May 2013 Papertrey Ink Blog Hop

Yay! It's that time again for the chance to see all the creative things everyone can come up with using Papertrey Ink (and other crafting)products, a challenge, and their own imagination.

This month the challenge was to use some Papertrey Ink floral stamps, dies, etc (there are so many lovely ones) and a color scheme to come up with your own one of a kind creation. I chose the yellow color scheme although I like them all.

Here's what I came up with. My card included more paper piecing because I am

still in love with the technique that Melissa Phillips featured on this week's Make It Monday. 

If you haven't seen it, go here:

I made the flower with paper punches using a technique similar to the how-to I wrote about here:
