PTI June Blog Hop





This month's PTI Blog Hop challenge is to gleam inspiration from the above photo and use it to create a project!  I simply swoon over this color combination.  Isn't it just lovely?



This card was inspired by the largest pillow in the inspiration photo.  I started by creating a panel of Aqua Mist card stock, stamped with New Leaf ink.  I did a partial die cut as well as punch some holes in the panel so that when I mounted it to a Lemon Tart card base, that pretty yellow would show through.


Aside from the hole punch and some Copics, all supplies are by PTI.

Thanks ever so much for stopping by!

      Thanks so much, Terri! I used PTI's Turning a New Leaf, Lace Bouquet, Out on a Limb sentiments, Daydreamer, and In Bloom stamp sets.

    I always love when PTI stamps perfectly match patterns in the inspiration photo! Think they do that on purpose!? ;) Great card!
