August 2011 Blog Hop

Hello again for the second time today! I hope you have had a fabulous day. I did!!! I shopped, had lunch with a friend, and stamped. What could be better than that? A perfect day! (I paid bills and did house work too ;-)

Anyhooo, the photo above is the inspiration photo for Papertrey's August blog hop. I posted a card earlier today and I just had to try the technique again.

I took two things from the inspiration photo- the damask pattern in the suitcase and the pink flowers with the yellow centers (tossed in some black b/c I love pink and black.)
Supplies: PTI Friends 'till the End (my favorite set), Guideline One Impression plate, Raspberry Fizz CS, Copics, Black satin ribbon from SU, rhinestones. All PTI unless noted!

P.S. If you made a comment earlier today sorry I posted such a similar card again :-) But thank you!

  7. Well, of course I love this one the most! I really like your take on the technique. I realize it's supposed to be Avant Garde, but this is just the slightest bit neater ;)!
