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!

    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!

    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)

    I really like how you made the horizontal pieces of patterns with the paper and then encased your image inside the recessed circle, super darling card!

    It's fantastic Cindy! One of my faves too! And please give us a stamping tutorial one day or just some good advice - my images are not so clear & crisp but I have quite a few stamps & inks but scared to use them as my results are never perfect!
