Papertrey Ink August Blog Hop Photo Inspiration

There are so many different bits of inspiration you could take from this beautiful photo.  I decided to stamp my background on kraft with versamark ink to represent the inside of the vintage suitcase.  Then I used the towel pattern as inspiration for the floral pattern I stapmed on the bottom portion of my card using Garden Of Life.



Thanks for coming by.
I can't wait to see your project for the hop!


Cardstock: PTI Rustic White, Kraft
Stamps: PTI Iconic Images, Garden Of Life
Ink: PTI Pure Poppy, Memento Bamboo, StazOn Brown, PTI Tea Dye Duo, Versamark
Other: Satin Ribbon, Corner Rounder Punch

    Those flowers are spot on and the entire card looks so pretty. You can see where the inspiration came from and yet it is your very own version of the inspiration.
