Its the 25th again which means its PTI Blog Hop Day. Lots of amazing creations to see in blogland....
Challenge this month was to take inspiration from an embroidered pattern. So I went to Pintrest and browsed dozens of beautiful embroidered designs. In the end, I chose to create a card with flowers inspired by this striking pillow for sale on Etsy-
I used PTI Mums The Word and heat embossed them in three different colors which proved to be a little more difficult than I had expected. I used brown card stock for the first time in a while. I like the blues and white against the dark brown. KIS:Happy Birthday sentiment embossed in white as well.
I'm linking this to the CASology challenge GARDEN this week as well.
Also entering these into the Seize the Birthday:Anything Goes this week.
Now off to look at all the embroidered-inspired creations....
Thanks so much for stopping by! Hope you have a wonderful weekend!
