PMS Monday Is Faux Silky

Happy Monday! It's Christi here welcoming you to another Paper Makeup Monday challenge! This week's challenger is the amazing Tina with a wonderful technique: Faux Silk. You can find an awesome tutorial HERE. I was in a wedding this weekend and did not have any time to complete my challenge (bad, bad, bad) but I do plan to this week since this technique rocks!! Luckily, the PMS queen herself Ms. Katie let me showcase her creation....Isn't it gorgeous?! Such a wonderful technique! Now here are a few more design team samples to drool over...

I hope everyone can play along with us this week! You never know when we might give away some candy to one of our participants so play along! If you do not have PMS stamps don't worry about it-just use what you have!! If you do have PMS why not show it off!!

Please link up a direct link to your creation to Mr. Linky below (if Mr. Linky happens to not be there for one reason or another just post a link in the comments section). If you upload to SCS/PCP please use keyword PMSMC17 so we can see all of your creations there as well!!

Happy Stamping!!
Christi

P.S.-Anyone hungry for some PMS blog candy? Dawn Barrett is giving away some blog candy RIGHT NOW on her blog! All you have to do is make a card using PMS and any challenge (if you do this challenge it counts! Woot!) or you can do any PMS challenge using any stamp set. You have until tomorrow to get your entries in HERE to be in the running for some Paper Makeup loot! Good luck!!

Tuesday Meet n Greet with Lisa Kind

Meet Design Team member, Lisa Kind!





I was so thrilled to invite Lisa onto the PMS design team. Her coloring skills are fantastic and she just has an eye! Since this is a sneak peek week, i've reluctantly held onto to pictures of a few of her creations just to show you today!!!!







And here's the same 5 questions we asked Shaela last week...

When did you start stamping?
I started stamping around 2003 when my best friend, Maria, had a Stampin' Up party.  I was on and off with stamping until October 2006 when I found SCS.  I really fell hard and never stopped!

What first drew you to PMS?
I was thinking about that the other day.  I think I saw Christi Thorsen using one of the fairies, and I stopped by the store and bought them all!  I'm really drawn to them...they are so beautiful!
 
What's your favorite color combo?
My favorite color is brown, and I love anything that goes with it!

What else do you like to do?
I love to travel with my husband all over, spend weekends at our cabin in the country, read, and shop!

Where do you get inspiration from?
Everywhere!  I live in Western NY, so we have the four seasons, and I get a lot of inspiration from them.  The colors, the holidays, etc.  I also like to look at fashion trends and colors.  And I can't forget to mention the thousands of crafters out there who inspire everyday!

What's on your ipod?
Mostly the Rolling Stones!  I love that band!  I have a pretty eclectic mix of other bands like the BeatlesRod StewartBob Marley, disco (yes, disco!),John MayerThe Tragically HipCarrie Underwood, to name a few.  I like almost all genres of music (mostly classic rock), except I'm really not fond of country or opera!


Now go over to Lisa's Blog and leave her some love!
