Another PaperTrey Ink Favorite

Hello Peeps! Wishing all of you great dads out there "Happy Father's Day!"

Today I am showing one of my favorite sets! The card uses Papertrey Ink's Year of Flowers - Violet Image. First off, I used their Tin Types Impression Plate on white text paper...these plates are fabulous and if you haven't seen what they have done with their dies and plates, well you are just missing out! I used mine with the Cuttlebug and it is too easy peasy! I used Papertrey's 2008 Bitty Dot Basics in Purple. I then used Spellbinder's Nestabilities Peony and colored the outside with my Silver Krylon Leafing Pen. I cut out my Violet, which I stamped and colored with my Copic Markers twice and put them on dimensionals. I also colored the leaves and cut them out and put them on dimensionals. For the center of the flower I used a spacer with a purple rhinestone in the middle. I used Spellbinders Long Deckled Edge Nestabilities for the sentiment, which also comes from the Papertrey Year of Flowers - Violet set. I then used a template from Lauren Meader's My Time Made Easy called Pucker Up...it was so easy and it took no time. I again used the Tin Types Impression Plate on white text paper added the silver pearls and the ribbon came from my stash.

Thanks for your visit and I hope you like what you see...I certainly had a great time making it! You can click on the pic to see a bigger picture of the photo. Have a wonderful week all!!
