I’m still making cards for PTI’s 6th year Anniverary Designer Inspiration Challenge from Day #1.  And, it looks like certain cards give me lots of inspiration! lol

My first two cards were inspired by Jessica Witty’s “Congratulations” card (1st column, 2nd row):

First card:

Second card:

I made another “A Note of Thanks” card inspired by Cristina Kowalczyk’s “Thank You” card (2nd column, 1st row) using the color scheme from Color Inspiration No. 2.  I really love this design for thank you cards.  I’m thinking a set of these would make a great gift for someone!

Thanks for stopping by!
