Welcome to the March PTI Blog Hop! I couldn't resist playing along with this blog hop as the inspiration photo for this challenge was so beautiful!
The card I made based on this photo came together so quickly! I LOVED working with these colors and will have to do it again soon!
I first stamped the background with Aqua Mist and Harvest Gold ink. Let me tell you that I LOVE that Harvest Gold ink! It stamps wonderfully! I really, really like this background stamp too, especially that you can so easily use 2 colors to make your own custom backgrounds each time. I really hope PTI makes more background stamps that work just like this one!
Here is a closeup of the top. I tucked one of the Banner Border die cuts under a couple of strips of cardstock. I scored it before I inserted it so that it sticks up slightly to add an interesting element to the card. Then, I tied Lemondrop twine from The Twinery around the top once.
For the bottom of the card I die cut 3 frames with the new Framed Out #2 die and cut the aqua one in half to adhere on each side of the card. The sentiment panel is popped up with pop dots.
Thank you so much for stopping by! I hope you enjoy your day!

I love your use of the Medallion background set! Those colors really look great together :) And what a neat way to use the Framed out set!
Love the white space, Jen, with those soft and subtle colors and the medallion background. Great creative use of dies. The twine adds just the finishing touch. Gotta get the Framed Out set I can see now.
Such a cute idea to use a row of mini frames:) And your stamped background is just perfect! Have a great Sunday Jen!
Beautiful card. I so agree about that background set. I love having a two tone background. I am really regretting not getting that frame set with my release order. I love what you did with it.
