After seven years in business, warehouse space has become a premium! Take a look at a few of these shots I took with my phone the last time I visited this fall!
Which is why moving forward we need to be wary of how we fill the remainder of our space! This year we are going to try something new in regards to releasing new colors. We will be initially introducing just the cardstock, pattern packs and ink in the new hues, with the possibility of other coordinating products coming in the future after the popularity of the color is established. This will give us the opportunity to release more colors in the three basic products you use most.
This month we are thrilled to introduce you to Tropical Teal! Something everyone has been waiting for! Unfortunately, the ink will not be arriving in time for this months release, but we wanted to go ahead and make the cardstock available for sale this month. We are optimistic that the Tropical Teal ink will arrive for a release in March.
This new color is luxuriously rich and is the perfect hue to fall right in between Pinefeather and Hawaiian Shores. It will be a wonderful addition to your collection and I know you will love using it in your projects!
I am pleased to announce our annual “Year of Free Stamps” Contest. As tradition holds, one lucky winner will receive monthly shipments after every release containing all of the newly released stamp sets in 2014! This can easily amount to over 150 stamp sets total throughout the year! Imagine never having to worry about choosing what stamps to cut out of your cart because of budget constraints.

Loving all of the stuff going on. Keep it all up and looking forward to the new year
So excited for stamp- a- faire. Love the elegance of the Victorian era.- Irma
Oh this is a fun challenge. I like the idea of making a card on limited time and limited materials. It’s a fun way to be creative in an interesting way.
LOVE the Time Travel theme but most of all I’m excited about the new ink/paper color. LOVE! I think I gasped out loud when I saw it. Thanks Papertrey!
My favorite era would be what I guess you would call the renaissance era….castles…kings queens knights etc!
I can’t wait for Stamp-a-faire! I already put in for the day off! How exciting! And I’m hoping the Victorian Era is represented!
I love the theme of SAF this year and cannot wait to see what you come up with. I love Victorian elegance but am loving Gatsby style at the moment too!
So much fun! Excited to see how you will represent each era.
I think my favorite era would be the Victorian era. The Stamp A Faire sounds like so much fun! Hope I’ll be able to participate in some of the events! I’m excited to see all the new products for this month’s release.
Wowsa!! There is a lot of fun stuff going on! I cant wait to see whats next!!
I love the idea of showcasing the design style of many eras. I’d have to say the 30s and 40s are my favorite.
Love the new Teal!! I would really, really love to see it in felt!
Stamp-A-Faire will be fabulous, no doubt! I love the time travel theme. Can’t wait to see what the PTI crew has up their sleeves. I don’t have a favorite era, but will be interested to see how the 70’s and 80’s are represented. 🙂
Love the SAF theme this year. What fun is in store for us! I am torn – Antebellum, Victorian, the 20’s and then the 60’s. I am a child of the 60’s and that era holds a special place in my heart. Flower Power, Beatles, British Invasion, love it all. Can’t wait to see what everyone comes up with for this. And am loving the Tropical Teal. Yummy!
My favorite time in history is the 1800’s. Thinking pioneers across America, rustic, homespun style. Thanks for the chance to win.
I love Tropical Teal! So excited to see new cardstock colors coming back!!
the theme of the stamp-a-faire is a great idea. i love the look of the 1950’s, the colors, the florals, aprons etc., this would be my favorite era. thanks.
I’ve never joined in Stamp-a-Faire, 2014 might just have to be the year! 🙂
What a fun theme for Stamp-a-faire! You always have the BEST ideas! In love with the new color too!
I think the Middle Ages is exciting – but I would not have lived in this time **lol**
The new “Tropical Teal” fits so great with the other colors- thanks for that 🙂
so funny. and I love the new color.
I have loved the online Themes of Stamp-A-Faire so far. My favorite era in time is the 1940s. I loved the clothes so much and the music.
I love the time travel concept – and I like the styles of many eras. It’s too hard to choose, so I guess variety is my wish!
And thanks for sending the emails about your 7th anniversary.
Woo Hoo! Another fun time for my birthday weekend…how appropriate that the theme is ‘time traveler!’ JUST.SO.EXCITED.
My favorite era in time is THE FUTURE! Could be so much fun to explore what’s next building something completely new with what we have to work with.
Thanks for your continued inspiration. I may not have found you 7 years ago, but you have certainly been a significant part of my creative life since I happened along your and your DT’s blogs! Happy anniversary!
It will be fun to see all the inspiration that comes from this year’s Stamp-a-Faire! I think maybe 50’s Mad Men era would be my favorite.
Soooooo excited about a new color!! It’s gorgeous!
What a great theme! I can’t wait to see what designs the talented PTI designers come up with!
Great idea for Stamp-A-Faire – got to love the 50’s myself!
Penny H
OH how I LOVE the new color! Can’t wait for Stamp-a-Faire! Your ideas are out of this world and everything is such quality. LOVE PTI! You always inspire me!
Stamp-A-Faire 2014 is going to be terrific – I love my music! If I were to create a challenge, I would select the 70’s. I was recently reminded of how much fun it was when Daft Punk won album and record of the year at the Grammy’s for their song “Get Lucky.” One of their You Tube videos is all about the Soul Train dancers and boy is it fun to watch – those high-waisted bell bottoms were quite the rage! Looking forward to seeing what the designers come up with. BTW, I’m also looking forward to that Tropical Teal. C.
Love the new color! Neverbeen able to do a SAF, maybe this year. It looks like sooo much fun!
Love the new color. I hope my mom and I will be participating in stamp-a-faire this year. Thanks for all you are doing for your anniversary.
I hope to see the 80’s during Stamp-a-faire!!!! Love the new color….hoping for a paler purple, lighter grey and vivid blue in the future!
SAF sounds like it’s going to be amazing!
And the new tropical teal!? It’s GORGEOUS!!
Can’t wait to participate in today’s challenge!
What a great theme for this year. I think my favorite era was in the 1940’s. I love the clothing style from that era.
Can’t wait for the time challenge. I am going to do the picking products part now. Love that there will be new colors!
Congrats on your anniversary! I can certainly see why you have made it this far, your products are fantastic and I look forward to seeing what you have designed for this coming year. Thanks!
Oh wow, I just forgot about everything else when I saw the new color. I can’t wait to get my hands on Tropical Teal, seriously. As for favorite eras, I honestly have no preference, because I know whatever you choose will be fabulous!
Definitely the Tudor era – kings & queens, beautiful fabrics, LOTS of mixing of rich deep colors
Love that new color! It’s hard to pick a particular era, but I would have to say the 30’s and 40’s for papercrafting would be fun.
What era? That’s a tough one as far as crafting goes……I like the 1950 era I think! I am thinking of tablecloths and aprons.
Perfect – I’ve got to work all day, so a timed challenge might mean I get a chance to join in once I’m home and the family’s fed. Love the new colour.
Love the Stamp-a-Faire theme this year!! I haven’t been able to join in the fun in past years but will be part of it this year! I am drawn to the 50’s/60’s.
Stamp-a-Faire sounds awesome this year!! Hmmm, a fave era is hard to choose but I am going to go with the 50s!
What a great theme for this years Stamp-A-Faire. The 50s & 60s would be my favorite era.
I love the theme of Stamp-a-faire this year. “Traveling tough time“ is a geraten idea. Cannot wait to see what you come up with. I love the new color. My favourite time ist Themen future. I’m excited wahr ideal you have for it.
A lover of the Little House books, I would have to say that the pioneer era is one of my favorites. Love the new Tropical Teal!
I’m excited for the new colors and all that you’ll create with them! The tropical teal is beautiful!
What a fun theme for SAF!! I can’t wait to see what these girls come up with! And tropical teal looks like it’s going to be my favorite color….and I can’t believe I’m going to win stamps for a year! You guys are so sweet 😉
I have never joined the stamp-a-faire, but sounds like fun, maybe I will have to see if I can join this year. I do not have a favorite era, but see what all the designers have should be fun!
I just love the new color so glad to hear that there are going to be more coming out.
Looking forward to Stamp-a-faire! Love the clean design images of the 50s and the mod colors of the 60s. I can’t wait to see what the DT will do with this year’s theme. 😉
It is so interesting to see the inside of the warehouse where all the supplies live!! Can’t say I have a favorite era, will enjoy seeing what u come up with!! Love the new color and always enjoy Stamp-a-Faire!!
I grew up in the 60’s so hoping this decade will be represented during Stamp-a-Faire! It will be fun to see all of the projects and inspiration! Lovin’ the new color … looks like a great addition to the lineup!
I love the time travel theme and can’t wait to see with what you came up in august!
Fun idea! Love the new color! Although I can’t say it’s my “favorite,” I think it would be fun to have the 70’s represented for Stamp-a-Faire! Thanks for the opportunity to win!
All I can say is I’m overwhelmed by all the inspiration from all aspects of this blog … really looking forward to seeing what happens this year!
The Stamp-a-Faire theme sounds like so much fun! I love the medieval era in history. Thanks for the chance to win! 🙂
Very excited about the theme for Stamp-A-Faire this year! I think my favorite era would have to be the 1950’s era. I love the florals, the colors and the hometown family feel of that time…at least that’s my idea of it anyway. 😉
So excited to see how this year unfolds! I’d love to see some of the glitz of the roaring twenties!
As if the Anniversary celebration isn’t chock full enough, we now have SAF details to add to our giddiness! Hold on everyone!!!
The new colors are so pretty!!! I’m very interested in Stamp-a-Fairie..love the theme of the different eras.
I adore the theme this year, especially as I love all things vintage! I love the era from about 1900-1920, when there was so much innovation, and overseas travel meant that more and more we were influenced by European cultures and fashions. A bit of steampunk fits in well during this era too – so many possibilities!
Ooh, I like the time traveler theme! That holds so many design possibilities!
This year’s Stamp-a-faire theme sounds interesting. I would love to see designs incorporating vintage looks of the 20’s through the 50’s. I am hopelessly stuck in the past!
Love the SAF theme and I am anxious to see what you have in store for us. I am fond of the 60’s. And wow I know for sure that new color will be my favorite can’t wait to try it.
Love the new challenge but I first have to clean my workspace to compete otherwise I won’t be able to find stuff within 7 min.
Loved seeing some photos from behind the scenes. When you love a company this much, you are also curious for how things are made, well, I am, hi hi. The new color looks super gorgeous!! Will be looking forward to that, for sure!!
So much fun stuff going on here — I find myself eagerly looking forward to each morning’s post! Stamp-a-Fair sounds like fun and something I would like to participate in. I hope the kits will be affordable. The 60’s era would offer plenty of inspiration — tie dye, bold prints, flowers, fringe and beads?
Thanks for a peek inside the warehouse. Love the new color.
So many wonderful era’s … but I think I’d like late 1800’s, after the Civil War. Why? I haven’t a clue, LOL! That just seems to be the era I find myself in when reading for the fun of it.
I’m looking forward to August 23rd! My favorite era is the opulence of the Russian Court in the late 1800s. Look at pictures of the interiors of the palaces and mansions – enough design inspiration to keep busy for a very long time!
Old Hollywood glamour is very popular right now, why not travel with the movie stars? Oscars, famous moments, movie sets, limos, there are many icon and sentiment possibilities!
Love it!!! Looking forward to this year’s event!!! Totally love the Art Deco 20’s-30’s, I can only imagine what you ladies could do with it! :). Thanks for the opportunity…oh, and the teal? GORGEOUS! Probably my new favorite 🙂
My favourite era is …Tudors because I love Shakespeare, the beautiful handwriting and Henry the 8th made it an interesting time for England!
I can see a new warehouse in the future! Love that teal – it’s beautiful!
I would love see ancient Roman or Greek inspired cards just for fun. If it’s too impossible, theme cards from the 1890s to the 1900s would be fantastic too.
Thank you for the new CS color and I think it’s a very wise decision to leave out the coordinating stuff like buttons and ribbons for now. I don’t use them anymore and just love any colored CS you release.
I love your SAF travel theme too! Very original!
How is it that PTI can make me look forward towards the end of summer?! I have really enjoyed participating in SAF and this year will be no exception!
I think the new teal is gorgeous! I can’t wait to see what other new colours are in store for us….
I love the time travel theme and can’t wait to see with what you came up. Love the new color.
Oh my Stamp-A-Faire this year sounds awesome!! I have truly enjoyed being able to participate in the past ones. It is such fun to “hang out” with the women of PTI for the day. I am loving the theme this year! I love the 1800’s! Looking forward to the coming year with you all!!
I love the time travel theme. How about a turn of the century, and I do mean the 21st 😉 So many changes with technology, communication etc. The 2000’s haven’t been all bad 😉
Wow. The warehouse looks amazing! So does the new color. Can’t wait for Stamp-a-faire this year!
Stamp-a-Faire is one of my favorite summer things to do! I was really proud of myself for completing every challenge last summer.
I’d love to time-travel to Phoenicia in it’s heyday or the Viking era.
The beginning of our country’s independence – 1776.
Thank you for all the inspiration and love the new color! Beautiful!
Tropical Teal is beautiful! I would like help designing scrapbook pages for either the 1940’s (my parents’ era) or the 1970’s when I was a bell bottom-wearing teen!
Thanks for the chance to win!
You know… I’ve yet to try a timed challenge. This should be fun! 🙂 The teal is beautiful. Can’t wait to get my hands on it! 🙂
Love this year’s Stamp-A-Faire theme! The victorian era would have to be one of my favorites. I love the big old houses and lots of ruffles & lace.
I love the time travel theme. This stamp-a-faire will rock!
Love the theme for Stamp-a-Faire! What a great way to learn more about design through the eras. I am a rebel at heart and intrigued by Early Modern, 1900 – 1940. Thank you for my new favorite color, Tropical Teal! Luscious…can’t wait to add it to my collection. Happy Anniversary, PTI.
Oh my the stamp-a-faire sounds so exciting. Travel is such a great theme, would be fun to see the Victorian era, those were some difficult times to live in but such an elegance as well!!!
Looking forward to the wonderful inspiration!!!
Love the new teal color. It is just beautiful. I think the travel theme is fun and can’t wait to see how the DT interprets all the different eras – don’t really have a favorite era.
Stamp-a-Faire is such a super event! What a great theme! I can’t wait to see the madmen era and the 1960! Such fun design concepts from that time!
Thanks for the chance to win!
Thank you so much for the opportunity (once again) to win a year’s full of free stamp sets – the most generous giveaway I know of. Love the theme for Stamp-a-faire. Your warehouse may be full – but it sure looks neats and organized. 🙂 Thanks for all the anniversary fun.
Teal!!!! Yay! So excited for Stamp-A-Faire too.
FANTASTIC!! Loving the theme!! I think my favorite would be the Victorian era and would be elegant and lovely. Then again…the 60s/70s could come out with some very funky and fun stuff too. 😀 Either way it’s sure to be a BLAST (from the past!) 😀 can’t wait!
It is so hard to decide on an era that I like the best. If I had to choose a favorite it would be the Mayan culture. But I kind of think native american culture would be a close second. Thanks for this fabulous opportunity.
That will be a fun Stamp-a-Faire. Very exciting!
Oooo – definitely want to play along with this challenge! How fun!
Time Travel? Sounds like fun! Can’t wait to see what you have in store for us.
What a gorgeous new color! I also love the peeks at the warehouse…it feels so “behind-the-scenes”! 🙂
I just love Stamp a faire. I live in Holland so it is so easy to join the fun. I love this years idea. I really like the ” simply Jane” time. Maybe some houses in that style or vehicles or…. ah well.
My favorite error in history would be the Victorian error. I could definitely see some cards full of lace, pearls and charm modeled after this time period. The Stamp-A-faire sounds very interesting and I can’t wait to see what activities you come up with. You guys are the best at knowing how to get those creative juices flowing!
Renaissance/medieval or the Roaring 20’s. Sounds like a fun theme! I already put it on my calendar. 🙂
I’ve added Stamp-a-faire to my calendar and I hope to be able to keep the date free from other obligations. I loved participating last year!
My favorite historic era… Well, as a historian it is like asking me to chose a favorite child. But Early Modern Europe (1350-1600) holds a special place in my heart.
This is a tough one! I guess, I would have to say the 40’s because of the fashion of that era.
Love that Tropical Teal color–so vibrant! I think the Stamp-a-faire theme is going to be an interesting one–I can’t wait to see what eras we go through and how that is represented on cards!
Stamp-A-Faire sounds so amazing this year!!! I can’t wait….So happy to see the new color too!!!
Keep up the great work PTI…you guys Rock!!!
Great challenge, and what a beautiful new color!
Looking forward to Stamp-a-Faire. One of my favorite periods of time is the early 20th century, the time of Anne of Green Gables.
I’m also looking forward to using the Tropical Teal color, especially with fall and Christmas cards.
What a fabulous theme for this year’s SAF! I can’t wait to see what you do with the Art Deco era, that’s my favorite! The new teal is stunning; can’t wait to create with it! What a wonderful anniversary this is!
Love the new colour too – teal is my favourite.
Looking forward to seeing what 2014 Stamp-a-Faire theme has in store! The new color is great. One of my favorite eras I would like to see is the 50’s! Thanks for all the inspiration and great products!
What a fun plan. I really prefer the clean lines of art deco, but enjoy dabbling in collage and, water color and vintage look, among others. It depends on my mood.
Love the new color! Wish I could do these contests but I don’t have time to get a card done, photographed, edited and posted all in the same day!
Stamp-s-Faire sounds fabulous. It would be a tough choice for my favourite era … a tie between Victorian and the time of Jane Austen. Love them both. Thanks so much for a chance to win. Cheers.
Oh – LOVE that new color! Just gorgeous!!! And that sounds like a super fun challenge! LOVE setting a timer while I craft!
If I can only pick one era I’d say Art Deco of the 20s. But the 60s, or classic 40s sure would be fun, too!
I would love to see the 20s, 30s, and 40s represented. I feel like this is an era I should have been born in. People always tell me I’m an old soul.
The SAF event should be a lot of fun! I look forward to seeing what each of the designers pick for their favorite era! For me it would be the 60’s–I love tie-dye! The new color looks wonderful and thank you PTI for all of the great products you produce!
Love the concept for Stamp A Faire. Can’t wait to participate.
2014 is going to be so exciting! LOVE the new color, and I already have Stamp-A-Faire on my calendar! I’d be happy seeing any era, but I’d probably go with 40s and 50s, or way back to Greek and Roman architecture just for fun! Thanks PTI!
I love the time travel concept – and I like the styles of many eras. It’s too hard to choose, so I guess variety is my wish!
And thanks for sending the emails about your 7th anniversary….
Yowza, love love love the new color! Can’t wait to see DT creations using it!
I would love to see the 20s, 30s, and 40s represented. I feel like this is an era I should have been born in. People always tell me I’m an old soul.
The Stamp-a-faire concept sounds like it is going to be so much fun! It is hard to choose one era in history, because I like so many, but I would have to say Victorian.
What fun – unfortunately I have to work late tonight and may not be able to participate – perhaps I ‘ll be lucky with a comment…..Love the new color! Favorite area – that is difficult – perhaps the 20ies or fifties!
Tropical Teal is beautiful! I’m really hoping to see some Art Deco or Victorian style projects for the time travel theme – can we fast forward to August?!?!
Wow it is hard to pick an era to showcaes. I love all your ideas and I am sure you won’t dissapoint us!
Sounds like so much fun! Love the new color…bring on more!
Wow! I love the new color! This years stamp-a-faire sounds like so much fun. I guess my favorite time in history would be the late 1800s.
Such a great theme! I think a “future” era would be fun to see. I’d love to see the different cards people would come up with – they could all be so very different. 🙂
Oh give me a home where the buffalo roam…..sign me up for living on the prarie! Can not wait for SAF.
Love the idea of time traveling. My favorite era is Regency.
Love the SAF theme for this year! My favourite era of history (for stamping purposes and just for the sheer fun of it) would have to be the 60s and the mod look/free love frenzy. Not to forget the amazing music of this era!
I actually got a tear watching that video! It had been such a long previous year. I need a new PTI shirt for this years photos! I can’t wait! Yay!
Such a beautiful color to add! Very excited!
Boy would I love to spend 7 minutes speed shopping in that warehouse! Amazing! I would love to see how the warehouse grew over the past 7 years.
Fun challenge! Good thing we have sketches and recipes to work from!
I can not wait to craft today! I think PTI festivities are my favorite times to take mini vacations to join the fun!
Another awesome give away! So generous! I’m so glad PTI is doing so well!
Time travel – what a fun theme for this year’s Stamp-A-Faire!! I don’t have a favourite time period but it will be exciting to see how each of the design team interprets different eras. The new teal colour looks gorgeous too!!
Awww, I wish I could Papertreyink products from a retailer here in Germany/Europe. You have some beautiful goodies (I liked your recent doodlie-do stamp set a lot).
Love this years Stamp-A-Faire them. Who doesn’t love to travel even virtually! I think I was a cowgirl in a former life. I am also loving the new color Tropical Teal – can’t wait to add it to my collection.
Interesting theme for this years stamp a fair. The date works out better for me-haven’t been able to participate past couple of years because it coincided with my grand baby’s birthday. Also, the new color looks yummy!
I love Stamp a Faire it means we can all craft together no matter how far apart!
Loving the new colour!
Love the theme for Stamp a Faire this year. I can’t wait for the 60s Mod designs!
I’m not familiar with stamp-a-faire, but it sounds interesting! I think the popularity of Downton Abbey would make me choose the 1920’s as an era gone by to revisit.
I think my favorite part of this post might have been the peeks inside the warehouse! Perhaps a little video tour on Monday it Monday would be fun – instead of making a card we’re making an order. As for time travel, I’m thinking it would be fun to have some patterns for the cover plate pieces (hexagons, circles, etc) that mimicked textile prints from the different eras.
That sounds like fun! Can’t wait since last years stamp-a-faire was so fun! Hoping to see some inspiration from Regency England!
Gorgeous new color! Would love to participate in the timer contest but I’m currently out of town. But as you can see, I still try to keep up with doings at PTI HQ!
this year’s stamp-a-faire theme sounds so fun… i haven’t been able to participate so maybe this year will be the time! the new teal color is lovely!
Great theme this year! My favorite era would be the 1940’s. I love the fashion and the music, Can’t wait!
I love the theme of Stamp-a-Faire 2014! I would like to see the fifties represented with some fun retro designs.
HOLY MOLY! I am sooo super excited for the 7th anniversary festivities!! Yay!
What a wonderful new color. Stamp-a-Faire sounds terrific! I like simple elegance so I pick the era of Jackie Kennedy and Audrey Hepburn (mid to late 50’s early 60’s). They were both so stylish and elegant.
I love the Teal!! What a beautiful color!! I’m excited about Stamp-A-Faire – I’ve never participated before!!
I think the 1980’s would be a GREAT era since it’s very in style right now. Bright colors & funky designs! Can’t wait to see what you all create!!
The new ink color is sooo beautiful!! Love the very cool idea for Stamp A Faire, too! Always so many exciting and wonderful things to look forward to with PTI! Thanks so much for the awesome anniversary festivities and all the chances to play along and win!
LOVE the theme, can’t wait! Also, can’t wait for summer, too … it’s -2 actual temp and much lower with windchill here in Chicago today.
I’ll be interested to see… My favorite era is the 80’s
But I’m not sure how I would stamp it (other than neon colors)
It will be a great learning experience to see east others create in all eras.
What an exciting event this will be! It will be hard to wait. I, like many, love the Victorian era. The romance, frills, lace, feathers and layers of that era intrigue me.
So excited about Stamp a Fair. I really like the new color reveal. I hope to join in the timer challenge today too. My favorite era has been the Civil War era in the Old South–fancy plantations, ruffled dresses and petticoats, southern charm and manners. I like early to mid 1900s styles too.
What a gorgeous new color! Love it!
I’m excited about Stamp-a-Faire 2014! I love that all PTI lovers can participate virtually. The time travel theme is intriguing. Art Deco is my recent favorite. Loving that you’re asking customers for ideas. Thanks, PTI!
Oooh time travel! Cave paintings maybe? Oh wait that’s my drawing skills. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with. Love the new color, it makes pinefeather more appealing too.
So exciting!! Love that teal color, can’t wait to see more. Happy anniversary everyone!!
Yes! More colors! (LOVE). Packing bags for Stamp A Faire! (seriously, though, a PTI cruise would be nice!) Hurry August!
Sigh, that teal is such a gorgeous shade. Can’t wait to have it in ink and card stock!! I hope to get a moment to play along with the challenge today. Fingers crossed!
Love the new Tropical Teal color! My favorite era visually would be the Impressionist painters late 1800s, and then Art Deco.
I love the new time-travel idea … I personally am a big fan of the Greco-Roman period! It may be less stamp-versatile than the Victorian era, but it still has an air of romance that surrounds it. Keep up the great work PTI team!!!
Just reserved the date with the group we participated with last year. Can’t wait to have another fun day with a travel theme.
I don’t know how to edit, but I forgot to post my favorite era. I’m going to say the 1800’s. I know that seems odd because it’s not as defined as other times. But it was clean and simple, and there was the start of the Philly Flower Show which is amazing! So a tribute to all things floral thru the years would be awesome!
I love the theme and have no doubt the inspiration and challenges will be awesome!
This is a fun challenge! I love the theme for Stamp-a-Faire. Very unique. As a child of the 80s I would love to see that.
LOVE the Tropical Teal!!!
Love the theme and would love to see the 70’s Disco era represented 🙂
Oh so many exciting things ahead. Love the new color too. I’ve wanted this color for a long time now.
The theme for Stamp-a-Faire sounds like soooo much fun! My favorite era would have to be the 1950’s. I love anything vintage and that era had solo many darling features. Would love to see more stamps from that time frame.
I like the time traveler theme. I would like to see projects from pioneer era.
I think this year’s Stamp a Faire theme is so cool and very challenging for the designers. I have always been in love with the American west era in history (1860’s to 1900)
You are making this so much fun this month! Thanks!
LOVE the new teal cardstock color – I’ll be ordering some to use for my upcoming wedding for sure!! Very excited about what is to come this year, and the Stamp-a-faire event is definitely going on my calendar so I can participate 🙂
I love the roaring 20’s. I hope to travel to DC soon to visit some historic museums.
I love new colors
The Tropical Teal color looks gorgeous! Fun anniversary celebration!
Love everything today! Looking forward to August and time traveling! I think the 50s will be fun to see!
I’ve never done a timed-card, so I will have to give this a try! 🙂 I love the Victorian era with the soft colors and doilies and such.
Tropical Teal is a lovely new color. Hooray! My favorite era is turn-of-the-century, Edwardian. I also love middle ages, knights, ladies, destriers, etc.
I think my favorite era would be the art deco inspired roaring twenties! I like clean lines and simplicity and I think this era stressed those ideas. Love the new teal.Completes the color group well.
What a fun them for Stamp a Faire!! I already added the day to my calendar, I can’t wait! And a gorgeous new color too! PTI, you are the best!
What a gorgeous color!! I’m in love with it!! 🙂
So excited I am going to get my mom to so stamp a fair with me this year. I am so excited also for the new colors they look so pretty.
Love the stamp-a-faire theme! I love the Victorian era and the roaring 20’s. A dress form could be dressed a thousand different ways just with the changes to women’s fashions over the years! Love the new color card stock! Gorgeous!
What a fun idea to do a time travel theme! It will be great fun to visit the past, present, and future!!
This all sounds like soooo much fun! I was definitely born in the wrong era, because my favorite era runs from the Victorian era to the early early 1940’s. I too love the new color cardstock and thank you for all the wonderful chances to win some fun fun product!
Let’s see. My favorite era for clothes is the 40’s. My favorite era for music is the 60’s
My favorite time in my life is the 70’s. I also adore everything Victorian. So any decade that the DT picks is fine by me.
I love the Art Deco look, so I vote for the Roaring 20’s! Love the new Teal color!
Ooooo, that shade of teal is my absolute favorite! Thanks for the new color, and for the chance to win!
Woo-hoo for a new color!!! It’s beautiful! I also can’t wait to see what historical era each designer picks for their SAF projects. Thanks for the chance to win a gift certificate.
What a fun idea!
Such a fun time of the year. I really look forward to this every year.
The new Teal is fantastic, and it was fun to see pics of the warehouse. Looking forward to SAF!
Such a fun theme for SAF this year! I’m looking forward to the roaring 20’s (but know I will enjoy all the era’s portrayed). So fun, this will be my second SAF ever and can’t wait for the reveal of the kit.
Linda
Girls…. I’m just giddy happy over all the ideas and who doesn’t like a new color? I have to say I love the era of the greatest generation… the 1940’s.
Yikes! so much going on at PTI this month! I can’t keep up with all the excitement! loving that Teal color!
Can’t wait for Stamp a Faire and I’m very excited about the new colors!
I think my favorite time in history would be France, in the pre-revolutionary time of Marie Antoinette. So many pretty things!
the new SAF sounds like so much fun! Can’t wait and have booked off the date already! LOL
I am looking forward to be able to join the Stamp-a-faire this year, I have always been out of town at that time of year before but this year I am taking vacation at home, so excited already!! I would love to see the roaring 20’s for a theme.
Love the new Stamp-a-faire theme! As a historian and a traveller…well it suits me just fine! I particularly love the clean lines and geometric feel of Art Deco! Can’t wait to see what you do with the theme.
I love the historic era theme of Stamp-a-Faire. I would definitely choose the 50’s. I love all the textile designs and the colours of the period. It strikes me as a very optimistic time.
I would love to see the 40’s era in the stamp Faire. And I am very excited to see all the new colors!!
Oooo love the new colour! Excited about the news that there will be more colours released this year. Can’t wait…
I am so excited to participate in another Stamp-a-Faire, thanks for sharing the date with us so early, and thank you for all this inspiration! Every single month there are many thing I must have on my wish list and mostly because it is how you and the designers showcase the stamps…all the endless possibilities! Thank you ever so much!
so many ideas and ways to celebrate – really like the new Tropical Teal.
Really like the theme, so much you things can be done with it.
Love the new color!
Time travel-how exciting!! Many historical eras offer great appeal, from ancient history to the Elizabethan era, to glimpses of the future. It would be fun to explore the world of fairy tales, maps, architecture and art history.
Looking forward to what you have up your sleeves!!
Love the concept, and the suitcase for traveling is a perfect touch – sounds like it will be a visual feast and I can’t wait to see what the day (and the team) brings!
Yay! Stam-a-faire sounds incredibly fun and I’m over the moon excited about the announcement of new colors being released! I use the cardstock and ink most frequently anyway, so I love your plan. Please keep the colors coming! (PS…love this fun challenge!)
I love the flapper era, the music, the dress, the dances, everything! And so EXCITED that we are now going to have teal – I think this is the only color I had asked for!
Awesome!! I’d LOVE to win!! What a FUN Theme for Stamp-a-faire and I’d like to be able to host my own party too!! 😉 I think that the Victorian Era or the Flapper era would have been FUN!! I LOVE the amazing clothes and styles of these eras and I think it would have been so FUN to be a part of!! Thanks for sharing and have a Fabulous Week!! 😉
So excited to be able to participate in Stamp-a-Faire this year. I’m thinking the 50’s would be fun. Can’t wait!!!
Time Travel is an incredible theme. I’m looking forward to all of the creative ways the DT will take on this challenge. My favorite era in history is the westward expansion of America, but I think it might be hard to depict in paper crafting. So my suggestion is the 1950s. There are so many ways you can go with that decade.
I’m so excited about SAF and the new color, I think Tropical Teal will be my favorite color!!
I really like the new color. I think that I like the 50s the most. Thanks so much!
Love your Stamp-a-faire theme for this year! My favourite era is medieval, closely followed by renaissance, but I’d love to see some 1920s inspiration too. 🙂 I can’t wait to see what the design team comes up with this year.
Love your new Tropical Teal colour, great choice.
Now I’m off to see what I can grab in 7 minutes…
Looking forward to another year of great releases! I haven’t participated in Stamp-a-Faire before, but sounds fun!
Interesting theme that will offer a variety of creative challenages… Already put the date on my calendar. I’m a sucker for Regency England… although I’m looking forward to “when”ever we go!
I love the theme for Stamp-A-Faire! My favorite time period would be the 50s – so many fun ideas can be found through that decade!
I would love to see the Roaring Twenties era! All of the Art Deco and the elegance!
Fun, fun, fun! On the light side the Era of the 1950’s through the 1960’s had the best TV. On the serious side the days of independence are most important to all of us and those continue through every era. I like the one I’m living.
Looks like another exciting year coming up.
Lots of exciting news, contests and upcoming fun!! Awesome!
I absolutely love the theme for Stamp-a-Faire! Can’t wait to hear more!!!
Oooo . . . maybe this will be the year I actually participate in Stamp-a-Faire. It always looks like so much fun.
Tropical Teal is so beautiful! That color looks great with almost every other color! Great ideas For the Stamp A Faire, too!
The 1930’s would be an era I would like to revisit!
The Stamp-a-Faire sounds really fun. If I could time travel, I would love to see ancient Rome and Egypt.
I LOVE this years theme!! Can’t wait:)
Oh, this theme sounds amazing! I’m sure the Victorian era will be my favorite, followed by the 20’s and the 50’s! Can not wait!!!!!
Like the time aspect of Stamp-a-Faire. Think my favorite times would be the 20’s or 50’s. Looking forward to seeing who picks what time frame. Should be very fun.
Oh how I love the new color! I can’t wait for Stamp-A-Faire! It is always such a fun day and I return to the projects many times for inspiration. Time travel is going to be so exciting, can not wait to see what is in store!
I love the theme to this year’s Stamp-a-Faire!!! Traveling back in time is always a favorite theme in literature for me, so why not in paper crafts?:-) I love the Baroque period,it’s music and architecture and style are very intriguing.I am very excited to see what this years event brings!
Love the idea of traveling in time. My favorite era is Victorian.
It will be fun to see what the design team comes up with for each era. My favorite has to be 50’s, early 60’s.
Love the new Trop[ical Teal and am looking forward to the Time Travel Stamp-a-Faire!
Oh my goodness! Lovin’ all of these fabulous announcements! The time travel them for Stamp-a-faire sounds like so much fun! Can’t wait!!! And I absolutely LOVE the new Tropical Teal color!!!!! GORGEOUS!
….mmm..choosing a favorite era. I would have to say it is a tie between the 20’s and the 5o’s… each with unique innovations and influences on our society. Love, love the idea of TIME TRAVEL. What a wonderful way to remember and/or learn about the impact different generations and happenings has on “we, the people”.
Can’t wait to be involved.
So much fun!!! I can hardly wait to see all the great ideas. New color is sooooo lovely!
Loving the Stamp-a-Faire theme! So excited for summer now! Papertrey Ink are my favorite stamps. I always look forward to the inspiration from the design team. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!
Great theme! I love the Gone with the wind southern belle era. And I am also in love with tropical teal. Can’t wait!
I love traveling and I love history. Getting inspired to use both in my craft projects is something I am looking forward to.
What a difficult question – but I would chose the Victorian era. Speaking of love – the new color is just gorgeous so that will be on my “have to have” list!!
I just love the new color! I’m already dreaming what I will make with it. You girls are awesome to pick a “Time Travel” theme. What fun!
I am eager to participate in this year’s Stamp-a-faire. I would have to say I am partial to the Victorian Era with all its lace and doilies. Tropical Teal is a beautiful new addition to the color line.
Love the new color! I’d love to participate in Stamp-a-Faire this year. Thanks for the chance to win!
I’m really hoping to participate in Stamp-A-Faire this year. Love the new teal color! Favorite era–maybe Victorian as I love elegance & as a contrast the wild west.
It will be exciting to see all the different eras represented. (I don’t have a favorite, so I will just enjoy them all.)
Sounds like a ton of fun! Gorgeous new color too!
Can’t wait for stamp a faire! And loving the new color 🙂
Looking forward to taking part in stamp-a-faire this year. Loving the new teal colour!
fun stuff going on for your 7th anniversary – love the new color
So many wonderful things going on for this anniversary celebration! Congrats on seven years!! Not sure I have a favorite era, but it would be fun to see how the era with knights, castles, damsels in distress, Lords and Ladies etc. is handled. Thanks for the chance to win!
So much fun stuff going on!! Wow what generous contest prizes. You gals are the best!! Love the new color.
Congrats on 7 years!!! Woo hoo!
Loving this theme…..I would love to see the 70’s or 80’s represented. Looking back on those times now bring back fun and hilarious memories.
My first Stamp-a-faire… I’m so excited! (Been a fan and customer for many years )
Oh wow…I cannot wait to own that Tropical Teal cardstock. It’s beautiful! Also, Stamp-a-faire sounds like so much fun again. My favorite era would be the more historical wagon train days. I love the simpler style warmth (at least perceived) of that era.
Todays challenge is fun….and the new Teal – I love it.
already on my shopping list.
I ♥ the new color! It’s vibrant and saturated goodness.
Job well done Papertrey designers.
I am in love with the teal. Thanks for the chance to win. You are so good to your customers.
I love the new color it is definitely a perfect addition to your color family.
I really like the new teal color! Beautiful! As far as an era, the 1920’s would be the one I would like to see included. Thank you for seven great years!
Some fun and funky 80’s designs would be neat, but I also wouldn’t mind some brave knights rescuing a fair maiden from the fire breathing dragon. (Or maybe just playing with a cute baby dragon?)
Lot of fun going on!
i can’t wait for stamp a faire. it’s too fun.
Hmmm – my comment disappeared before it posted. I only wanted to be one of the hundreds who love the new teal color. And I’m looking forward to seeing what this talented group of people will come up with in 17 minutes of crafting!
Oh my goodness…so much fun stuff going on! Wow! I love the stamp a faire and the theme this year! My favorite era would be Victorian…love the houses, decor and of course the big poofy lacy gowns!! Thanks so much PTI!!!
I am so excited about the SAF theme! I really will love the Victorian era! 🙂
Looking forward to summer already! What a great theme you have chosen for this year’s Stamp-a-Faire!
Congratulations on this milestone anniversary!
This anniversary celebration is so much fun! I can’t wait to see the rest of the new products. I’m very excited about new colors.
I really like the time travel theme. So many possibilities. I’d probably pick the Victorian era, but I like anything vintage. I can’t wait to see what your designers come up with.
I would love to see a Victorian theme, that would be terrific. I hope you will have a combo pack for the new color, with a coordinating paper pack with the three colors, the new one, Pinefeather and Hawaiian Shores. Such fun!!

Love the Time Travel theme for SAF this year! As my house was built in 1933, I’m hoping one of the Designers chooses an Art Deco style to create a project! Thank you in advance!
Love the new color! The SAF theme is great – I’d love to see Mid-Century Modern included.
What a great idea for the Stamp-a-Faire!! I like the Victorian Era, but also the Roaring Twenties!!! Sounds like fun!
Would love to see the early 1900’s, not sure what that era is called though!
I’m excited to try this challenge out! This is such an awesome color~
I think the 60s is probably the mosy fun era. Wish I could participate, but since it’s during summer vacation, who knows where I’ll be? Not inside anyway, unless it’s raining!
I am always so excited to join in the fun of Stamp-a-Faire because my BFF and I always get together for this event. We were one of the lucky ones to attend the 1st Stamp-a-Faire in Cincinnati. It was so much fun….I think I would like the Victorian era and the 60’s cause that is my era.
Stamp-a-Faire sounds like a fun day. I am most excited about the Victorian Era.
I love the art deco idea it’s so Gracie
I would LOVE to see THE VICTORIAN ERA this summer; with the Fans, Flowers, Gibson Girl Hair Styles, Clothing/Hats, Doily’s, Delicate China/Tea, Manners & Calling Cards!!!!!!!!!;)sigh!!! LOVE IT ALL!!!!!!!!:)
I’m looking forward to Stamp-a-faire. My favourite era would Art Nouveau. Anything reminiscent of Aubrey Beardsley would be lovely. Although Art Deco comes in a close second.
Love the new Teal color. I’ve been wanting some paper yo home with Hawaiian Shores! Stamp-a-faire sounds like it will be a blast, so I am hoping that the 60’s will be represented! I grew up in the 60’s, and it was an awesome time to be alive!
Now that I’ve retired, I will have more time to play. I love your time travel theme. I can’t wait until August to join Stamp-a-Faire for the very first time! Now I think I need to figure out how to create a blog so that I can enter your other contests!
I love the new Stamp-a-faire theme! Sounds really fun and what a variety of designs there will be. I would love to see a 1920’s theme. 🙂
The 60’s. Love the beehive hair, the thick cat eye liners for makeup. 🙂
I always enjoy the Stamp-A-Faire events, creations, & inspiration!
1950s
Wonderful and
fun giveaways!
Love the new
color also.
Carla from Utah
Excited about Stamp-A-Faire! There are several eras that I love, Victorian, Vintage, 50’s. I know you gals will wow us as usual. Fun to see peeks of the warehouse. And I love the new color.
So many exciting things happening! I love the new color of ink and cardstock.
What a cool theme! I love the roaring 20’s, so that would be my vote.
When it comes to visual images and icons, my favorite time is 19th century. I love “Simply Jane” stamp set and would be glad to see more.
Well, I know it’s not that far back, but I’m an 80’s girl through and through! I love everything from the big hair to the neon colors! My hairdresser always tells me “you can take the girl out of the 80’s, but you can’t take the 80’s out of the girl”!
A travel theme is awesome. Any era would be great, I admire them all. Love the new color release.
I am absolutely in love with the Time Travel theme for SAF this year! As for a favorite? I do love the Renaissance and Victoria eras…but I am game for anything! I love, love, love the Tropical Teal color. This has been so much fun and it’s only just started, hasn’t it? Thanks again, Papertrey Ink!
Stamp-A Faire theme sounds really fun. Hard to pick and era but I might go for the 70s with all the really bright fun colors and shapes. Happy Anniversary.
Time travel!! What fun! I would like to see the 1920’s era as the inspiration time. Flapper dresses, feathers, beads etc. Lots of fun things and colors to be taken from that time.
My favorite era is the present! I just love the modern folk art style that’s popular now. I am loving the new color too! Can’t wait to see what else is in store this week!
The theme sounds fun…will be neat to see what the 80s look like…maybe a lot of neon!
As always, your contests are so creative. Wish I could play but off to work I go. Love the new color!
This ‘timer’ challenge sounds like FUN – I am looking forward to playing along! I am a child of the 80s so I LOVE products reminiscent of that ‘era’ (if it can be called an era). Thanks so much for the chance to win!
Oh My Goodness so much wonderful news all packed in one little post. How exciting to celebrate your anniversary with everyone! Thank You!
Precious Hugs
Gloria
Time travel! I love art deco. The Great Gatsby is big now. I was in high school in the mid 60’s, so I love 45’s, sock hops, T-birds (which I drove), beehives, cashmere and tweed. xoxoxo
What a fun contest, good way to get me inspired to create more, faster!
Love the way tropical teal fits in with pine feather. Such a rich combo! Can’t wait to see what other colors are coming our way.
Victorian architecture, women’s long lacy dresses and tie up shoes are included in my favorite “era” with a ‘lil steam punk added in. Lace and trains and wheels-Oh My!
Great news about the date of Stamp a Faire. August is a great time for me. Love the new colour. When was my fave era? I would have to say the 60’s – so many modern designs that have stood the test of time.
What a plethora of information.
The stamp-a-faire sounds like so much fun!
I love the new info about the new colors and new products. Lastly. the challenge is something to look forward too as well!
What a fun idea for a theme for the SAF, I look forward to playing along. Thanks for the chance to win.
A great celebration!! My favorite era are the 60’s. The Stamp-a-faire 2014 theme is fantasic. Excited about it…
Happy anniversary!
Love the stamp-a-faire theme and very excited to hear about new colours coming!
I plan to join in on the Stamp-a-faire this year — it looks really fun and I now know two stampers that live close and love PTI products too!
Looking and following the 7 years celebration everyday makes me a little sad as I just left home on Tuesday feb 5 for New York City and then to Asia, I have no supplies with me and not in my craft room, all I can do is drool over the “daily celebration news” here and wish I could be home to join in all the fun! Happy Anniversary though, I am excited about the event in August, I’ll make sure I don’t travel around that time for sure!!!!
Never really gave it much thought as to my favorite era, but guess I’d say the 50’s and 60’s (mainly because history was not my favorite subject). Eager to see what Stamp-a-Faire brings though as you always knock it out of the park. Tropical Teal is just the color we need to add an extra punch to our creations ~ love it!
Wow, very exciting event! I have never joined in Stamp-a-Faire and I hope to be able to experince it this year. I love the idea of “Time Travel” and am exciting about the new teal color! My favorite era for this project would be Medieval. Thanks for being soooo creative!
Great Challenge and I love the new color! The new color’s are my absolute favorite thing about the release! Color just excited me!
I am in the process of moving and can’t participate in the challenges and it is killing me! (I have been sneaking away for a few minutes each day to keep tabs on the fun!) THANKS for the smiles!!!
Very excited about Tropical Teal! Looking forward to SAF–great theme!
Wow!! This is such a fun, exciting anniversary celebration and really looking forward to this year’s Stamp-A-Faire…how cool!!
I loved the era of poodle skirts and saddle shoes, plus all the wonderful colors appliances were available in. I envied but so loved June Cleaver.
I actually got to play along this time!!
Stamp A Faire sounds fun! Time travel theme – it’s the 50’s that I would love to see. The teal color is just goergeous!!!
Can’t wait for Stamp A Faire again. It’s always big fun!! 🙂 I am beyond in love with the new color!!! It’s been a while, but worth the wait. Hope to see even more new colors soon!!!! 🙂
Time travel sounds fun! My favorite era is probably the 30’s. I know the depression era is depressing for a lot of people but to me it was an epic lesson in what is important in life and how we should all live all the time. People who lived through the depression have my utmost respect. Thank you for the chance to win!
I simply cannot believe how consistently creative and innovative you folks are at Papertrey Ink!! All the best to you! and thank you for making EVERY stamping day a celebration : )
Patti
Sounds like an interesting theme for the Stamp-a-Faire. I’d love to see inspiration from the hippie era – flowers and beads! Love the new card stock colour!
I love the theme idea…my favorite decade the 80’s and 90’s by far. I love everything about that time…the music, the clothes, the crazy hair!! Excited for all the new releases and love the teal!
You always come up with the best ideas for your challenges, contests, and SAF! I can’t wait to see how you represent all the decades. Since I’m old enough to finally be living in the moment and not just talking about it, my favorite will be whatever you depict for what’s happening right now. Hugs, Darnell
How fun–Time Travel! Take me to the beautiful Victorian times. Can’t wait!
Wow these challenges are fun and I hope I’m lucky. Plus,I love teal and am excited about the new colors!
Love the theme for this year’s SAF. Really don’t have a favorite time period. If I had choose I’d pick the Civil War era.
I am so excited for this release! This anniversary is so much fun
I missed last year’s Stamp-A-Faire so I’m really looking forward to this one SO many months from now, lol! LOVE the new ink color – it’s the exact one I’ve been needing! As for favorite era, I think it would have to be the 50’s. Love the music, the graphics, the styles! Thanks for the chance to win!
The Stamp-a-Faire sounds like lots of fun! I think the 80’s were my favorite! I really like the new color you just introduced too!
I think this years theme is fantastic! I am having a hard time choosing my favorite era, but I guess I will go with the 1940s. A hard time for many but there is something about the music and the fashion I love.
I love time travel theme. I would love to see Steampunk Victorian, that is very popular among time travel theme.
I’m liking the theme for this years stamp affair. I think the 20’s would be a fun era to play around with. Lots of bling and fringe. Feathers were also pretty popular then so the Feather set from last month I think will go well with that period. I’m loving the new color and so excited for another fabulous year at PTI!
When I saw the Stamp-A-Faire theme, I was truly delighted!!!
The 1960’s mod theme makes me very happy.
Thanks for the chance to win!!
What an exciting time for these challenges. Celebrating seven yrs of joy and blessings to us.
I absolutely love the new color, and can’t wait for the follow up colors. Just gorgeous and so useful.
I would like to see more vintage for us senior crafters We love color,chuckles, and friendship.We love sending blessings to friends and family, even great-grandchildren. Masculine themes off and on would be good too. …..God Bless You all.
Beautiful color!
I love the idea for the theme. I will be great to see how the design team uses different eras for inspiration. As for a favorite era, that is a hard choice to make. I guess I will choose a classic era like the 30’s or 40’s.
I think the theme for this year’s Stamp-a-faire is such a great idea, Nichole! I’m looking forward to the 60’s theme, as that was a very special and fun time for me (dating myself – lol)!
Thanks so much for yet another wonderful contest! Your generosity is so very appreciated! By the way…’Tropical Teal’ looks delicious!
Do ‘t know what happened to my comment, so here it is again….LOVE the new color-one of my favorites. Also like you Time Travel theme….so many choices there!!! Thanks too for the chance, slim tho’ it may be, to WIN!
Jan
What a fun and versatile theme for this year’s Stamp-a-Faire. I can’t say I have one favorite era… my love for History doesn’t allow me of having just one era :). Although, if I really have to choose one… the 60’s are my decade, I love the music, the love, the flowers and the important ideological revolution that brought us, especially to women, more freedom of thought and speech and, ultimately, autonomy.
Thanks for all these chances to win.
So much excitement going on with the anniversary celebrations at PTI and now Stamp-a-faire to look forward to also, wow!! Looks like a fun and inspiring theme AND a suitcase of supplies; oh I can imagine how cute and adorable that will be! Can’t wait! I think a vintage theme would be great, something outside my box to try.
Fantastic theme this year! I like to create all different styles of cards so traveling through time sounds really “cool” to me. 🙂 Thanks for the chance to win. I too love the new colors.
I’m super excited for the new color!!! Teal is my favorite (right next to purple). I think I would enjoy seeing new stuff based on the victorian era or some steampunk themed items. 🙂
Love the theme for SAF – this should be quite fun! My pick would be the Victorian era – full of fancy scripts, flourishes, Old English engraving. Everything was fancy and beautiful especially for those who had $$$.
Wow what exciting things to look forward to. Like the new color too!
Oh I love the new color!! I think my fav era would be the late 50s early 60s. You know the “wear pearls to do housework meets Twiggy” lol!!
I think the theme for the Stamp-a-Faire is terrific. Wouldn’t it be fun to actually be able to travel through time? I love so many eras. I think maybe the “retro art” era of the 1940s & 1950s would be interesting. I’m loving the new teal color. 🙂
Love the new color!!! And what a fun theme for the stamp-a-faire! I can imagine a asymmetric 80s card already 🙂
It looks like a lot of fun! I think the 1920s is an interesting time.
Beautiful new color! Woo hoo!
I’m a clean and simple gal, so I guess the modern era is more for me – 70’s onward.
I think it would be fun to have inspiration out of the 50’s. A little whimsical.
Time Travel is the best! I love most the Golden 20s…stamp-a-faire will be awesome..Thanks a lot!! xx
What a fabulous and fun theme for this year’s Stamp-a-faire! Love the colours and styles of the 50’s, so hope to see that era represented. Thanks for the fun opportunities to win more of your great products!
Love the theme for SAF! I love the Victorian era. The thirties because of the patterns in the material. I love to make quilts with them. The new color is absolutely gorgeous.
I love the time travel theme! Getting all Doctor Who, timey-wimey on us!
Anxious to hear more about Stamp-a-Fair! Have never participated before, hopefully this will be the year. Sounds interesting and fun.
Looking forward to Stamp-a-Faire! I’ve never participated before but it looks so fun! Marking the day down now 🙂
I have a feeling Tropical Teal is going to be my go-to color this year! Love all the exciting news.
Totally doing this challenge tonight as I will be lucky to have 17 minutes all to myself!
The new theme sounds like a fun one. There is a couple different eras I enjoy. I enjoy the high society of the early 1900’s and I enjoy the wild west era…talk about a contrast:-). When I was a little girl I used to dream and sketch “towns” from the old west and think about starting up a ghost town for people to visit how life used to be.
The Stamp – a – Faire theme seems so cool!! It will be so neat to see how the theme is developed!! 🙂
The stamp-a-faire theme is fun. I will be great to see all of the different era’s celebrated with paper and ink!
Off to get my timer set…
I love the theme of the Stamp Affair! My favorite era of history is the mid-1700s in Scotland because of the novel Outlander by Diana Gabaldon which is currently being filmed into a 16 episode mini-series on the STARZ network. Epic love story!
Time travel…What a great idea! Love the new color.
My favorite era in time is the 1940s. The clothes were so beautiful.
Fun challenge….I hope to get a card done tonight! Tropical Teal is gorgeous!!! Can’t wait to get my hands on it!
What fun is in store. I love the time travel theme and the 1940s would get my vote.
Great theme! I don’t know much about a lot of the styles, but can’t wait to see what the design team comes up with. I think Art Deco may be my favorite one to play along with.
I too am a child of the sixties. While I love where technology has taken us, sometimes I miss the simplicity of that time. I love the new color!
I have to admit that when I saw “time travel,” I thought Dr. Who, TARDIS and Daleks. Since I don’t think that’s what you have in mind, I’ll have to pick the Roaring 20’s as the period that interests me most.
Love all the inspiration that comes out of Stamp-A-Faire. I would love to see the Roaring 20’s!
Happy Anniversary ! I love the Stamp-a-Faire themes. I think the 80’s were kind of fun, and I was so much younger then. Thanks for the chance to win.
First of all, that teal color is gorgeous! A must have for my collection. Also, I think the theme for SAF is great. I cannot wait to see how the amazing DT incorporates various time periods.
I think this year’s theme sounds really fun! The era I’d like to try to create from would probably be the 80’s or the Mad Men era, because it’s completely out of my comfort zone. 🙂
My favorite era is the 1800s. I should have been a pioneer! When I think of card elements that might reflect that era, I think of quilting and calico and teacups and homey rustic touches. I don’t know if the pioneering era will be represented in Stamp-a-Faire 2014, but I can’t wait to see what the design team has to show us!
Can’t wait for the new color and the Stamp-a-Faire, it would be my first 🙂
I like all the eras, but definitely would love to see something Victorian. I love lace and fancy things- We all know what designer would embrace this era.
I’m so excited for the new color! I can’t wait to add it to my collection. I love the theme for this years stamp-a-faire. I can’t wait to see what you guys come up with!
Love the new color! Hope to see it in felt too. Can’t wait to see all the projects done from the Stamp-a-Faire!
For me, there was something very special and magical about the movie “Somewhere in Time”. I had to look it up and it turns out that the bulk of the movie took place in 1912. Would love to visit that time…sigh
Love the new color!!
I think a 50’s themed event would be so much fun! Looking forward to it already!
Oh I love Stamp-A-Faire! I think I’d be really interesting to see what everyone could do with the Colonial/Revolutionary War period. I’m seeing a lot of Kraft – Heather, I’m looking at you!
I’m SO loving the theme this year!! 50s is by far my fav era- hope they’ll be represented during the ‘Faire 😀
I love the idea for Stamp-a-Faire 2014. I like the Victorian era and prints and embellishments from that era. I’m very excited about the new color too!
I really like the vivid colors and “modern” design elements that came out in the ’70s. These would be so fun to see adapted to card making!
I’m loving all the anniversary ideas and I am looking forward to all the other things to come!
Happy 7th Anniversary!
Luanne
Love the new color!! So pretty. Would love to see something from the 20s!
Love love love the new color! It’s beautiful!
I love the different decades/history theme. I would love to see something from the 70’s. That would represent my childhood!
I am so looking forward to the stamp a faire and not to mention all the teasers of things coming in the future!!!!
I think the time traveling theme for this year’s Stamp-a-Faire is great! I was born in ’77, so I think the disco era should be represented. I can tell by my parents photos and the music that it was a really good time!
Gorgeous new color..and love the inside view of the warehouse..
So excited already about the Stamp-A-Fair..wow Time traveling..can’t wait to see it all!!
Oh WOW love that tropical teal color!!!
Love the Stamp a Faire theme for this year! I am looking forward to traveling through time and learning new styles. I love the Victorian era and would like to see things from the 20’s to 50’s! Can’t wait!
I think the time travel theme is great; I’d love to see some ancient Egyptian designs.
I really love the Art Nouveau period- a little sleeker than Victorian but not as masculine as American Arts & Crafts. Loving the new teal PTI color, and all the anniversary fun!
I’d like to see inspiration from the 1950s – the pastel colors like pink, turquoise, minty green.
Stamp-a-faire theme sounds fun! I love a little time travel!
What a fun Stamp-a-faire theme! I think the 20s would be a fun era to explore.
I am intrigued by this years theme. Although I grew up in the 60s and 70s and love the bold bright patterns I would have to say the Victorian period is my favorite.
Stamp-a-faire sound like a lot of fun. I am really looking forward to it and have marked my calendar (three different ones so I won’t forget). Thanks so much for all the fun and interesting things that you do for us!
that teal is supreme! time travel is such a fun theme but i don’t think i could create much of anything in just 7 minutes!
Travelling through time sounds like such a fun way to play with stamps I’m most intrigued as to what the Stamp a faire sets is going be! I’d love to go really back the Renaissance would be a great one. Love the idea of new colours too!!
What an interesting concept! I can’t wait to see what you have planned for Stamp-A-Faire. My favourite era (actually a span of eras) is Georgian/Victorian/Edwardian – the Industrial Revolution, electricity, the first car!
In love with Turquoise myself, so super excited about the color – let alone the rest of the festivities!!!!
Fun challenge today! I got to use the supplies left over from yesterday’s printables.
Stamp A Faire 2014 sounds so exciting. I have already marked my calendar.
I think this year’s time travel theme provides a lot of space for creative and versatile ideas. I’m so excited to see what you will come up with. Being a kid of the 1980’s, I would love to see this era represented with for example bright neon colors and fun patterns and fonts.
I hope all of you will enjoy these great anniversary celebrations :o)
Looking forward to Stamp A Faire this year…what a fun theme you chose. Can’t wait to see what all of the designers come up with. And I love the new color this month!
The Stamp-a-faire theme is an interesting choice. I will be very curious how your company and designers represent the different eras.
My favorite time is the late 1880s… Growing up watching Little House on the Prairie really made feel a connection to that time.
I love the time travel theme for this years stamp-a-fare! Can’t wait to see what everyone comes up with.
I would love to see the fifties era on stamp-a-faire this summer. I have many fond memories of that time.
Love Time Travel!!! I am a big Jane Austen fan and would love to see that era.
I love this theme for SAF! I think the Roaring Twenties would be fun to “visit”.
Love the new color. Looking forward to August!
The theme of the stamp-a-faire is a great idea, it will be fun to see all the inspiration that comes from this year’s Stamp-a-Faire!
My favorite is the Renaissance, with all the inspiration and new ideas!
Would love to see PTI’s version of the Roaring Twenties! And I LOVE the new teal–SO
gorgeous.
Ooh, SO excited about the new colors! The teal is a nice addition, very pretty!
The Stamp-a-faire theme is just wonderful. No way can I pick just one!! I am a HUGE history buff and LOVE all the different era’s. So this SAF is right up my alley!
My only hope is we can order the kit in July. I will be “traveling” myself, on a two month trip starting Aug 1. Even though I cannot join in on the actual day, it would be fun to come home and play with all the goodies.
So excited by the stamp-a-faire theme. I’m love the Victorian era, fashion, novels. I’m loving all these exciting days of the anniversary month.
Looking forward to SAF! I had so much fun last year!! I love the theme, too. It’ll be fun to see how everyone applies the different styles! I love the way you’ll be releasing new colors (!!) in the future. I think the Tropical Teal is a perfect addition!!!
Looking forward to Stamp-a-faire 2014 Time Travel. This is a great theme. I love the 1920’s style. Love the new Teal colours too.
Love the new color! And the time travel theme sounds fun, especially the timed challenge 😉 For color and style, I sure love the 60’s/70’s with the avocado, golden yellow, orange, brown… Big flowers… Shag carpets… Thank you!!
Wow! Stamp-a-faire Time Travel. Wonderful! SAF is one of the best days of the summer! My favorite era to “visit” is the super fun 60’s! Rock-n-roll!
Sounds like a fun theme!! Can’t wait!
love the theme idea for this year-already thinking about the funky 70’s and 80’s or the roaring twenties! Can’t wait to see how you put it all together…love the new color too!!!!
Would love to go back to the 50’s…..kinda like A Christmas Story! Such a great era, plus I could see my parents as young kids!
Oh wow so exciting and the therm so like so much fun; I sure hope I will be able to play along. I’m not sure how one would pick a favorite because I think there is value in each era. Although lately I adore bright and beautiful patterns that you might find in the ’60s.
I love your new teal color, it looks gorgeous!
I love Stamp-a-Faire!!!!! I cannot wait, August is too far away!!!
Thanks for the opportunity to win. Love the theme for this years Stamp-A-Faire. Like to see the Victorian era.
With your products in mind and a fun era, I would love to see you do the 50’s. Fun retro colors and graphics would be so cute.
Am loving the Stamp-A-Faire theme. My favorite era in time is the classical era. The intricately decorated pottery, Egyptian hieroglyphics, mythology and those beautiful statues, Classical Greek architecture… to name a few things I love from that era!
I love the theme this year and I think the Victorian era would be my favorite.
What a unique idea – traveling through time. I am certain that the team will come up with beautiful projects. I favor the 60’s but I’m sure that after seeing the different projects from the team, I’ll be changing my mind.
I am so excited. About everything. I feel giddy 🙂
I’ve set my calendar for the 23rd of August! I love Art Deco.
Wow ….loved todays news. Looking forward to that new colour and a chance to win again!
Do you ever sleep? Seems like there´s been sooo many new things already – Congratulations!
Alos, I´m amazed at all the clever and pretty cards that were made in just 17 minutes – I´m not htat fast a cardmaker, sometimes a card sits on my desk a day or two until I decide what is missing – so I´m no candidate for “quickies”. But I do enjoy looking at all the ones tha were submitted. Thank you!
I am so excited and really love this year’s theme…this will be so much fun, just can’t wait!
I love that PTI always comes up with a unique theme and pushes me out of my comfort zone. I finish with Stamp-A-Faire having improved my crafting skills and appreciating my PTI stash even more.
I’d love to see the glam style of the 20’s. I think it would be a fun style to explore.
The Tropical Teak is sweet! Your Time Theme for Stamp Faire sounds fun — roaring twenties could be pretty cool. Meanwhile loved the 17 min challenge — I got my stamping fix and now I need to cook dinner~ Thanks!
I really like the theme for this year’s SAF, so many different possibilities for crafting ideas! That little suitcase design is gorgeous, I sure am hoping that it is incorporated into a stamp set! Thanks too for the behind the scenes at the warehouse, fun to see!
About time teal came into action!
What an excellent theme, I can’t wait to see what the ladies come up with. I hope someone does the 50’s. I think that was a great time to be growing up.
The time travel theme sounds like a lot of fun. I like the 1940’s -the fashions and the big band music. I’m excited that we’ll have new colors this year!
I am loving seeing all the great new product for the coming year and looking forward to every release!
Looks like it will be a great year for PTI! Love all the inspiration you give and love your product!
I love the new colour & LOVE the theme for Stamp-a-faire. I’m so excited about PTI this year. Thanks – you’ve reminded me why PTI is my favourite place to get my goodies
Love the Time Travel theme for this years Stamp-A-Faire. Looking forward to participating…
Great challenge – wish I had to time to participate. Rushing out the door to a basketball game.
Love Tropical Teal!! I think it will be one of my favorite colors. The Time Travel theme for Stamp-a -faire sounds like fun. I would vote for the 60’s as my favorite era. Such a happy time! (Or maybe I just think so because I was there!!).
So many contests! I’m hoping to enter a few cards in the fun time challenge! I love that idea!
I love the idea for this year’s Stamp-a-faire as I love time themes and clocks, etc. The era that I think I love the most would be the 60’s. Just love the music, the dawning of a new time (after the wars, etc). I’m so looking forward to 2014. Congrats!
I like the Time Traveler theme for Stamp-A-Faire this year. I would love to see some images depicting the 60’s era. Maybe some bubble-type fonts for sentiments, or some flower power designs.
My favorite era would be the 30’s :).
I’m a HUGE fan of Downton Abbey so the early 1900’s is currently my favorite era!!! However, I love learning about history so they all appeal to me! What a wonderful theme for Stamp-a-Faire!
Wow! Thanks for challenging me – who would have thought it would be so hard to use only seven items??? As far as my favorite generation, I think it would be the future. I love clean lines, very contemporary images!
I think the time travel theme will be so much fun! I love the innovation that occurred just at the turn of the century, 1880-1910. The railroad, the beginning of silent films, the first automobiles, and still horse and buggy.
I’m looking forward to the time travel theme. I love all the geometric shapes from the 1920’s and Art Deco era.
Oh I like this. Limit possibilities and see what results! As for an era, does Bauhaus count?!?
can’t hardly wait for august to roll around, even though i know it will be here before we know it! i have had so much fun participating in all of the fun activities of past stamp.a.faires! i’m not sure what my fav era is…maybe like the 50s where women always wore cute dresses & cat-eyed glasses 🙂 thanks for the chance to win!
My favorite era is the Victorian era. I just love all the clothing of that era and decor!
what fun. Can’t wait to see what’s in the suitcase full of cool creative goodies!
I think the theme for this year’s SAF is an awesome choice! However, I can’t decided on a particular era. I like the Victorian era, that of the Wild West/Early America, the 1950s, and the 80s. Very eclectic!
The new color is so pretty! Loving everything that’s happening this release.
I don’t really have a favorite historical era. But I could really see something futuristic! Or perhaps the Wild Wild West!
Great theme! Love vintage stuff–probably 20’s or 50’s is my fave 😉
Thanks for the awesome giveaways!
I LOVE the new color!! I can never get enough turquoise/teal shades! I think the theme sounds like lots of fun and since I am an 80s girl, I’d love to see some 80s action during Stamp-A-Faire!! Be sure to play LOTS of Duran Duran in the background!! 😀
Can’t wait to see what PTI has in store for the 20’s-my favorite time period! That new color coming in Feb is GORGEOUS-just what I was waiting for from PTI!
I love to travel so this new Stamp A Faire will be so fun!! I am very excited about the latest color PTI is releasing.
I hope to see some time travel in the 1800’s and the 1980’s. Love PTI. So much fun is found here!
Beautiful new color, cant wait.
Such a clever theme for Stamp-a-faire 2014! I’m feeling the 60’s era might be what speaks to me creatively. From vw bugs, daisy chains and the Beatles rock-n-roll influence it just has so many possibilities. Can’t wait until August!
First…
YAY!!!
I die over this Tropical Teal…
it’s been a color on my wish list so Thank You, Thank You, Thank You!!
Second…
I LOVE the theme for this year’s SAF…
it’s beyond fabulous!
Hoping my plans won’t get changed this year!
And my favorite era…
I have 2 and they’re really close together…
the 20’s:
jazz…
feathers and fringe…
The Charleston…
Gatsby!
And probably my favorite by just a hair…
WWII.
Victory Gardens…
war bonds…
Rivet Rosie…
American Pride.
I love it all.
The hair…
the music…
but most especially the fashions!! 🙂
Can’t wait for the new Teal – Hawaiian Shores is one of my favorites s the new one should be a perfect fit.
!FELICIDADES!
En español tenemos un dicho !recordar es volver a vivir!
me encanta el tema. Mi era favorita son los 20’s 30’s.
Stamp-a-Faire theme sounds like great fun! I love the Victorian era. The new color is adorable! The game sounds like fun too! Thank you PTI!
Can’t wait for Stamp-a-faire! I love travel and I love music! My favorite era is the Victorian era with all the formality, long dresses, gloves, and hats! The Edwardian era is pretty cool too with the knickers for men and the white wigs!
I love the richness of Tropical Teal and I’m excited about the possibilities of more colors being released this year!!
I think it’s fabulous that Stamp A Faire will be an online event again this year so everyone can participate! I know regardless of the era it will be spectacular. If I had to pinpoint an era, I would say I would really be interested to see PTI’s take on the Future! That would be beyond COOL!
Oh, this sounds like fun, so sorry I’ll miss doing this challenge!! 🙁
love the new color – I would have loved to be a pioneer woman…except that I wouldn’t be stamping then!
Love the tropical teal color! Can’t wait to get it! Stamp-A-Faire sounds like a lot of fun! Love the 50’s era!
First, I have to say I LOVE that new Tropical Teal color….YUM!!! I would love to see the Art Deco era represented in this year’s Stamp-a-Faire. Love the bold, geometric shapes of that era!
Love the ornamentation of the Baroque era.
Great theme. It should be a lot of fun to see the designs for the differents eras.
One can never have too much Teal! Great new color. I think I would like the Victorian era with all the ribbons, lace and doo-dads of that time. I would love to see what Melissa would do with that time period. Amazing card projects from everyone today. Super job.
Love the Stamp-a-Faire theme – great idea that opens up lots of fun possibilities – I’m thinking about all the great music from all those different eras (in addition to all the great styles)! Favorite era -hmmm, that’s tough; but I’m going to say the 70’s because I love all the bright colors & bold images that were so common through the 70’s.
I’m excited to see what this year’s stamp-a-fair entials! I like the idea of travle and different eras! 🙂 Thanks for the chance to win.
Excited to see new paper & ink colors coming! Love the new Tropical Teal!
Fantastic SAF theme! My fav era has to be the 60’s. Thanks for the chance to win! 🙂
Already telling my friends to Save The Date for Stamp Affaire! How about around the world including tropical places – great way to end out the summer!
I absolutely love the idea for this year’s stamp-a-faire! Sounds like a lot of fun and I can’t wait to see all the things everyone comes up with!
Can’t wait to celebrate my birthday with Stamp-A-Faire again this year. Time travel sounds like it will be interesting. Love the cute little suitcase.
I can’t wait to see what’s in that suitcase!
I loved the sneak peak of the new greens and I also loved being able to peak in on your warehouse! I had no idea it was so big!
I’m excited to see the new colors. What a fun theme for Stamp-a-faire. I’ll be sure to save the date!
Love the 2014 Stamp-a-Faire theme. I like the elegance of the 1800’s and the funkyness of the 60’s. I think timing oneself to get a card done is a great challenge. lol – won’t work for me right now, I would be unable to gather my supplies in 17 minutes, however, I plan on taking this challenge one day!
The cards in the gallery are so inspiring, how did you get such beautiful cards done in 17 minutes and less???
This will be my first Stamp-a-faire. I can’t wait for all of the fun. Love the suitcase.
I’m loving everything about this year’s anniversary festivities! I wasn’t able to join SAF last year but I’ve already marked my calendar … I’m SO looking forward to the Time Travel theme, what an awesome idea. Victorian era would have to be my fave. Oh and I’m totally loving Tropical Teal, you have the best color pallet out there!! Thanks Papertrey 🙂
Love the theme. I fun 60s mod style would be fun to mimic for the event
Love the theme! Thanks for all these chances to win!
So many exciting things happening there! I really like the new Tropical Teal color for card and ink. Conratulations on your 7th anniversary!
This has been so much fun! I love the idea of time traveling…the art deco from the 20’s sounds so cool!!!
I love the idea of Time Travel and will be interested to see how the designers create based on the different eras. It sounds quite challenging to me and I have no idea how one would even start!!!
Fun Stamp a Faire theme! Looking forward to it! I grew up in the 60’s, but I’m fond of the 40’s.
I think this year’s Stamp-a-Faire sounds really fun! I am especially excited to see cards with beautiful embellishments like vintage lace, etc.!
Chris L.
Every year I look forward to PTI’s Anniversary contests and challenges, what an awesome gift you are giving away today ~ Stamps for a year! Whoo Hooooo 🙂
I can’t wait for Stamp-A-Faire plus all of the new and exciting products you are releasing.
A HUGE thank you for your continuous sharing of creative talents and inspiration!
I would love to see the roaring 20’s represented 🙂
I am so excited that there is a new color coming out this month!!! It will be in my cart on release night for sure!
I’ve never joined stamp-a-faire,but I may have to this year. I am partial to the 40’s I think.
Wow so much happening!!
I love the Stamp-A-Faire idea this year. I’m not sure what era I’d like to see in particular, but I’m looking forward to seeing what creative things you all have in store! Should be fun, as always. 😉
Love the Stamp-a-Faire idea! The new colors are beautiful and I think a variety of era representation is the best idea. I like parts of so many that it would be hard to choose. Keep up the quality product and new ideas that I look to you for! Thanks for your part in the industry of stamps and papercraft!
I always look forward to Stmp A Faire. Can’t wait to participate. DIdn[t get to last year because of the date. Love the new color being released. My mouth dropped open when I saw itl
Thanks PTI.
Love, Love, LOVE the Art Deco Era! Would love to see this era represented during Stamp-A-Faire! Thanks also for the new Tropical Teal. It is absolutely gorgeous!
This is the perfect color. Looking forward to Stampafaire 2014
SAF sounds interesting. Will be fun to see all the different ideas. Looking forward to it.
Great theme this year! I think the 1970’s would be fun to explore.
Love the new color and I’ve already logged 2014 Stamp-a-faire into my calendar!
Really like the new color, and I’m curious about the time theme for Stamp-a-faire. Pictures of your warehouse are interesting! Always wondered how you manage so many different products.
As a history major I’m really excited to see how this goes. I’m fascinated to see all the eras interpreted in stamps!!!
It’s so great to see the new Tropical Teal. I hope you will offer the felt and ribbon at some point. I can’t wait to see the time travel themed Stamp-a-Faire. I hope to see my favorite time–colonial America–represented!!
I’ve been watching Downton Abby and really love all the costumes and architecture of that era. It was an elegant time, at least for the upstairs family.
I love the theme for this year’s event. I’m looking forward to getting together with friends to join in the fun.
The “Time Travel” theme is intriguing; I can’t wait to see what exciting activities you have for us! I love the British Renaissance … so much beautiful literature (sonnets), drama (Shakespeare), and theology (the King James Bible). A drama / theater stamp set would be quite fun. Thank you!
I think the Stamp-a-faire theme is really unique and sounds really fun. I don’t have a favorite era but am looking forward to seeing what the designers’ favorites are! Looking forward to this! 🙂
I love the stamp a faire theme. My favorite era in history is the 70’s and 80’s. I have great memories and love the music and the fashion of this era.
Looking forward to Stamp-a-faire this year and all the wonderful ideas and inspiration. I have my fingers crossed and double crossed that I am selected as one of the winners of the fab prizes for your 10 year aniversary.
I love the 1950’s. The clothes and music of this era are amazing!
Love the new color. Can’t wait to see what else is you have in store for us!!
Love the new color. Hope I can actually participate this year for stamp a faire. Always seem to work that day. Fun challenges for this anniversary. Congrats on seven years.
I am so excited to participate again this year because I had so much fun last year! Looking forward to all of the festivities.
I love the new colors! I don’t have a favorite era but I reminisce the 90s thats not too long ago because I have many fun memories of those times 🙂 I love to see the inspiration from different eras from Papertrey though.
Love, love, love the new color Tropical Teal! My favorite time in history is the ‘Art Nouveau’ period (early 1900’s to the Roaring 20’s).
I think the 50’s were such a fun time. I love all the great vintage looks from that era.
I can’t wait to see the new colors PTI comes out with this year.
This sounds fun! I love the idea of “going back in time”. My favorite period is the 20’s – fun geo patterns and flapper girls!
I’m really excited to see what this year’s Stamp-A-Faire holds. I’m a huge fan of the 1920s, but not sure how that would translate to a card. I’m looking forward to seeing what the designers do with the eras. The new color is gorgeous–way to go, PTI!
I love time travel stuff! can’t wait to see what this year’s Stampafaire has instored!!
What a great theme for the Stamp-a-Faire. I think my favourite era, for the art and music, would be the Renaissance.
I love all the Papertrey Ink colors and can’t wait for the new teal! Looking forward to Stamp-a-faire again too! Thanks for 7 great years of wonderful products and ideas!! Looking forward to the coming years for more.
Time travel theme sounds fun. I’d like to see some images from the Victorian era. Thanks for the chance to win.
Can’t wait for more details on Stamp a Faire! Happy anniversary and thank you for all these amazing giveaways!
Sometimes I get exhausted just thinking of what might be the latest trend. I love this idea for Stamp-a-Faire of looking at bygone days for inspiration. I am hoping for some good guy ideas to go with all the fancy stuff. Thanks!
Great theme that is wide open for creativity. I like the 50’s style and advertising.Can’t wait to see what everyone comes up with this year.
The SAF theme is a great idea and sound like a lot of fun. Between all the fashion and decorating styles and popular color schemes through the different eras, the are so many possibilities. I am looking forward to participating.
I hope this year with our family schedule that I can participate in Stamp-a-Faire! The theme sounds interesting and I can’t wait to see what challenges you have planned!!!
This was a fun challenge. Love the new color too.
Love this Time Travel Theme Nichole! Am so thankful comments can win too. Some of have jobs and no time for crafting during the week. Thank you!
It sounds great 🙂
You have such great ideas for Stamp-a-faire and Time Traveler will be no exception.
Hope the supplies come in a suitcase! Not sure which era would include the wild wild west. Part of me would love that we all rode horses everywhere. Maybe it is the late Victorian Age 18880’s. Love Tropical Teal.
The new colour look cool! Excited already for SAF! Fun challenge today too..
Wow! I am amazed at how fast all of you put your cards together. I love all of my stamps so much that sometimes it takes awhile to pick which one to start with. Love how bright the new Teal color is. Can’t wait to see others.
What a cool concept. There are so many great times to chose from. I love the fashion from the 40’s and early 50’s, so something from that era. Also, in LOVE with the new color. Can’t wait to play with it.
I think the turn of the century would be a fun era. Downton Abby and the costumes worn on the first few seasons were spectacular!
So excited that you have announced this year’s SAF. Love the new colour slides right in there perfectly!
I’m loving the Time Travel theme for this year. With so many international customers etc I think it’s a great idea. I’m especially loving Tropical Teal.
Thank you for the amazing opportunity for a year of stamps!! Crossing fingers & toes! LOOVE the new color! Such a fun celebration!
Ooh, I LOVE the idea of this year’s Stamp-a-Faire theme. Time travelling for design inspiration is a super idea! Let’s see, how about Georgian England? Or the Art Deco period, or even the French Impressionist movement? These are three of my favorites and I’m excited to see what everyone else dreams up!
My favorite era for fashion was the sophisticated styles of the 40’s and also some of the fashions of the 50’s. I love the movie music of composers like Cole Porter. Last year was my first year to get to know Stamp-a-Faire. I’m looking forward to seeing all of the projects for this year. Your team is so inspirational!
Love it! I can’t wait for stamp-a-faire! I learned so much last time! It was wonderful! Love the new color as well!!!
Your Stamp-a-Faire theme sounds like fun! I think my favourite era would be the 60’s.
Thank you for the chance to win!
OMG the ideas you come up with on a monthly basis year after year completely humble me! So glad I have been following you for the greater part of 6 and a half years! Thank you!!
Oh that new color is to die for! How utterly gorgeous!
OMG! I’m so excited! Last years Stamp-a-Faire was a blast! Happy 7th Anniversary! 🙂
Love this year’s SAF theme.
Just love the theme this year!!! Although I’m far away and cannot participate I love it!!! My favorite era would be the beginning of the 20th century!!!
Love the new teal color and can’t wait for the stamp a faire 2014
It sounds like it will be super fun!! My favorite era is the 60s!!!
Love the new color!! I really like the new SAF theme. The time period I like would be the 20’s.
Stamp-a-faire sounds amazing!! I love history, so I’m up for any time period! I also love sci-fi, so wondering if there’s room in all the PTI winner for a small blue box that’s bigger on the inside…..
Thanks for all the opportunities!
YAY!! Love the theme 🙂 Everyone is doing such great jobs on the challenge too! So inspiring
I love your idea of going back in history and can’t wait to see what you have come up with! Some of my favorite memories are roller skating and listening to the old 45 records.
I do hope to be able to participate in the Stamp-A-Faire this year. I participated when you had your first online Stamp-A-Faire and it was really fun with lots of learning and inspiration. My favorite era will have to be the present although I’m intrigued by the Victorian / Medieval era.
I’m loving the new color! It’s gonna be a new favorite of mine.
I would love to see how the 70’s are represented.
the retro shapes and colors of the 50’s would be fun!
I was lucky enough to be one of the 200 who attended the first Stamp-a-Faire when you attended in person. The theme for that one was travel and I am sure this one will be fabulous as well. Bring on the Roaring 20’s for me! Cannot wait.
Roaring 20s stand out for me, thanks to Leo in The Great Gatsby movie! Thanks for the oppty to win. What a fun theme for SAF. Can’t wait!
Oh my, I love the new color. I guess the 30’s, 40’s, and 50’s are favorites. Can’t wait to see all the new goodies.
I love all things so this year’s SAF theme is my favorite ever. So creative! I don’t have a favorite era so I am looking forward to see which eras will be represented.
The new color is so pretty!
Happy 7th anniversary!
Love the new color!
Great anniversary treats. Will love to see retro style, 70s era
Hopefully, I will be able to join this marvelous event in 2014. Traveling through time is quite the “journey”. It is funny how time works, though. I was really excited about working on the 7’/17′ challenge yesterday, however, time was not on my side. My philosophy of learning about history, personal and societal, is that we must remember and awe at the incredible things we have done and at those unspeakable ones too. We need to move forward, keep learning everyday, and indeed, make amends to such mistakes. Cheers to many, many more creative history to be made by you, and your incredible PTI team.
I’m very excited about the Stamp-a-Faire theme! I can’t wait to see what you’ve been dreaming up for us! I hope there are some stamps from the time of the Wild West or Anne of Green Gables, that’d be such a treat!
I love the teal!! My favorite color!
Fighting off a cold today and couldn’t get into the studio….love looking at all the cards everyone made!
