Papertrey Ink September Blog Hop



So this is my first opportunity to participate in the PTI Blog Hop. This is our inspirational photo to create our project:


I waited until the last minute to make my card, but I know that God's timing is perfect. I created my card for my daughter to give to her teacher who was just diagnosed with breast cancer. If you can join me in praying for her and her family...

To make my card, I simply cut 1/4 inch cardstock in strips of Smokey Shadow, Aqua Mist, Summer Sunrise, Harvest Moon, Pure Poppy and Raspberry Fizz. For the title, I stamped my sentiment from Mega Mixed Messages onto Stamper's Select White that I die cut using my Double ended Banners die. I seem to be using it a lot lately for my titles. It is the perfect size for smaller titles to help them stand out. I added a Raspberry Fizz button that I tied with twine into a bow. TFL!

  7. What a great card. I love how clean and simple you kept it. And I don't think you could have gotten any closer on matching up those colors.
