Welcome to PTI's April Blog Hop! We have the following inspiration photo to use for our cards.
And here is the card I've made. It uses the "You've Been Framed: Oval" die and stamps, as well as the flowers and stamps from Bitty Bouquet. For the ombre background, I used a sheet from the "Beautiful Brushstrokes" patterned paper. I felt a bit nostalgic, so dug out some pearl adhesives and an old flourish die for embellishments.
Inks: Sweet Blush, Hibiscus Burst, Berry Sorbet, Enchanted Evening, Limeade Ice
Soooo Pretty! Love how you interrupted the inspirational photo, I find that is one of the most fascinating things about these Blog Hops! Your flowers from the Bitty set are just lovely cascading like that, makes me think of a beautiful hanging basket (someday I hope to hang some, just need the warmth to come and stay!) LOVE your ombre background too, the pretty shades of pink are well.....pretty! :) Have a happy day!!!
