Papertrey Customer March Hop


Today is the PTI Customer blog hop! This month is an inspiration photo:


I picked up the colors, and the stripes.  I used Beautiful Blooms II (and dies), along with The Big Series #4.  Another fun customer hop for Papertrey!  I can't wait to see the other entries!  In these colors, the Inlinkz gallery is going to be beautiful~

This next card was my original card I made for this hop.  Can you tell I sorta forgot about the inspiration photo? (whoops)  I didn't even realize it until I started this blog post. (oh good grief) This card's saving grace is that it does qualify for the Deconstructed Sketch No 44.  Phew!  I'm sure glad!  I didn't want to make a card just to make it! :)

On this card I used the same set, Beautiful Blooms II (and dieTurning a New Leaf (and die), and from the Think Big Series, #3.  I really enjoy the bigger fonts -- they make fabulous focal images!


Thanks so much for stopping by~
