Papertrey January Blog Hop Challenge

Blog-hop-logo
January inspirationPlato said "Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder."  Today's PTI Blog Hop inspiration is a perfect example.  Isn't it great that we all have different taste? Honestly, when I first saw the photo I thought this might be a Blog Hop I had to skip.  Of course, that really wasn't an option for me--haha! Last night I decided to see if I could come up with something using PTI Watercolor Wonder. When I dabbed Canyon Clay & Hawaiian Shores on my scratch paper they were really pretty together, so I chose 2 images & started stamping.
I added the sentiment from Flower Fusion #8 in Versafine Onyx Black. Still needed something, so added black splatters.  Not sure I'll ever send this card, but it's growing on me--haha!  
Grab our badge:I'm also joining in at Word Art Wednesday.  Enjoy the hop & thanks so much for taking time to visit my blog.

  20. Just love that you went your way with the graphics of the inspiration. And they are fun colors together! Think we all thought the same when the photo was revealed. WAY out of my comfort zone. But like you, tried something new. Your design is neat fun!
