My weekend to work so unable to participate in much of the PTI Stamp-A-Faire, but I did get a card made for the PTI August Blog Hop. All 6 sketch & color combo options would be fun to use, but I knew immediately with time for only one card I had to choose the Blueberry Summer Smoothie. Aren't the colors just divine?!
I used a combination of stamps from PTI Rosie Posie & The Sweet Life. I'd had my eye on the canvas/linen impression plate for ages & finally ordered it. The subtle texture on the circle was just what I needed--gives interest without detracting from the bouquet. Decided against adding ribbon & settled on just 3 white sequins for embellishments. I'll use this for a birthday card--celebrating life. This is also my entry for the Something Sweet challenge at A Passion for Papertrey.
Thanks so much for checking out my card & hope you get to enjoy the hop. That's what I'll be doing after work.
Edited to add: Thanks to my friend Carol, I'm also entering the current challenge at CAS on Sunday.
