I like you.


Yes I am playing around with that new PTI alphabet again.  In fact, this card I made quite awhile back but just haven't posted it yet.

An all white card!  You know how I love white space.  I just ran the alpha dies through several times to get a bunch of letters to create a homemade impression plate.  (Remember my HI card?  I was working on this card when that HI card came about.  I had accidentally run 2 sheets of card stock through and was able to get that impression.)

To get the homemade impression plate, I stacked these die cut letters about 3 high and then ran it through my Big Shot with another piece of cardstock.  I did mist the card so the paper wouldn't rip.  Here is a quick pic of the letters I glued down....


This was kinda fun to make.  Lots of work stacking all those letters but I thought the end result was fun.   I think I would do it again.  As long as the sentiment was less than 3 words!  LOL!  Now I have TONS of extra letters all in a baggie so that is handy to have.  Easy to grab.  Since I may have mentioned I sorta like this alpha bet set.  Which I had planned on not saying....again!  :)

Thanks for stopping by!

    I make my own embossing plates also. I love the letter variation. Thanks for sharing the tip on misting the paper to prevent cracking. :)
