It's the 25th of the month, which means that I'm playing along
with the Papertrey Ink Blog Hop, where this month's challenge is this:
Aren't those shoes adorable?!
I decided to combine this challenge with this week's
CAS(E) This Sketch #129 designed by Michelle Williams
to make a birthday card for my mom:
to make a birthday card for my mom:
Here's my card:
I used my MISTI to stamp my background using my SSS Wide Stripe stamp.
I actually stamped it twice in a pigment grey ink.
I stamped the sentiment (PTI's KIS: Birthday) in Versafine onyx black.
For the flowers, I used PTI's Brushed Blooms, which I stamped with Altenew's Buttercream
& Frayed Leaf and PTI's Orange Zest & Terracotta Tile.
A few PTI rainstones finish is off.
and to play along, if you'd like.
You have until Thursday, July 2nd to link up your card.
