Just Us Girls #675 - Photo Week

Nancy is our host for Photo Week at Just Us Girls and she has a very springlike moodboard for us.

You can see a larger image on the blog.  I was inspired by the top right photo of a garden gate. 

It's been ages since I used this set from Papertrey Ink.  The background is Vintage Jadeite cs stamped with PinkFresh Studio's Floral Shadow in VersaMark ink for a tone on tone look.  The gate was cut in white twice for dimension.  All I had to do was add the Hollyhocks, Bleeding Hearts and the sentiment sign that has been heat embossed with Etched Platinum, all from the same Garden Gate set. 

Which of these photos draws your attention?  Want to see what the Design Team and our guest Joanne did?  Head over to Just Us Girls to see.  We hope you are inspired to make a card for our challenge.

Make It Monday #281

I was excited to see the challenge at Make It Monday because it gave me a reason to use my Garden Gate set again.  Dawn has a video on putting patterns behind die cut windows and you may want to check it out.

I cut the opening with a PPP die and popped it up over the stencil that came with the Golden Gate Market Kit and I inked with Altenew Industrial Diamond.  I die cut the wisteria and stamped it with PTI inks.  The sentiment is from CB in the same gray as the trellis.

It's a rainy day her in Mid-Michigan so I hope to use the time to get a few more cards made.  I hope you have a little time in your day to get crafty.
