For my card I chose to go with a lime colored key! When I saw this sentiment in PTI Tulip Time set, I thought it could work for so many different occasions. Of course, I really wanted to stamp the tulips too, but I resisted the temptation and just used the sentiment with a lime key, of course!
I stamped the sentiment several times in black using the MISTI. I die cut and stacked the PTI key 3 times using some sour apple card stock. I used the MISTI again to perfectly place the "congratulations" onto the key. I finished with a few clear and green sequins.

I have a second card to share for today!
For my second card I am playing along with this week's PTI MIM Challenge. We are to do a sponge ombre effect using a stencil. I used Ranger Mini Cubes, Blending Tools, and Memory Box Mesh Stencil. I sponged and layered the Savior die cut three times and inlaid it into the Layered Banner Banter frame. Perfect fit! Love that!
I white embossed the sentiment from the Savior Mini set. I added some loose threading and a few sequins to finish the card. I am playing along with CAS(E) this Sketch.
