I went a slightly different route this week with my Weekly Gratitude page. When I originally made my album I created enough pages for a year. Then when I restarted the project this year, I started using the digital templates Karen Grunberg created. I decided I need to use some of the other pages as well, and I didn’t have any photograph in mind for this week’s entry. Here’s a look at the album:
And this week’s page:
Thanks, again, Sharyn. Sorry it took me so long to get this done. I’m hoping that all the updates to the blog albums will be done by the end of the week.
Yesterday I got my April order from Papertrey Ink and received an extra of the 2009 Anniversary set they give to customers who buy a given amount. The fact that I got more than one tells me I need to get a grip on my ordering. Nonetheless, this is a lovely set and one you cannot purchase. I thought it would be fun to give it away. I will happily send it anywhere, so don’t let your location stop you from entering! I’ll pick a name from the comments on Tuesday morning, so leave a comment by midnight Monday if you’d like to have a chance to win this. Here’s a look at the stamps it includes:
And you can see examples of cards in the PTI gallery.
Your album is just begging to be flipped through! Soo inviting. Friends who can help out with blog design? Excellent!
Beautiful stamps! Was it hard to do the albums on your blog? I really need to this on mine, but I am also totally intimidated.
I know what you mean about the freebies. . . DH always says, “If the sales people start handing you free stuff on the way out of the store, it probably means you purchased too much!” Happened yesterday after our visit to the furniture store. Yikes!
I’m grateful for books that carry you away and renew your love of reading. Just finished Cutting for Stone and loved it! Thinking about suggesting Little Bee for our next boor group book, but I also picked up Lark & Termite at the book store. Wolf Hall has gotten fabulous recognition, but I don’t think we’re ready for another LOOONG book right now.
This is a lovely set,Karen.I love Papertrey Ink…but sadly you cannot purchase it in the UK….so would love to enter your giveaway.
I was just going to say the same as Jacky S, it’s such a pity we can’t get Papertrey Ink in the UK (unless we want to pay a fortune in postage!). Always a bit worrying when you get free goodies because you’ve bought so much lol!! I love the gratitude for this week, it’s such a pretty page. Hope you’ve had a great weekend. x
Love the gratitude page – great contrast the white on blue and love the swirl.
Your album looks so lovely! I love the mix of colors you chose.
That’s a really cut stamp set.
Karen the album is coming together beautifully and I really like the mix of pages, I was just thinking that mine were all looking far too similar. So, while it is easy to get done with the template the change in shape and texture is lovely to see.
The stamps are lovely Karen …. I’ve never seen PTI here in Australia either.
Awww, I am so glad that I was able to help you out a little bit. The new sidebar photos look so great! They really invite you in to view your projects. And your album is coming together beautifully!
Hi Karen,
What a thrill it was to stumble across your beautiful blog and all your stunning creations. Many thanks for the opportunity to win these amazing stamps – very kind of you 😀

Karen – LOVE the addition of a simple journaling page to your Gratitude Album! And the butterfly/swirls are gorgeous! Is that a digital stamp or something you did by hand?
Fabulous layouts Karen – love the photos of the teacups – those expressions – classic!!
Hugs,

(by the way, don’t include me in the draw hunny, I already have one of those babies on it’s way to me!!).
Hugs,

Your gratitude album is wonderful.
Terrific giveaway too.
Oh WoW! You got an extra PTI set! I missed getting one by one set. You are very generous to share. I enjoy stopping in on your blog. I took Karen G’s BPS Reclaiming your time class – really enjoyed it. Your Gratitude album is great! Thanks for the chance to win!
Wow this is very generous of you! I love the idea behind your album–so so wonderful!
Your Gratitude album idea really inspires me. What a great thing to do yearly! Thanks for a chance to win the stamp set too, that is really sweet!
The album’s lovely, Karen! 🙂 Sadly I’m too late for the giveaway – having had a madly busy weekend I’m only now managing to catch up – but after my win from Al yesterday I can hardly complain! The stamps look fab, someone’s going to be very happy xx
