For my CAS card I used PTI inks Aqua Mist, Ocean Tides, Simply Chartreuse & Cocoa Bean.
I picked them by looking through the monthly PTI downloads & really love how they look together. The sentiment from the set is gold embossed & matted with a scrap of Ocean Tides. I added some splatters & tiny gold star confetti. I'm entering Virginia's March Show & Share and WAW.
Next is my entry for PTI LFF challenge: Favorite Packaging. I'm hoping a gift card holder will count as I don't have other PTI packaging dies, boxes or bags. A friend gave me PTI Monthly Moments: Journal Card Pocket #1 Die which makes a great gc holder.
I used it with a piece of PTI Happy Spots designer paper that I got for $1 a few years ago. I embellished it with one of the PTI Delicates dies cut from vellum, stacked 3 high & lightly brushed with Aqua Mist ink. The die cut sentiment from PTI Bold Borders: Foliage Die was cut from brown cardstock, stacked 2 high & covered with Nuvo Glaze.
Thanks so much for taking time to stop by. If your blog address is in your profile or comment, I will visit you.
this was so fun to do with you, Greta - we'll have to try it again - and i love my card from you!!
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are really inspiring, Greta. And they are gorgeous! Kisses, my dear friend.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful bouquet with the Cn9 kit, Greta! Since getting my full-size MISTI I've been trying my turnabout sets more as it makes it so much easier than eye-balling the turns. You're getting a lot of us from that Dawn's Delicate dies and it's perfect for your gift card envelope!
ReplyDeleteLove that you and Betty had a challenge with each other. My late SIL and I used to do that all the time, I miss her and those cards. Yours both turned out beautifully! It's great to see the different color choices. And your polka dot bag, well, polka dots...need I say more!!
ReplyDeleteWow these are so cool.
ReplyDeleteLove the colors you chose for the Turnabout wreath - so very pretty! The polka paper is so sweet and love the vellum die cut - I think a gift card holder works perfectly fine as packaging!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely idea and what a gorgeous card, Jo x
ReplyDeleteOh how fun that you and Betty had the collaboration! Your design is fab, Greta! I love the muted colors--so pretty and soothing! So glad that you join the fun with my “Show & Share”! WONDERFUL! ps: Congrats on your Altenew Inspiration Challenge win! That card is a BEAUTY!
