Papertrey Ink February 2017 Blog Hop

I'm participating in the Papertrey Ink February 2017 Blog Hop today. You can check out Nichole's blog for all the details.

After following along with the look back memory lane as Papertrey Ink is celebrating their 10th Anniversary this month, I pulled out one of my favorite (and maybe first purchase) stamp sets, Birthday Bash, and my favorite floral set from last year, Peonies on Parade, to make this card.




The peonies were stamped on watercolor paper and embossed with a gold glitter embossing powder before being colored with layers of purple and pink paint. Once I was done layering the color, the flowers were die cut and layered around the gold embossed sentiment banner.




The banner was lost on the Smoky Shadow card base, so I added an embossed white panel to allow the all the gold embossed pieces to really pop.

This card is also being linked to Seize the Birthday in the Anything Goes category and to the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge where Anything Goes this week.


  

Thanks for stopping by,
