Favorite Color Combo



I made this card in preparation for the PTI June Blog Hop. Unfortunately, I forgot about the hop and didn't get it posted in time.

I think I like this layout well enough to try it with other colors. Love this Tea for Two Additions set and the die for the teacup. Guess I'm getting lazy - it would be great to have a die for the spoon!

Hope you enjoy. Thanks for stopping by!

Supplies:
Stamps: Tea for Two Additions, Vintage Labels
Card Stock: Pure Poppy, True Black, Stampers Select White
Ink: True Black, Pure Poppy
Patterned Paper: Black & White Basics, Bitty Dot Basics
Miscellaneous: Copics, Nestabilities, Tea Cup die, True Black saddle stitched ribbon, dimensionals, embossing powder.

June Pixie Challenge

Karen posted these fat quarters for color inspiration. Other than the color inspiration, there weren't a lot of rules. We could use the colors, pick a pattern from the group or just go with a general sewing theme.



My card today is so far out of my comfort zone. I love Betsy Veldman's style of mixing colors, patterns and multiple layers but it is so different from my typical style. I'm trying, I'm really trying. Oh, and I did ink up 2 sets I've never used before.



Hope you enjoy. Thanks for stopping by.

Supplies:
Stamps: Fillable Frames #4, Quilters Sampler
Card Stock: Terra Cotta Tile, Vintage Cream, Lemon Tart
Ink: Terra Cotta Tile, Simply Chartruese
