Fortunately, I did make my card for the PTI January Blog Hop last night. I tried out 5 or 6 designs on scratch paper with PTI Garden Gild & eventually got one I liked. My inspiration came from the pink, aqua & gold cones in the bottom right corner of the picture, along with all the white & a birthday theme.
I really am a stamper at heart, not that I don't love using dies. But once again I ended up with a CAS one layer card. The 2 foliage stamps were placed on an acrylic block & stamped across the top of the card in Delicata Golden Glitz, alternating each time. Then I stamped one little flower in Lovely Lady & the other one in Aqua Mist. The large word was stamped in Memento Rich Cocoa with Classic Kraft for the shadow, so I'm also entering PTI MIM.
Very pretty! I love how your shadowed sentiment turned out!

Your one-layer card is a great take on the PTI challenge, Greta! I love your pretty design! Sounds like an exciting storm, until the power went off, and then it's just a pain! Hopefully you've had better weather today! Hugs, Darnell

ReplyDeleteSo pretty Greta! Love the sweet little flowers with the tiny shimmery centers! Great take on the challenge!
ReplyDeleteYour foliage and flowers are so dainty, love that look! I'm glad you prepared early since the weather has been miserable. We're experiencing a lot of wind tonight but otherwise enjoying 73 degrees and lots of sun!

ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty little CAS card Greta, so sweet!
ReplyDeleteI love the delicate, sweet flowers in those soft colors. Clean and simple always makes a beautiful card and you showed that. Glad your storms are over and no damage. We have (gulp) sunshine today and temps in the 50's. I am taking Molly to get her nails cut.

ReplyDeleteYour card is so pretty, you certainly are a glorious stamper. I wish I could get on with stamps, so many stampers get wonderful results, as you have with this card.

Absolutely no reason to face the day without a coffee! Clean, simple, one layer still looks wonderful to me. I like the delicate flowers teamed with that bold sentiment. TFS
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely stunning. I really admire how you took a playful and fun picture and created something so sophisticated and elegant. Thanks so much for playing along at Time Out.
ReplyDeleteLove the pretty border you created in such lovely, soft colors!
ReplyDeleteHi Greta, What a pretty card! With CAS creations like these, one layer cards work just fine. And, can I just say how impressed I am that you did that stamping with an acrylic block. (I wouldn't even begin to think of trying that without my MISTI.) Thanks so much for playing along with our Magic of Beginnings Challenge at Words 2 Craft By. It's always such a pleasure to see one of your works of heart in our W2CB Gallery. :)
