Hello x 4

This card was inspired by two challenges.  The first being Papertrey Ink's Make it Monday - DIY Cover Plates and the second being Cure for the Monday Blues -Electric Eclectic .  Here is the picture for the latter challenge, so you can see where I got my inspiration. 

I loved the colours and quilt pattern.  I thought it would be fun to use Papertrey Ink's Heart-2-Heart #2 for die-cutting and stamping.  I first secured the negative in place to do my stamping and then I popped it up to give it a cool look. 

I added my sentiment to the side.  Although I first stamped it in a lighter blue, it was too pale.  I changed it to a brighter ink. 

Oh, I missed the Cure for the Monday Blues last week.  But here's my card for Challenge #9. 

 

I used the captain's wheel stamp from the MFT -Sea set and the sentiment from the Pink Paislee Nantucket set.  I neatly wrapped some baker's twine and tied a bow.  By using VersaFine Majestic Blue ink, the sentiment really popped.  I kept the accents plain by using a couple white and a blue to match the ink. Really liked this card! 

Thanks for the challenge!

Supplies:  Papertrey Ink - Heart-2-Heart #2; VersaFine Habanero; Stampin Up Pixie Pink; Memento Bahama Blue.
