To a FRIEND

One of the reason I love Papertrey Ink so much are the endless possibilities you could do with their stamp. The other day when I sat down on my desk, I took out all the background stamps I have and immediately an idea came to mind. I whipped up this card within an hour. Suffice to say....this is one of my favourite card :)


Thanks for looking!

  2. This is a great card! I like your creative process, perhaps I should try that! Part of the reason I think your card works so wonderfully is your color choices-so bright and happy!

  3. Yes a gorgeous card - I love the colours too. You must have a good colour ink pad stash hehehe (so do I but I don't use them much ... black and brown seem to be my favourite! I do use the distress inks for blending though)
