Happy Saturday!
I decided to participate in the PaperTrey Ink May Blog Hop. I got my order Thursday night, Yay!, so I thought - hmm maybe I should make something. Especially when I found a sketch challenge that was a perfect fit with this hop.
This month is a color challenge, so I chose the Pink Bouquet - Raspberry Fizz, Hibiscus Burst, Orange Zest, Summer Sunrise and Ripe Avocado color scheme. LOVE these bright fun colors!
Here is my card. I used the new May release set called "Ruby Rose". There is also a coordinating die.
The base card is Raspberry Fizz cardstock. I added a strip of Ripe Avocado and Summer Sunrise cardstock, which I ran thru the sewing machine.
The flowers are stamped on PTI white cardstock with Hibiscus Burst, Orange Zest and Summer Sunrise ink. I ended cutting the flowers out by hand because I could not find a wire clipper to cut the die apart. I did use the leaf dies and stamped them with Ripe Avocado ink.
I used a sketch today from Freshly Made Sketches #87. Thought it was really perfect for this new set. Love when that happens.
