With A Grateful Heart

I am having a lot of fun playing with my brand new stamps from Papertrey Ink.  This card uses the stamp set Lovely Layers, I also bought the matching dies, makes life so much easier!

 
Another card for their Challenge #146, Angled Backgrounds.  Kind of hooked on this little technique.  Decided on a black and white theme with just a hint of pale pink.  The papers are from Echo Park, Be Mine.  It is hard to see but I did stamp the large black leaves with a smaller vine leaf with white ink.  Black ink on the grey petals, and a grey and white polka dot center, topped with a black/grey/pink designer brad.  I LOVE that sentiment and hope to wake up each morn with that thought in my head and heart!  I love the layered flower, really could be used for so many styles, Spring Flowers, Poinsettias, etc.  I am sure I will be playing a lot with this stamp and die set.
 
That's it for today.  Guess I better dig out my shorts, just in case the weathermen are right!  lol

  2. You are having fun and each one gets better and better. I have no PTI stamps, just those dies. Do you think that would work for this challenge?

  4. I love this card in black and white! I still haven't tried this technique, but today may be the day. So snowed in and the temps are dangerously cold. Thank goodness we still have our power. Enjoy your day!
