Red, White & Blue
Fun challenge for PTI MIM--Ink Blending Through Die Cut Masks. I used the PTI vellum to make a mask with PTI Small Sketched Stars. They're still attached since I like the arrangement & don't want to loose any of them.
My card is for PTI MIM, CropStop & One Layer Simplicity. I used PTI Blueberry Sky for the stars & the sentiment from the new Make It Market kit is stamped in Distress Ink festive berries. The stars are brushed with Wink of Stella & I splattered on Heidi Swapp white Color Shine & Delicata Shimmery Silver. Needed something, so I added a scored frame.
The vellum mask worked great, so I decided to make another card.
I began by inking a die cut rectangle with Blueberry Sky & then stenciled with Memento Luxe Wedding Dress & brushed the stars with Wink of Stella. The panel was mounted to silver glitter paper. For the card front I stamped a panel of stripes using an image from PTI Watercolor Wonder & Adirondack Cranberry dye ink. The sentiment is an old favorite from the Oregon company Peddler's Pack & I finished off with PPP Sparkling Clear sequins. I'm entering Fusion, HLS Anything Goes, Little Tangles, Stamplorations Theme & Sketch.
Clarification: I die cut the stars from a piece of PTI vellum & used it as a stencil for both cards.

Great job with the PTI challenge Greta!! Your second card is a perfect patriotic card. It's not too in your face red white and blue, just the right shades of each!!
both cards are absolutely amazing, greta!!! I have said it before and will say it again... you always make the best cards with the MIM techniques!!
I agree with Rosemary ~ Your MIM cards are always awesome, and these 2 cards are fabulous! I love the arrangement of the stars...it's perfect for your design! Love the diagonal stripes on the 2nd card, too! Great job on the challenge!
Great cards, so versatile could be for anyone. Those are great to have in one's stash.
Great cards and designs Greta, I always struggle with red white and blue combos, maybe I should try a paler blue as that works so well here.

both cards are awesome Greta. Great to use the vellum stars on the second one... no waste for sure
Lovely cards Greta ... I haven't had time to try that technique yet ... Have a wonderful day!
Great use of both the negative and positive (?) dies on both cards, Greta!
Two lovely cards. I kept my stars together too and now I see another way to use them. And I like how you used Watercolor Wonder for your stripes! How clever!
Two lovely cards Greta. Both the negative and positive look great and a lovely patriotic sentiment on the second. Barbxx
Such great cards Greta. You have obviously put alot of thought into these. Thank you for joining us at HLS Anything Goes With Dies. Good Luck! Emma HLS DT member
Awesome cards, Greta!! That was a fun technique! Isn't our weather fabulous? Have a great weekend!!
Both of these cards are perfect in their simplicity, but they are so well thought out and that does take time. Love the idea of using dies as stencils!
Oh, these are so fun! Wonderful takes on the technique, Greta!
These is so super pretty Greta!

Two fabulous cards, Greta. Your stars were a great choice for the MIM technique :-)
Starry spectacular x two! These are fabulous! Actually, I created a card with this technique, too...and used stars as well. Great minds, right?! I've saved it for a down-the-road post, as I don't have enough PTI products to play in their challenges...
