I received the PTI Guide Lines Two Stamp Set for Christmas. I have so many ideas of ways to use it in my head, but I'm not sure how it all works on paper. I need to stock up on masculine cards, so I decided to put ink to paper and use it. When I finished the card I realized the colors and pattern look very similar to a pair of pajamas my father wore! Well, that must mean I achieved masculine.
For the second day celebrating Papertrey Ink's eighth anniversary, we are challenged to create a card inspired by one of Mailes Belles' creations. So many things about her cards inspire me! For this card I chose her splitting technique, but took a wider approach, and I used her colors from her feather card that was featured as one of the color recipes.
All papers and inks are from PTI. The colors include: Blueberry Sky, Spring Rain, Ocean Tides, Aqua Mist, and Smokey Shadow. The sentiment die is One Liners: Happy, and the stamped sentiment is from Happiness in Bloom.
Thanks so much for visiting, I hope you have a wonderful day!
