Papertrey Ink 11th Anniversary Challenges

With life feeling quite full right now 

(working full time, volunteering to create the program and certificates

for the Morden Festival of the Arts and having Austin come home 

from Bible College last weekend for a few days),

I haven't gotten to spend very much time at my craft table lately.

However, I really wanted to play along with the 11th Anniversary Challenges at Papertrey Ink

this month, so I decided to make one card for four challenges.

Yes, four.

They are:

1. The 11th Anniversary Sketch Challenge, where I used this sketch by Lizzie Jones:

2. 11th Anniversary Day 4: Floral Challenge 

3. 11th Anniversary Day 5: Retirement Set List Challenge

4. 11th Anniversary Day 8: Colour Challenge, where I used this colour combo by Keeway Tsao:

Here's my card:

(I apologize for the poor lighting! 

I leave for work before the sun is up and by the time I get home, it's pretty much set.

I cannot wait for spring!)

I used my Bloomers stamp set to make my card.

I embossed my background panel with my PTI Book Print impression plate.

I blended some Altenew Soft Lilac ink onto it with my blending tool.

I stamped my flowers onto their coordinating diecuts using Altenew Frosty Pink,

Coral Berries, Ruby Red, Mountain Mist and Volcano Lake.

I also used my Delicata Golden Glizt ink pad and Altenew Jet Black.

I stamped the leaves (from PTI Lovely Layers) in PTI's Limeade Ice and Simply Chartreuse.

I stamped the sentiment (from Fresh Floral Wrap-ups) on a strip of vellum 

in versafine onyx black ink and heat embossed it in clear.

Thanks for looking!
