I am popping in with two more cards to share today! I am playing along with Papertrey Inks 9th Anniversary Celebrations. For this first card I am playing along with a couple of other blog challenges as well.
My first card is for PTI Challenge Day 10. Papercrafting Alphabet. I love the cool chart. Definitely want to play with it again.
I went with the first three letters of my first name. B-E-T. Sentiment on a banner.....my die cut words are on the Outline Banner frames embossed images. E- Emboss Resist. I heat embossed the frames and did a watercolor resist. T - is to tie one on. I looped up some loose threading.
I finished this card with some sequins and it was done. I am playing along with this week's The Paper Players Color Challenge, CASE(E) this Sketch , and Simon Wednesday Challenge One Layer.
My second card is for PTI Challenge Day 8. Color Pop Floral Challenge! What a fun walk down memory lane with this game! My colors are simply chartreuse, royal velvet, and spring rain. I picked 5 and 4 for April.
I die cut and stamped the flower outlines from Vintage Linens using white linen card stock. For the insides of the flowers, I inked the stamp, spritzed with water, then stamped. I did the same with the leaves. For the focal point, I die cut the sentiment page from Black and White All Over pattern paper pad using the stitchable rectangle die. I also used another pattern from the pack on the side. I impressed the spring blue with the distressed impressions plate for a soft distressed texture. I finished with some sequins.
As always thanks so much for stopping by!
