Happy Friday!
I have a card for the January Papertrey Ink Blog Hop! I have not participated in the blog hop for a very long time. I was organizing my studio over the holidays and while going through some of my stamps I realized that I had so many Papertrey stamps sets that I bought because I adored them--so no better time to use them!
I took my inspiration from the colours in the photo and used one of my favourite sets ever--Cutting Garden. I stamped some details from Fancy Flourishes in my background and a sentiment from Grateful Greetings. The card was finished off with some clear sequins filled with silver Stickles and a generous coating of the ever so elusive clear 'Wink of Stella'. I tried to capture it in my photos but I think it is going to be the recipient that gets to enjoy it!
A closer look at the layering...
Looking forward to hopping along, the gallery looks beautiful so far!
I think it's safe to say that everyone is having a chilly day. We woke to a wild snowstorm here this morning and this afternoon the sky is blue and the sun is shining but the winds are strong and it is only -21 C with the wind chill, that is -6 F. Staying in seems like a good idea!
Thanks so much for stopping by and have a wonderful weekend!
We're having a heat wave compared to you Tracey...it's 11 degrees here and just a snowin and blowin! So anyway I'm loving all the warmth of the pink and blue flowers along the hop today, and your card is absolutely GORGEOUS!! I had forgotten all about the Cutting Garden stamp set and how pretty it is...lovely, lovely card!! :0)
