Papertrey April Blog Hop



Its that time of the month again! Papertrey's Inspiration Challenge for this month is this beautiful photo and I was inspired to make three cards since my card to-do list for April and May is so long!



For my first card, I was inspired by the colors in the inspiration photo so I made this card using Raspberry Fizz and Spring Rain with an older set - All About You & All About You Additions set. Finally used a bit of the Raspberry Fizz patterned paper too.



For my second card, I used these colors to make a card for my niece's upcoming birthday. I had just intended on using my newly acquired Just The Ticket border die but also wanted to incorporate something 'princessy' for her so I used the castle from the Little Princess set.



For my third card, I was drawn to the stack of patterns and colors in the photo which I tried to recreate here using the wine bottle tag die and foam dots.



See you around the Blog Hop! Thanks for stopping by!

  12. They are all beautiful! I love the coordinated die cut border on the first one. The second one is very girly ~ I am sure your niece will love it. The third one perfectly captured the stack of fabrics.
