I made this card...super late...for Clean and Simple's challenge#135 found HERE:
I used a new stamp I got from Papertrey Ink(thanks Mom:)!!) which stamps a gingham pattern and a flower from another PTI set. The doily design is a die from PTI, as well. It was a little tough figuring out how to make it work...the first couple times I used it, it didn't cut the paper too well. I put an extra piece of packaging paper(really thick) behind the cutting part of the die, and it worked like a charm! I struggled with the sentiment...tried a bunch, but settled on a simple "hello"...I thought it just fit:)!! I know I may be in the minority...but I was sad when Taken with Teal was Taken Away...I LOVE teal!! Oh well....I bought a bit before they stopped making it:)!!
Now, I'll be right in time for the next Clean and Simple sketch....YEAH!!
Things I used:
Stamps: Papertrey Ink Background Basics: gingham and Beautiful Blooms, Stampendous Happy Messages
Ink: Taken with Teal, stazon black
Paper: Taken with Teal, bazzill white
Extras: Papertrey Ink Doily Die, stick on glitter dot, pop up dots
Thanks for taking a look, hope you have a great day!!

Lisa, that is so clean and pretty! I love that striking flower and gingham stamp!
ReplyDeleteI love Taken with Teal too, Lisa! It was one of my favorites! I love the gingham stamp and the flower is beautiful! I'm still trying to figure out how to get that scallop look, much less punch it! I'm in awe!
