Papertrey Ink January Blog Hop

Hello!  It's been a while since I've played along with the PTI Blog Hop but when I saw the inspiration photo for January's hop I was so inspired to make a card!

The challenge this month was to make a card based on the inspiration photo and use only neutral colors and pinks.

And my card...

I was very inspired by the ombre wall in the top left picture of the inspiration photo and the rows of pink pencils with the gold so that's the direction I went.  I used patterned paper and PTI's Rainbow Stripes die to create the die cut lines.  The "love" was stamped and embossed in gold and then I stamped the heart inside the "o" heart and heat embossed with pink embossing powder.  I love the subtle look that added. All of that was adhered onto my card base that had been impressed with PTI's striped impression plate (which I love but don't believe it is currently in production).  As a final detail, I added a circle that I die cut the inside out of and added it to the corner of my sentiment panel.

Thanks for stopping by!
