Happy Saturday!
Today's card is for both RetroSketches and the April Papertrey Ink Blog Hop!
I inked up for the first time my Papertrey Ink Retro Style Graduation and Birthday Sentiments Stamps and Dies. I chose to use the colours from the Papertrey Ink mood board using this week's new RetroSketches sketch!
I am up to my eyeballs in preparations for a bridal shower Brooklyn and I are having for my nephew's fiance on Sunday. I will definitely say thank you to Pinterest from providing me with loads of fantastic ideas. As much as we do not like the way that teachers' strikes impact our children, I will say that Brooklyn has been an invaluable help to me this week that she was off school because of the strike. For that I did not mind waiting in the store for an hour yesterday while she tried on a purse--trying to decide between brown or coral! Do you want to know which one she picked?
I think a good choice!
Have a wonderful weekend!

Love this! Such a cool card! :)
Such a cute, fun card! I love that cake arrow.
Love how you were able to combine both challenges. I'd take cake!!! and the coral purse.
Love the bold, clean & graphic design, Tracey! I didn't realize you were dealing with a teacher's strike - hope is resolved quicker than the one in BC last year.
Love the graphic design of this card! Fabulously done!
I really love your card - just so perfect. And now I want that stamp set (and that purse!)

I thought about getting that stamp set, Tracey, and now that I've see your wonderful card, I wish I had. It's cute and graphic and clean and colored to fit the photo inspiration. What could be better than that? Maybe a coral purse? ;)

Love your design and colors of this card. Perfect for the blog hop, and really go with the retro theme. I do need to pull this set out and ink it up. Pinning yours to get me started.
