amazing, always inspiring projects Design Team!! Your work is appreciated.
You have an amazing design team put together. They give so much inspiration not only with their cards, but I truly appreciate all of the Make it Monday videos. Hoping I can learn a lot more from all of this team over the coming year!
Thanks for all of your sharing!
I absolutely love the inspiration that the PTI design team offers up each month. I absolutely love Nichole, Dawn & Erin’s styles, and am still attempting to create that one layer *perfect* card style that Maile has mastered!
The Papertrey DT is the reason I keep coming back to PTI – they always show us so many ways to use the same set of stamps each month. I love that they all have such different styles! And the fact that they are so real – being involved in the forum as much as they are is amazing – I can’t think of another stamp company where you can actually chat with the DT on the forum! Way to go ladies – you are appreciated!!!
I just want to thank Nichole and all the design team for all your hard work. I cannot wait to see what this year has in store for us!
I love all the designers!! I follow all the blogs and cannot wait for new posts. Of course this is my favorite time of the month!! Thanks to all as you guys rock!!
Congrats Papertrey! Thank you Cristina. You bring me so much inspiration!
Amazing how the DT always has fabulous cards and is so inspirational!
The PTI design team is fabulous… can’t tell you how many things have been added to my list because of a sample one of them created. Great job!
I think PTI has the very best design team members. I am always inspired by them and usually CASE something they have made when I look for a card to make. Thank you to Nichole and every single design team member for the time and effort you all put into the releases every month.
Happy Anniversary, PTI! A special thanks to all the DT members. So many crafting styles are represented that I always get inspiration or a new way of looking at design possibilities. May the next year be even better, and thanks for the chance to win this great prize!
Happy Anniversary PTI and to Nichole for an awesome company. I love coming to check out all of the great creations!
Love the anniversary month! Something fun to brighten up these gray winter days. Getting to know the design team a little more is always delightful. Looking forward to it all.
The Design Team is so creative. Their working is so inspiring. I’m a clean and simple girl, but looking at Betsy’s and Melissa’s work makes me feel like I can do shabby chic. Dawn’s cards are so happy and Erin keeps it real. I love reading her blog posts and absolutely love the MIM. Thank you Design Team!! You all are SO talented! Keep up the good work for 2013!
I am so excited for your 6th anniversary celebration! Congratulations on your success! I subscribe to a few of the design team members’ blogs and thoroughly enjoy the inspiration I get in my inbox every day – thank you!
Thank you so much for all of your beautiful cards and inspiration! I am so happy to know about PTI and enjoy my addiction immensely. Happy anniversary PTI!
Happy 6th Anniversary to my FAVORITE stamping company! Thanks for all you do!
I am always so amazed at all the creativity I see each month from the design team. I’m happy to see them all returning for 2013. I look forward to oodles of inspiration they are sure to provide!
Happy Anniversary PTI! And thanks to the wonderful design team for 6 years of inspiration!!!
Not only another release, but a 6th anniversary too – doesn’t get much better than that! Adorable sneak peeks….and the 6 projects highlights for the 6th anniversary – bliss. THANK YOU, each and every one for such incredible inspiration 🙂
I’m already thinking about Valentine tags, inspired by Heather! So excited to see the DT is staying put. I love seeing what each of them do with the stamps, how varied they are, how they think outside the box, or how they make me want a set that wasn’t even on my radar (Erin is good at doing that!!) Congratulations on another year!
I really enjoyed seeing all the design team’s favorite projects! Very inspiring.
Congratulations PTI! I have loved your simple, clean style from the moment I stumbled across your company 5 years ago! The Design team has changed over the years but always provides tons of inspiration. Thank you PTI for inspiring craftiness!
So glad I stumbled across PTI. I love everything I have bought . The community and how things are us here is awesome.
Looking forward to another anniversary celebration from PTI. Each month I anticipate the releases and all the creativity and talent shown by Nicole and all the design team. My thanks to all of you!
Happy Anniversary! I have always admired the work of your wonderful design team. Papertrey products are always high quality!
Love it! Completely missed Betsy’s genius lab coat card!
Congratulations on 6 years! I only found out about Papertrey Ink a little over a year ago. The Design Team is a terrific group of talented ladies whose creativity has inspired me and helped me to grow as a stamper and card maker.
I love the DT and drool over all the creations! Would love to win my wish list, what an awesome idea. Thank you all for everything you do!
oh so many beautiful designers and cards! You have one of the best teams in the business! Here’s to another great year!
I am a PTI groupie. I have files for each stamp set and put all the DT projects in there plus any I found around the web. Then when I need some inspiration it’s waiting for me. The release week is always so much fun each week. I am thankful for everyones hard work. Happy Anniversary PTI!
Month after month the Design Team blows me away with all their talent. It would be so impossible to pick one designer as my favorite because every month a different lady has that one special project that makes me love PTI even more. HAPPY 6TH ANNIVERSARY PTI!!!
How fun to see the review of projects–some of those were my favorites too! I love to see the variety of styles. I make CAS cards, but I love to look at all the DT projects. Thank you, thank you, DT and Nichole, for all the amazing inspiration you provide every month.
I love the inspiration from the PTI team. I have tried out things I normally wouldn’t because of what I see here. Thanks to all of you!
Thank you to all the design team members! Your work is truly amazing!!
Congratulations on your 6th year! I just love PTI stamps! You and your fabulous design team inspire me all the time and I truly thank you! May you keep on going for many many more years!!
I had a ball looking at each DT member’s blog–pinned a lot of cards, too! It will be hard, but I’m going to CASE at least one to enter the contest. Off to see if I can figure out how to do the wishlist.
Each and everyone of your desingers are amazing. Thank you for everything Nicole. You keep me inspired.
Woo hoo! I’m so happy to see the design team back in full force this year. What an amazing group of designers they are! Every month they blow me away — making me want stamp sets that I certainly didn’t “need” before I visited their blogs. Thanks for the LOADS of inspiration {and enabling} you give us each month.
Thank you design team for all you do! Many is the day when I was a little down and just looking at your blogs, or that day’s projects if it’s release time cheered me right up! You all inspire me!
Congratulations on 6 years! I love PTI! Thank you for continuing to bring us amazing products and incredible inspiration! The Design Team is the BEST! Melissa Phillips is my personal fave, but I really enjoy all of the other designers, as well. It is amazing to see what everyone can do with the same product! Thank you to everyone at Papertrey!
Thank you for so much inspiration! I love all the creativity that comes out of PTI team, and can’t wait for each month to see what’s new. Looking forward to seeing so much more!
I think PTI has the BEST design team online by far! Everyone’s style is so different and the way they interpret individually how they want to use the stamps are truly inspirational. I love you all and always look forward to the middle of the month for the countdowns. Cannnnnnoooottt wait to see what ya got for us this month. Happy Anniversary everyone! Blessings.
I love these ladies! Thank you so much for the wonderful ideas and inspiration!
Thank You Papertrey Ink. Your projects create so much inspiration for me each month. I love reading all the team members blogs each month as new products are revealed and showcased. Keep up the great work.
Happy anniversary PTI! Thr design team is AMAZING! I am constantly blown away by the talent!!!
All the designers are wonderfully creative! There have been so many times where I’ve found myself stuck in a rut, and all I would have to do is look at the release party links and it just gets the muse going back again. Every designer for papertrey is so inspirational in their special style!
Love, love, love PTI and your team from the first moment I stumbled across your website. I always look forward to the posts. Best read…ever. Thanks so much for brightening my day.
Not only does the Team design the stamp sets but they also come up with such fantastic ideas for us to look at and use to get our creative juices flowing. I’m amazed by how you do it month after month. Thank you Design Team!
Congratulations on 6 years PTI! And to the design team – thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for all of your hard work & creativity that you share with us each month – it is truly inspiring! Here’s to another great year for PTI in 2013!!! 🙂
I have seen hundreds and hundreds of designers here in blog land and there is oodles of talent out there but…….. The PTI girls continue to WOW me month after month after month!!!!i I am constantly amazed by their creativity and how it NEVER runs out! I have often said that being a PTI designer would be a dream job and I will always feel that way. I just need to win the lottery so I can finally purchase all the stamps and paper and dies that I am missing! Thank you for all the inspiration! PTI got me interested in stamping years ago and years later they still have my attention!!
Thank you for all of the fabulous projects and ideas that you share every month! I am so excited for this anniversary celebration!
Happy Anniversary PTI! Congratulations on 6 years of fabulous stamps, products and designing! Your team is the best of the best and I am always inspired by their work. Thank your for sharing your gifts of creativity. Best wishes for continued success!

I get so much amazing inspiration from the design team every month. Thanks for all you do!
Happy Anniversary PTI! Thanks to all the designers, I really like Dawn’s stamps but of the projects the team inspire us with, I usually enjoy Heather,Maile’s and Nichole’s the most. However all the DT do an amazing job and have a different styles, there are so many different things they can do with one set of stamps!
What amazing talent the design team has! They continually amaze me with the way they think “out of the box”.
So excited to see all the releases this month! Love all the card favorites and happy to have the team back for another year! 🙂
Your design team is simply the best!!!
I do have my favorites but am always excited to see what they create.Their imagination is second to none and I can say I always aspire to do their ideas justice when I sit with the sets they have played with.
Congratulations on your 6th anniversary.
Thank you to the most amazing company and DT in the world for all the joy and happiness you bring me every month. your hard work is so much appreciated by a’ll ofbus mere mortal crafters. We thoroughly enjoy what you have to show us each month.
I’m glad we will have the same design team for 2013-14. I find the design team so inspiring and enthusiastic. This time of the year is very exciting. Thanks for the festivities.
The inspiration from the team has been remarkable. They make me want products that I would never had purchased. Their examples show the many ways you can use product. Thanks so much ladies. Congrats papertreyink! I can’t wait to see what you have coming this year!
I just love all the design team gals. The different and individual take on the released product is always inspiring.
Happy Anniversary to Nicole and the whole design team. Each of you bring your own individual style and designs for the rest of us to admire and recreate. THANKS
I am very pleased to have the chance to thank the Design Team. I look in on their blogs every day and am a huge PTI fan. Of course I have my favourites. When I look through my PTI stamp collection, the vast majority are designed by Nicole, I love her clean, modern designs. I also love Heather’s colour palette and Cristina and Maile’s stunning ways with clean and simple. However most of all I am blown away by Betsy’s ingenuity, design acumen and all-round brilliant-ness. Thank you very much, I always gain so much inspiration from you.
Love you pti…
I am so excited it is PTI’s anniversary. I adore the Anniversary celebrations. I cannot wait to see what else is coming up. Super Excited. 🙂 Lesley

I am so glad everyone will be back for another year! This is really one of the greatest groups of creative people ever. How you each have your own style, and how you all come up with such amazing ideas month after month. So inspiring! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
What a great way to start of the anniversary festivities! I really enjoyed having a read through all the DTs posts and why they picked their projects. love their work and how they can use the same product but create such different inspiring projects. Thanks!

And a huge thank you to the Nichole and the design team for sharing your talents with your projects, videos, and forum visits.
I am always inspired by Dawn. Her “happy” designs are great!
Thanks, Design Team members, for the kick start you provide when I need ideas. I go to your blogs over and over for inspiration!
Happy 6th Anniversary PTI !! I look on the site EVERY day and follow the girls to see what they have crafted.Keep up the awesome work-I appreciate all of you! Angie
I am so very excited for what PTI has offered so far and for the the future holds. They have truly lead the market for paper stamps & dies… If they would only get a Canadian wholesaler… I don’t like getting things a month after everyone else 🙁
You’d make a killing in Canada … We love you up here!!! Think about it…
Thank you all so VERY much for all of the beautiful stamps you design, the amazingly creative cards you all create, and the blogs you maintain so the rest of us can share in your artistic talents. I use each and every design team member to inspire my cards each year. You are by far my favorite stamps out there and I cant wait to see what 2013 holds for Papertrey! Thank you again!
I love all the beautiful projects that the design team creates. You ladies are awesome and so inspiring.
I want to give a big THANK YOU to all the talented ladies of PTI. Your creativity always gets my mojo working! I’m looking forward to another exciting year.
Thank you PTI! I’ve said it numerous times, but I love each of the designers & your individual styles. It’s apparent that you invest loads of time into your projects, & I just can’t resist spending more money! I recognize nearly all of the projects above, & have created many of them for friends/ family. Congrats to my favorite stamp company!
Nicole words cannot express how much inspiration I get from the DT. After dinner I go to my craft room and check the blogs and have some papercraft fun. SOme days I feel so guilty I take a few things into the family room to be with my hubby. I know you can all relate!
WOW! I love this post! Many of the designers’ favorites were favorites of mine over the years. Such an exciting time. Happy 6th Anniversary!
I am so inspired by Dawn McVey and pretty much all the Papertrey designers. All the wonderful card ideas are so wonderful, they make me just want to create!!
Thanks to Nichole and the design team for all of your wonderful projects each month. Also a thank you to everyone behind the scenes for making everything else run smoothly. To another great year of wonderful stamps and projects!!
Just LOVE all the great inspiration the talented Design Team brings every month. It’s my favorite part of the monthly product release. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! You all inspire me.
The Dt is tge greatest! Love the inspiration!
Thank you to everyone on the Design Team for sharing all of their ideas each month. It gives me great inspiration and jumpstarts ideas of my own!
HANDS DOWN! tHE WORLDS GREATEST DESIGN TEAM! tHANKS FOR SHARING.!
I am always so inspired by the design team. Sometimes I already know that I want/need a set before I see what they make with it. But other times they just blow me out of the water. They will take a set that I was certain I did NOT need, and use it in such a way that it flies right to the top of my list!! In my mind that is truly inspiring:)
What an inspiring group of gals! AND, I love how much you support and care for each other (and us)!
Thank you so much for the endless inspiration that you give me. I am always in awe of the projects that are created. I can’t wait for the 5th of each month, because the inspiration I get just makes me want to create everything I see. Thanks again.
Happy 6th anniversary PTI! I’m amazed when I look back at the sheer creativity you have brought to the craft. I love the team and their endless design ideas they share monthly. Thank you for helping me become a better crafter. I look forward to seeing what you have in store for us this year. Thanks PTI.
Oh, my… so many neat projects. Love looking through them. Awesome job DT! Happy Anniversary PTI!
What an exciting year this will be! Somehow PTI always exceed my expectations! Looking forward to each and every release!
Congrats to PTI and the DT! It’s always so exciting to see each month’s release and the beautiful projects created by the DT.
Happy 6th Anniversary Papertrey Ink! I’ve been with you from the very first day and I’ve loved seeing the growth and evolution of this fabulous company! The best Design Team in the business always inspires and I always look forward to a new month to see the new goodies you introduce! Thanks for 6 amazing years, here to many, many more!
This design team totally rocks! Always a wide array of styles…something for everyone. Thanks!
Thank you Design Team for all of your wonderful creations and ideas. I just love Papertrey!!!
I love the variety of styles that the design team showcases. I love that I can go on a blog hop and see everything from a stunning clean and simple creation to and in depth shabby chic masterpiece!
Wow..can’t imagine how busy you gals are this time of year with all of the celebration. What a fun way to celebrate your success..doing something all of you love. Can’t wait to see what is “in store” (LOL) for this year. Congratulations and wishes of continued success in 2013!
This is the most amazing DT ever! I love the different styles of each one. It has given me so much creativity in my own card making. DT…you ROCK!
My first PTI order was back in 2010 and have been in love with the products and spectacular DTs ever since. Happy Anniversary PTI! I look forward to your creative genius in the coming year.
Congratulations on your 6th anniversary. Love seeing all the new designs and projects. Thanks for giving me so much inspiration.
Congratulations on a BIG 6 years and awesome products and the best designers in town. I cannot thank them enought for all of their inspiration. Each offering just a little of themselves. So fun to see what they have to offer each month. It is the highlight of my day. Keep up the excellent work and Cheers to you all.
Thank you for six years of inspiration! I love to see the wonderful things made by the talented Design Team each and every month.
Since discovering PTI almost five years ago, it’s been part of my daily crafting life in some form or another – whether it be visiting my favorite designer blogs each day, using my PTI products or seeking inspiration in PTI colors. Thank you for so many wonderful ideas, creations and products – Happy Anniversary!
thank you to all of the design team for sharing their creativity. they are all amazing, they always show different ways of using a stamp set that i never would have thought of, they can take a stamp set that when i first see it i’ll think “i don’t need that” then when they’re done the set becomes a “must have.” you are all so appreciated.
Fantastic inspiration pieces! I can’t imagine how hard it was for the team to narrow down six!
Can’t wait to see what’s in store for us! Love all the projects, especially Danielle’s (my favorite!) Got my wish list ready…thanks for the opportunity to win it all!
Glad to see everyone back for another year! Even if I never actually make it into my craft room, seeing everyone’s projects always gets me itching to create.
The exceptional talent from each of the DT members is what has made me a loyal PTI customer for the past few years. I look forward to the inspiration that the PTI team brings in the future!
The Design Team continues to amaze me with their creativity. Every month I look forward to seeing the new designs and samples. Thank you for all your hard work and inspiration!
These are very inspirational! Good grief but my wish list just grew ALOT!! It is so much easier to see what you’ve missed when you see houw others have used something you overlooked! Congratulations on 6 years!
Happy Birthday, PTI! I love your design team – they always come up with wonderful creations that satisfy my need for eye candy!
Congratulations! I have been waiting and an anticipating your anniversary! I knew it would be special…and day one is out of the park! Can’t wait to see what else you have planned!
I just love this design team and the wonderful creations that they post each month. They have certainly inspired me and have stretched me creatively by their works. Thank you for all you do for us, it is greatly appreciated.
Thank you for all the beautiful inspiration!
Big congrats on your sixth anniversary! I love all the excitement and celebration posts. And big thanks to all the fabulous inspiration from the DT. I just love to play along.
Congrats on your six year anniversary and thank you for providing not only high quality products for us to create with but a fabulous design team to inspire us!
I am so happy to see all the DT members are staying. I love the variety of projects you come up with each month. Thank you design team!
I truly enjoy visiting every day but specially during the release days just to see what the awsome Design Team has created! I enjoy all of your styles since I have not settle/figured mine! Because of you ladies I have tried several techniques and styles and have started stamping a bit more! (I started visiting because of the dies) Thanks for sharing you work and inspiring so many!
I just want to thank the amazing design team. About a year ago I became interested in card making and stamping and I found papertrey. I think I read every one of Nichole’s blog posts and saw so many inpirational projects on it from all design team members. I started ordering stamps, and with the help of all the inspirational cards & projects on the blog, I was able to start creating. I finally have enough skills to start branching off into my own ideas, but I really couldn’t have done it without the inspiration from the amazing design team. Thank you!
So happy to see everyone back again this year – I am constantly amazed by the wonderful projects that you all come up with month after month! Thank you so much for all the inspiration – I am loving the journey!!
Thanks to this great design team who keep us inspired year round!!!
Congrats on six years of creative togetherness! I love Papertrey Ink stamps and dies. I still want to try the paper and inks but just haven’t yet. Can’t wait to see what this year holds for all of us!
The design team and their creativity is what really shows off all of the products. Each member of the design team approaches their work from different perspectives which really shines through in their work. We, the customer’s, benefit by getting to see all the possibilities of each stamp set. Then you throw in the color combos! Always a treat to see how each design team member uses the new releases…keep ’em coming!
stunning inspirations by the DT team! I love your work!
Hugs,Beate
Super excited to play along during the festivities. Looking forward to another 6 years.
The design team is amazing! I watch every month for their takes on the release stamps and they always amaze me on how talented they all are. One day (I wish) I could be as talented as they are. Great job to all!
What can I say about the PTI design team? They are simply the BEST!! No other stamp company has close to the talent that PTI does. I can’t wait, month after month, to see what these girls come up with. Scrolling through each of their blogs is like flipping through the best craft magazines. They are so inspiring (and enabling)!! 🙂 They are so varied in their styles, but equally as stunning. Thank you for all the years of inspiration you have given us!
Happy Anniversary!!! Thank you PTI and design team for the continued inspiration!
Always something “EXCITING” at PTI, love it! Thanks to all of you for enjoying what you do and bringing enjoyment to all of your customers. Your enthusiasm, talent, and creativity are a inspiration to all.
Many, many thanks for sharing what you do so well.
Thank You ALL for all the inspiration..look so much forward to each release and blog update from you all!
WOW! I love the sneak peaks, I can’t wait to see the rest of the set. I love the challenge and seeing all the great projects from the design team again. Such Talent!
Happy Anniversary Papertrey Ink!!! & here’s to many more to come… Thank you for all the amazing idea’s/style/creativity…etc. inspired by the DT.
I love how each team member brings about a different flare to each card that they create. The different creative perspectives really inspire me to do some crafting!
The design team is just one of the many reasons I have remained a faithful PTI customer. Happy Anniversary, PTI! And now off to add to my wishlist!
I’m so happy the Design Team are all staying this year.
They are all so talented.
I’m loving the sneak peak of Maile’s new set. Can’t wait for the full reveal!
Thank you ALL for the wonderful job you do to create these mini works of art. I only discovered Papertrey in the past year, but I am completely in awe every month. I look forward to the rest of the Anniversary celebration.
It’s great fun to see all your favorites. I love the art that’s created here.
Happy Anniversary Papertrey Ink! another year of awesomeness 🙂 I always thank you for your inspirations.
I am consistently amazed at the creativity the Design Team brings each month, I’m so glad to hear you’ll all be back for another year! Thanks for all you do and Happy 6th Anniversary!
So glad to see everyone back for another year. I enjoyed viewing all of your favorite projects very much. Anniversary time is so exciting and I can’t wait to see what is in store. Thank you!!!
I love your company. Thank you for all of the wonderful designs and inspiration that you give us each month!
There is so much to take in! I am writing myself notes to keep track. Very fun, I’m sure it will be even more fun when I get the hang of it all! A newbie :-p Can you tell?
The creative team does so many wonderful inspiring things that I can’t wait to try them myself.

Congrats on 6 great years! Have been a papertrey addicted for all 6. Love all the wonderful sets and samples from all the talented ladies through the years. Lean more toward the clean and simple concept, but enjoy them all! Here’s to another 6 years.. and another.. and another!
I cannot praise the Papertrey Ink Design Team enough. You ladies always astound me with your creativity, your inspiration, your willingness to share that side of you with the world, and your down-to-earthedness. 🙂 Thank you for making the world a little more beautiful.
so much inspiration has been given by the talented design team. Best of the best!
Yes, a big thank you to Nichole and the Design Team! There have been many times when I had “craft block” and turned to one of their blogs and the inspiration started to flow again. Your creativity just amazes me! I would love to win the things on my wish list – what a prize that would be!
I am always amazed at the variety of ideas that can come from one stamp set. Some play straight to me strengths and interests, while others get me thinking outside the box. Congratulations on another great year
How exciting! So looking forward to another year of amazing inspiration! Heather J.
Happy Anniversary!!
The entire team is amazing. But I must admits to a dew favorites–like a lot of us, I envy Debbie’s mastery of coloring! And I love Maile and Cristina’s clean and simple graphic style–but everyone is GREAT!!
You design team gals are amazing. Every month I love jumping from blog to blog to see what you all have come up with during the releases. I love the variety because each of you has a style that is unique to you. Thank you for the fun inspiration.
Congrats to everyone!. I enjoy looking at all the projects made by the design team, I find it very inspiring. I have recently joined Pintrest, and found it very useful when I had to make a quick wedding card this week. Thank you for all your time and talent that you share with us.
This past year has been so full of inspiration from these ladies that I just cannot wait to see what they come up with to inspire us this year! Thank you too all of the fabulous design team!!!!!
Congrats on 6 years of awesome products. I always look forward to each release to see what fabulous new products the PTI girls have dreamed up next. Here’s to many more wonderful years!
Well, it’s official….I’m doomed for another year of irresistible releases with this AMAZINGLY TALENTED design team! I’m NOT complaining, but my checkbook sure is. 😉
Congrats on another year of creative success!
I’m so excited to see what the new sets will be like for this release! I’m already intrigued with the peeks. I’m not sure I can say enough good things about the design team you have. I follow their blogs and I am always beyond inspired with what they come up with but truly they seem like the sweetest ladies. Having spent time on the Papertrey Forum’s I am always touched at the sweet things they have to say. I’ve gathered so much information about stamping and crafting from them but they always seem to have great ideas and suggestions about other things too (i.e. books, movies, etc). So thanks to the design team for being so talented, so sweet and so down to earth. I’d have coffee with you gals any time! 😉
CONGRATULATIONS on 6 Fabulous Years!

What a talented group of ladies that represent so many different styles. Happy 6th Anniversary PTI!
What a wonderful post for today! Love looking at all the favorites the designers have picked themselves. I have my Favorite Designers of course, but learn so much from all of them. I always see and find ideas and special items they all create that I covet. They are such talented ladies. So glad for all their differences and talents. PaperTrey Ink is still a fresh and fun Company and I love to see what they offer every month!
Wow, what an amazing team of designers. So much creativity from the entire team!

Thanks for the past 6 years of creative inspiration and instructions!
Although I’m a CAS gal, it’s great to see all different styles on the design team. So much opportunity for new ideas and growth. PTI is my #1 single source for inspiration, and is what really pushed me into card-making from scrapbooking. It was at CHA 2010 or 2011, the last year you were in Chicago. All your samples projects totally blew me away. I had no idea people created like that! Happy anniversary!!
Love love love the designers! Thanks for all the beautiful ideas!
The PTI Design Team continues to be a constant source of inspiration. Each member brings a different take on the stamps, each refreshing and inspiring. Happy Anniversary!!
The Papertrey design team has something for everyone, which is why I tell all my crafty friends about this website. I look forward to every month’s countdown and visit daily just to see the challenges and what others have posted. To win the big prize would be a dream come true! Thank you so much!
The design team is amazing and I’m so happy to see all their creations every month. Happy Stamping Cynthia

Congratulations on turning 6 years old!! I am an avid fan of PTI. Even though I don’t have time to craft like I want to, I am continually inspired by the design team and their amazing projects. It’s what makes me look for moments to do at least a little something. I can’t wait to see what this year has in store. 🙂

I am so happy to see all the designers back, it’s such an eclectic mix of awesome styles that keeps me in my toes! I love any month during the 10-15th because I know I will totally be in awe of their creations!!
I am always amazed at the creations by your designers. Everything is always so cute. Thanks for all your designs and ideas.
Thanks to the Design Team (DT) for bringing different perspectives each and every month. Without fail, there is always a stamp set in each new release that makes the transformation from my “maybe” list to my “gotta have it” list because of the DT. Looking forward to all that 2013 will offer!
Beautiful projects. So much inspiration. What a great contest.
Thank you for all of the amazing inspiration!!
Papertrey Ink has the very best DT in the industry!
Thank you to all the absolutely amazing designers of PTI – you are such an inspiration to me! You take fabulous products and make them shine! Keep up the great work and I can’t wait to see what’s in store for the future!
A huge THANK YOU to all of the designers! Can’t wait to see what you have in store for us this year!
WOW!!! I just discovered your company from cards made by Mailee Belles(I’ve been laid up in bed for a month)She is an amazing card designer and also stamp designer. I’ve seen clean cut card designs in magazines, but didn’t know how people achieved them–die cuts. Papertrey Ink’s are fabulous! I love this company!
I love all the designers. They are all so different they help me expand my ideas. I can’t wait every month to see what wonderful things they will come up with. I can’t imagine coming up with ideas so unique every month. Way to go PTI ladies.
I visit PTI and several of the Design Team blogs on a daily basis. I get so much inspiration from the products, posts and projects I see on all the blogs. Happy Anniversary!
