Today I have a card to share that I made for
CAS(E) This Sketch #88 by Donna Mikasa:
And since today is my birthday, I decided to make a pretty card that
sums up how I feel. :)
I used Altenew's Painted Flowers stamp set to stamp my flowers
and a combination of PTI's Wet Paint II & Life is Beautiful stamp sets for my sentiment.
It was almost a one layer card until I stamped the "beautiful" strip and adhered it over top. ;)

ReplyDeleteI absolutely love this card! Could you please tell me what inks/brand you used for this card?
ReplyDeleteHi Tami,
ReplyDeleteI tried to link to your profile, but it's blocked. So I can answer your question here and hopefully you see it....
For this card, I used Papertrey Ink inks in the following colours:
aqua: aqua mist, Hawaiian shores & tropical teal
orange: harvest gold, summer sunrise & orange zest
pink: sweet blush, hibiscus burst, raspberry fizz
leaves: spring moss & simply chartreuse.
I hope this helps!
Thank you SO MUCH Leigh! I've been admiring your card for so long (its been on my Altenew pin board since I first saw it), I finally sprung for the stamp just because I loved your card so much. I really appreciate that you wrote down the inks that you used because I thought those colors really made the card! It seems like PTI ink pads are perfect for two and 3 step stamp sets like these because they are very sheer and thus buildable, I just love that. You have just absolutely made my day!
