Here's a card I made for the PTI swap on Splitcoaststampers. This is the 2nd time I've done a swap with these group of ladies and the cards I've received back have been fabulous! It's fun anticipating what cards will come in the mail next.
This card was made using my CHA stamp set Four of a Kind. The sketch was inspired by Maile Belle's card in Go to Sketches Papercraft magazine (pg. 87). I used the Tin Types impression plate on the top half and then the Beautiful Blooms impression plate on the bottom. Sentiment is from Giga Guidelines. The flower die cut is Beautiful Blooms #1 die. The inside is stamped with the largest flower image in the corner.
I don't know if you can tell but this picture was taken outside on my lanai (porch). My backyard is the golf course so lots of wide open space. It totally brightens up the pictures if you ask me! I don't have to do much editing in iPhoto. If you'd like to see the Christmas card I did for this swap, you can see it here.
Thanks for stopping by and having a look!
